  1. Ontario- HOAE results? 'Normalized' score?

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to starfish33's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I got in during the first wave of acceptances, and my scores were as follows: Mandatory courses Average: Approx 90%+. Didnt calculate the exact average but had everything over the 90% threshold....

  2. Practical Nursing January 2015 Applicants

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Guest 828252's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Um, well I cant say for sure what marks they want - but for me personally my marks are above in the thread : ) - What I can tell you (now that I finished orientation) is that over 1200 people applied...

  3. Practical Nursing January 2015 Applicants

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Guest 828252's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Accepting anything will NOT affect other offers at all! So dont worry about that. Accept what you want at first, and you can always accept a different one afterwards without anything bad happening....

  5. Overweight/underweight Nurses

    TheSkyIsPurple posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I was looking over the threads of the past, and I noticed a TON of threads that were closed about this matter from many years ago. Id just like to say a few things about this topic, and ask for your...

  6. Overweight/underweight Nurses

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to TheSkyIsPurple's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Didnt mean for it to come across that way. Its been hard as hell trying to stay on track, and I suppose I more or less wanted to show support - didnt mean anything more that just that - although I can...

  9. I'm so nervous and so excited.

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to sunshine.jones's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This mirrors my thoughts and experiences after I graduated with a bachelors as well. Depression hit, and I hated working in an office. I'm doing exactly what you are now at the age of 26 =) Best of...

  10. What to do: ED physician brought dog to work

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to skinzvictory's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    This is why we can't have nice things. I'd be very happy having a dog nearby. I find them comforting and often find kids are more dirty and less well behaved than dogs are, yet we accept them...

  11. Practical Nursing January 2015 Applicants

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Guest 828252's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Oh right, about the time.... I finished in about an hour and a bit. NEVER ran out of time, or even came close to. The trick is to not doubt yourself or second guess yourself. Go through the test with...

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Guest 828252's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Oh, I didnt study for it AT ALL. Like, zip, nil. My mum was on me constantly telling me to study - but honestly, studying would have been a waste of time. A LOT of the things on that test had...

  15. UFV Jan 2015 intake

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Ms_chu's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I think you have to have biology completed within a certain time before you apply. For Conestoga I believe its 4 years? I dont remember, but you might have to redo a bio for a

  16. RPN Program Books Question...Ontario

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to TheSkyIsPurple's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I cant even imagine how that is. The passion I mean. I graduated, got myself a good paying office job, and HATED every second of it. It was literally all excel spreadsheets and number crunching....

  17. RPN Program Books Question...Ontario

    TheSkyIsPurple posted a topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I have a few questions and concerns. I am a graduate from UW, and Ive noticed that I bought thousands of dollars worth of books, only to crack one or two open MAYBE once or twice. So my question for...

  18. Humber RPN Admission test - chemistry

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to rpnstudy's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    This is going to sound strange but.... Dont study for the HOAE. Honestly. None of the questions really require prior knowledge you can study for. Almost all of the questions are common sense items,...

  19. RPN Program Books Question...Ontario

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to TheSkyIsPurple's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Thats really good to hear. Im looking forward to working in a psych hospital, but many of my friends who do said they have a hard time moving to clinics or hospitals because of the difference in...

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Guest 828252's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    They used to add 20% a few years ago but they said the grade point average became ridiculous (98-99%) so they had to drop 10% and add in the HOAE. (Thats what the registrar told me, so my info is...

  21. RPN Program Books Question...Ontario

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to TheSkyIsPurple's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Every post secondary school does that, and it makes me fume so much... We seriously had courses where we paid over 200 dollars for a book, and never even OPENED It. @____@ Makes me wonder if some of...

  22. Any benefits to a pre-health program to get into BscN?

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to Macruse's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Its too expensive and too long for what it is. You can complete all the requirements for under 50 bucks at an Adult learning school, and complete it in under 5 months

  23. Nursing school in Canada (except in Ottawa)

    TheSkyIsPurple replied to ktrop03's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I found the requirements for RPN and RN VERY high in the GTA area (where I live). I know many people who couldnt get in after 4-5 tries for the RPN. For RN, many BioMed university graduates are also...
