  1. First Year Courses in UBC science +

    jasn replied to ttj93's topic in International Nursing

    Hi ttj93, First year science at UBC is pretty packed and you don't generally have a lot of space to take extra courses. I would also recommend contacting the science advisor for help/questions about...

  2. please give me any informations(goods & bads) about BCIT, UBC and Langara

    jasn replied to moneylover's topic in International Nursing

    You need at least 2 years (60 credits) of university before BCIT will accept you. They look for you to have a certain credits too, typically 3 credits of English, 6 credits of psych or sociology, and...

  3. OB Rotations

    jasn replied to ImThatGuy's topic in General Students

    Assessment on mom and baby. LOTS of teaching (bathing baby, expected output, breastfeeding, recognizing infant cues, baby blues and postpartum depression, healing expectations of mom, etc). Baby...

  4. BCIT Aug 2010/ Jan 2011

    jasn replied to jeffy604's topic in Canada

    srama - i would recommend taking some of the elective courses (critical reading and writing, ethics, etc.). You do have a pretty solid application, so it probably came down to someone else having one...

  5. BCIT Aug 2010/ Jan 2011

    jasn replied to jeffy604's topic in Canada

    You should get an email shortly with all sorts of information about what to do next! I believe the committment fee is something like $200, you usually have a few weeks to pay that. This will be...

  6. UBC's 2 yr Program or BCIT's 3 yr Program

    jasn replied to Hamster84's topic in International Nursing

    hello123, i am quite curious - why is it that you are so against BCIT? I feel as though we have this UBC vs BCIT battle in every

  7. UBC's 2 yr Program or BCIT's 3 yr Program

    jasn replied to Hamster84's topic in International Nursing

    UBC and BCIT have very different programs, but I disagree with the fact that you should choose UBC to become a pediatric nurse at Children's. I'm sure if you asked for the statistics, they would not...

  8. Can new grads start out as public health nurses?

    jasn replied to andpeggy's topic in Public, Community Health

    Hi orangecampino, I looked at your history and saw you're from Vancouver as well! Just wondering if you could shed some insight into your public health experience for final practicum. I am also...

  9. Antibiotic + corticosteroid?

    jasn replied to manchmal's topic in General Nursing

    This thread is so helpful :) I am still confused as to when a patient would be ordered an antibiotic + corticosteroid, versus just an antibiotic (which is what I have typically seen). Is it when the...

  10. BCIT Aug 2010/ Jan 2011

    jasn replied to jeffy604's topic in Canada

    Personally, I have some very opposite views on your points :) I think BCIT has a great program, but I'm getting the sense that you don't agree. -yes, BCIT students get paid for preceptorships while...

  11. Thinking of starting a Nursing School..

    jasn replied to cinsha's topic in International Nursing

    I would recommend choosing a different school. As Fiona mentioned, $30,000 for a two year program is insane. I'm paying less than that for my degree. I live in Vancouver, and in my limited experience...

  12. BCIT Aug 2010/ Jan 2011

    jasn replied to jeffy604's topic in Canada

    Shortlisting is not the same as waitlisting. Say 300 people applied to the Aug intake of BCIT, with 96 spots available. They might shortlist, say, 120 (this is a made-up number!). That means 180...

  13. BCIT August 2008/january 2009 Entry

    jasn replied to Tatbobat's topic in International Nursing

    I don't believe they are doing an interview anymore (they haven't for the past ~2 years). I have heard rumours that they might be bringing the interview back, but as far as I know it is still just...

  14. BCIT August 2008/january 2009 Entry

    jasn replied to Tatbobat's topic in International Nursing

    Hi green_tea, I believe you should hear end of march or early april if you are shortlisted. Then, you usually have 2-3 weeks to submit references, sometimes a short essay (not every intake requires an...
