   I asked a simple question and have very much appreciated all of the comments. Whether they be from American or Canadian nurses. I do not see why snide comments need to be made. I think most people come here for support and to have their questions ...

   It is not the first time I have heard of males having a hard time getting into the program. With the shortage of nurses and your great marks, I cannot understand why. Hopefully you will have or will soon receive your acceptance letter! Which cegep...
