  1. CRNE Feb 2011

    CanadianGirl79 replied to man78's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    thank you for your reply. i agree - if taking the rpn exam is an option after one fails the rn exam 3 times, the candidate should consider doing it if they want to be a nurse. i would just hope that...

  2. CPNRE JANUARY 2011 TEST TAKER/s

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    Ugh. I Fed-ex'd my documents and application in to the CNO to be sure it got there. I called yesterday to make sure they had my stuff, and they said they had nothing! I told them Fed-Ex showed that...

  3. Resume troubles

    CanadianGirl79 replied to mLPN79's topic in International Nursing

    If you can, try going back to your college you graduated from. Many colleges offer their graduates help with resumes and cover letters through their career

  4. CRNE Feb 2011

    CanadianGirl79 replied to man78's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    while i'm sure no offense was meant, i always find it a bit insulting when people ask about becoming an rpn if they fail the rn exam or can't handle doing their rn in school. nursing school for rpns...

  5. Part-time RPN Program

    CanadianGirl79 replied to JuliWB's topic in International Nursing

    I did have previous schooling - I have a BA in history. I was able to use some of my credits to avoid the gen ed classes. That said, I actually only went part-time while my son was a baby. I took a...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    Not yet. But it's only been like, 7 days for me since I sent it in. They said to allow 15. I'm worried though, as I'm starting orientation for my new job on Monday! The first week is classroom,...

  7. Part-time RPN Program

    CanadianGirl79 replied to JuliWB's topic in International Nursing

    Centennial College has a part-time bridge program. It's the "Flex" program. :) And to the OP - Sheridan College also has a part-time PN program, as do Mohawk and Conestoga - I think most places do,...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to man78's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I don't know if it's different for the RN exam, but for the January RPN exam, results seemed to be sent out pretty much 5 weeks to the day of the exam. Ontario was pretty much last to get results...

  10. Police Clearances for Ontario

    CanadianGirl79 replied to diver117's topic in International Nursing

    Wow, what town are you in, and which school? I went to Sheridan, and I got the CPIC in Oakville, and it took me about a week to get back. That was in September. I just applied for a new CPIC in...

  12. CPNRE JANUARY 2011 TEST TAKER/s

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    Vulcan, where do you live? Are you in Ontario? I have some friends from my program in Ontario who also don't have their results. Some are in Brampton, others in the GTA - it seems to depend a lot on...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I had that book too. I also used Mosby's Canadian Comprehensive Review of Nursing, looked at Potter & Perry, and used the ASI book to practice questions. I also did the ASI online predictor...

  14. CPNRE JANUARY 2011 TEST TAKER/s

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    If you really feel they may have made a mistake, and can spare the money, then for sure get them to remark it. Look at it this way: it can't hurt, but could potentially mean all the difference....

  15. CPNRE JANUARY 2011 TEST TAKER/s

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    Do you know how many questions you failed by? I ask because if it were me, and it said I failed by say, 30 questions, I probably wouldn't pay the $56, but if I failed by, say, 6 questions, I most...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I suck at waiting too. Right now we are waiting for a diagnosis for my son, and for his liver enzymes to go down (they're currently over 2000!!). Thanks for your wishes, we are hoping they figure out...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    Nikismom, where do you live? I'm in Burlington and just got my result today. Some friends of mine haven't gotten theirs yet either. I think it depends on area and how many of the substations it...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I passed!!! I so needed good news. My son is in hospital with an undiagnosed liver issue. They've ruled out some things, but have no clue what it

    CanadianGirl79 replied to winterspice's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I know, same here. And I said to the lady that I was scared if I failed, I wouldn't get them in time to sign up for the next exam, but she promised they'd arrive in time for that. Still, this...

    CanadianGirl79 replied to lo24's topic in International Nursing

    I'm a new grad PN, so I'm just going by what we were told in school. Thanks for the clarification, though! I'm glad to hear that it's not just rural areas where PNs can be hired into ICUs and given...
