Hi everyone! Just wondering...how do they factor grades into admissions? I know it's done by preferential points but it seems odd that if two people have a bachelor's degree and gpa's of 2.0 vs 4.0 they have the same chance of admission by the points system...

Does anyone know when the application for Fall 2015 opens?

Thanks guys! I'm taking LIBS 7002 this semester and 7001 next semester so hopefully that'll do it:D

I just received the email:( non-offer! WAH! I guess I'll reapply with the LIBS courses:( good luck everyone!

Hey! Sorry I haven't taken the BCIT challenge exam...I opted to do the whole course online instead LOL! On the NIDES website you click "First Assignments" then submit the one for Biology 12. From there they'll send you a login and you can complete the course (if that's what you want to do, that's awesome that the deadline for the challenge exam was extended!!)

Thanks!! That makes me feel better...simple math I can do haha!

Hi Smiley:D I have a question for you...Math isn't my strongest point and I had to study really hard just to get a B on the Math equivalency exam. Are the courses in the Nursing program really math intensive? Thanks:D and thanks for being so helpful!!

Hi dog_prints! I just redid Biology 12 and I did it completely online with NIDES (North Island Distance Education School). I know you don't have a lot of time, but I did the course in a few days (having had the same thing happen to me, I had taken Bio in University but it wasn't transferrable...but trust me the material is pretty simple in comparison!). Maybe if you registered today you could have it done! But it's like smiley said, if you have to wait until August you could always strengthen your application:) Good luck!

Hi everyone! I've also been obsessively creeping these forums so I thought it was time to actually join:) A little about me... I've got 90 post secondary credits, I'm a volunteer with CNIB, have done ESL mentoring (helping ESL students improve their reading and writing) and have volunteered on a crisis line for the past year. Does anyone know if they take into account your high school grades? I was a pretty good student before I slacked off in post-secondary (boo!) Wishing everyone luck for the January 2013 intake and I hope to see you guys there!
