What I'm wondering, is with the pre class stuff, since we don't actually hand it in, can't I just do the reading portion and not worry about answering the questions? I'm finding myself just skimming the material looking for the answers, and not real...

Honestly, I am really struggling. I have some health conditions that I thought were under control but everything has flared up and I've missed a lot already. I am determined to stay in the course though, and am just trying to work around my health ...

Andrea, Do we have the same placement person the entire course? Or different every semester? I have ****** this semester and I do like her, but I think it would be interesting to have all of them over the 4 semesters.

Andrea, I need you!!! I just have some questions that I didn't really want to ask in front of the entire class...because I feel like an idiot. I'll just chalk it up to me not being a student for the last 14 years!

Haha yeah Andrea, that was me. I bailed at lunch. I felt like crap and was honestly bored out of my mind. I felt like I wasn't learning anything, just hearing information I could easily find on my own. I'm going to head to campus early tomorrow to...

I really can't remember at all, I'm sorry. Keep in mind, it's all multiple choice.

Just got back from orientation. I was so bored and not feeling great so I bailed halfway through. I think I'm doing alright as far as knowing what's what. Some of the homework stuff is already posted on e-learn. Crazy! I'm excited but overwhelm...

The whole science portion was SO broad, I wish I could tell you. The science questions ran the gammut from biology to chemistry to just common knowledge stuff. I did terrible on science but did GREAT on everything else and was accepted. Helped tha...

Well it looks like Mohawk has confirmed my enrollment as that's no longer listed when I check my osap status. That makes me feel a little better. Man this feels so confusing and unorganized!

Yup mine says that too. I'm ok with that...it's a morning to sleep in. I have a weird sleep disorder and sleep better from about 3 or 4 am to 11 or 12. So if I can sleep late, I'll take it!

So, my OSAP has not come in which means no money for books. Awesome. I am so nervous for tomorrow. Still don't have a paramed appointment. Just did my CPR on Saturday. I'm freaking out. Andrea, Can you explain what the "placekeeping" blocks are...

Thanks Andrea! I'm getting so excited/nervous/anxious/excited. Also fingers crossed that my OSAP rolls into my bank account soon. LOL!

Can anyone who has done first semester, confirm which books you actually HAD to buy? The book list for Health and Healing is a little long...wondering if all the books are ACTUALLY required or not. List says they are. But it just seems like a lot ...

I think ParaMed is now closed until Jan 2? I should have made an appointment...dang it! HepB took me 3 tries to meet the standard for "immune" in bloodwork.

So my bloodwork says inconclusive for immunity to measles, mumps, rubella. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrreat. I just had a booster last year. What to do, what to do. Has everyone done their CPR already? I'm going to the Red Cross to do it on the 27th.

Picked up my police check today and went up to Mohawk and got my student card. Now I'm just trying to figure out if I can start using it to take the bus or not. The HSR sticker on it just says "Expires April 20, 2013". I should test this theory wh...

Magal, I see you and I will be in class together!

Oh, book list is on McMaster University's site as the books can be purchased at the bookstore there. Not sure if this link works or not as it's all drop down menus to find your specific list. Textbook Listing | McMaster University Campus Store I'm ...

ACK! I've missed out on all the posting action! Has anyone done their paramed appointment yet? I am waiting for my bloodwork for my mmr and varicella immunity to come back. Then I'm going to schedule it. I haven't done my CPR yet. *shame*. I need...

Ooooh student card! Which means cheap movies at Empire Theatres downtown. LOL

I'm 7151IHMAC. I didn't see a lot of difference in some of the schedules. I just picked the first one that looked favourable for a day off! LOL

I actually have to go out to Mac tomorrow for a cT so I likely won't be going back out there on Wednesday. I might have to work anyway. Oh the joys of being on-call.

REGISTERED!!!! I have Mondays off because I already did a COMM course back in my first trip through Mohawk and got a 92...so I am NOT doing it again! It finally feels real and I am SO excited!

@starfish...thanks for much for your response! I actually work at the Juravinski as an Environmental Aide. Now I'm so curious on which ward you're doing your placement. I am desperate to have a surgical placement because I know how beneficial it i...

And hello to everyone that is starting in January! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!
