    Just a heads up to people without access to doodle, I just checked and it currently says 206 participants...checked from my laptop. I still have a feeling the number is inflated, and hope those...

    Unfortunately, the "new format" is throwing all of us for a bit of a loop...personally, I would've loved to meet everyone face to face at the traditional MMIs. Bcastle is right in the fact that the...

    Regardless of whether or not the interview solely determines our acceptance, I think it would be wise to put our absolute best foot forward...even if it turns out that the interview counts for less...

    It'll be important for those who get in and become nurses to remember this feeling, and to remember the people who didnt get in when it comes time to volunteer to be preceptors for students. Maybe...

    Hi Beaker1, I opened the doodle app to give it a look, currently it's extremely laggy and is displaying 207 participants...I have a feeling that the doubling up issue hasnt been resolved. I received a...

    Thanks for the offer of advice too Whichroad. Thankfully, my ethics are well-in-line with UBCnursing...I just have to work out the best way to express it in 7 minute increments (I have a tendency to...

    Thanks for the vote of confidence Whichroad, despite my experience...when something means as much as this, I am nervous. I think everyone is nervous...and if they arent, they either dont care, or...

    Yup, almost certain the "why should we pick you?" question will be there...one classic interview question Ive always loved is "what are your weaknesses?". I think well have one common sense question...

    I hope people still keep coming to the forum even after the facebook group gets set up. I dont have facebook, and in all honesty really would love to stay off of it (not for paranoid anonymity...

    I'm still finding it hard to believe that all of this is going to come down to a 15 minute on-line interview...stressful...although they would be more stressful, I sort of wish we were doing the MMIs...
