Congratulations to everyone starting in September! I'm so excited for you guys! And to mylove87, how are you finding the program? Just an update on the HOAE, you were all right... it isn't something you can really study for. The time limit added so much pressure that I mainly relied on intuition for most of the questions. As you said TheSkyIsPurple, you have to trust yourself. Unfortunately, Sheridan doesn't release the results so I don't know how I did. Good news though, Conestoga sent me an offer! Although it isn't really my first choice because I live so far from the campus, I'm so grateful! I was just wondering if anyone knew if accepting on OntarioColleges would affect your other applications? I read in another thread that they inform the other colleges when you have accepted an offer. The Conestoga offer expires early and I'm waiting on Sheridan or George Brown, since they're the closest to where I live, but I've read they don't start processing applications till September. Waiting is so stressful haha, how are you guys doing on the practicum requirements? I hope everyone is doing well .

Thank you so much for your replies! There isn't much information out there about the HOAE so your experiences have been insightful. I am also really relieved that there won't be any complicated physics questions, that was the main thing I was anxious about. Thank you again!

To everyone who has taken the HOAE, how did you prepare for it? I have mine scheduled for next week and I'm kind of overwhelmed by the Natural Sciences section, specially since I have never taken Physics. How did you find the questions? Were they very detailed and complicated or general overviews? How were the other sections? Thank you for all your insights!

Thanks for the percentage breakdown and congratulations on the acceptance!

Thank you so much for all those details, I never knew they added 10% extra credit for U level courses. That's good to hear! Do they do that for all the colleges or just Conestoga? So basically acceptance into a program that requires the HOAE test is a two-step process? They check your grades first then offer then check your HOAE results and give a final offer? Thanks again! Congratulations and good luck to you as well!

Any January 2015 Practical Nursing hopefuls out there? I applied to Sheridan, George Brown, Centennial, Conestoga and Mohawk. I was just wondering if anyone is familiar with the HOAE testing, this might be a silly question but can you register for the test only after they have offered you to take it? The nerves of waiting are getting to me, three to four more months!
