CURLYKATE - I graduated from Centennial College I know people don't think much of the school but I enjoyed the program overall. I used all my notes as reference guides and bought Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-PN Examination and Mosby's Comprehensive Review of Practical Nursing for the NCLEX-PN Exam. I would suggest if you can buy the textbooks the readings help. You will be fine with this program time management is important you can do it. As for Seneca's full time program I have 2 friends who graduated from the program and both have nothing but good things to say about the program. I have not heard anything bad about the program either. Keep up with the readings and you will be fine. t I wouldn't make it but before you know it you will be done and getting read for the cprne exam.

This is to you Xyrodon. I do not work for the CNO and like CURLYKATE Seneca College's part time issues have been going on for a long time students buying test banks and cheating or taking pictures of the test and passing them to other students a high GPA from your program (Seneca's part time program not full time ) sadly means nothing. My coworker is a part time Seneca honor student who can not pass the CNO exam and is onto her final attempt with the CNO now. Your comments is irrelevant and annoying you show focus on bridging the gap of where you are having issues.

My suggestion would be if you are still in your final term talk to your profs ask for help. Have you done any test if so what was your mark from that you should know where you stand.

A high GPA from the part time program is nothing because of the cheating involved. So stop posting high GPA in the part time program when I am sure without a doubt those students cheated. Some recommendations forget about the GPA issue and focus on what it is you are not getting or understanding to pass the test.

Sorry I also meant to say everyone's experience will be different don't get discouraged and in my opinion community nursing has a lot of benefits and lots to learn as well. Best of luck.

Unfortunately, I have not heard good reviews, they pay per client visit not hourly if it is your weekend to work you do your shift and are oncall after hours so it's like you are working 48 hours straight. I might be wrong here but this is what I have heard.

Seneca's program has a LOT of problems and they are trying to change it. and I would not only focus on one school only.

Yes you can work while in the flex at Centennial.

Can I ask why do you want to apply only to Seneca? Seneca's part time nursing program is garbage and you should aim to apply to any college that would accept you no only Seneca.

Can I ask why do you want to apply only to Seneca? Seneca's nursing program is not that great why would you not consider any college that would accept you after you have done your upgrading?

Centennial is known to have one of the best nursing programs around so you should be proud that you were accepted. Work hard and you can do it.

They are making reference to Seneca's part time program which is completely different from King.

Georgian has a better nursing program so that most likely would be your best bet.

Both colleges are good but I know for a fact that Georgian college has one of the best nursing labs it is state of the art all new- Barrie location. Try to get feedback from people who are in the programs that will give you a feel for what it will be like and you can make your decision. Best of luck.

Have you considered doing an RPN specialty certificate then applying to RN at Nississing or UOIT or you could even ask Centennial if they would take into account a RPN specialty GPA in addition. Look into Centennial's Hybrid program. Another option since you are already in Athabasca I am assuming you have completed year one just work at finishing up. If you think you can do Athabasca then stick it out.
