@WJJ I found both the midterm and final very fair! You're allowed a cheat sheet with formulas/notes for both the exams. 

Sorry to go a bit off topic haha @IslanderEllie just wondering re: the final exam if you recall what reference information is provided for the questions, for example cutoff scores for t tests or F ratios etc. I tried asking the tutor who gave a pretty useless answer ("no reference tables are provided") and no one responds to the forum questions 😖 obviously cramming lots onto my cheat sheets but there's soooo many reference tables!

Hi Everyone, 

I am just wondering if anyone knows if one can work during the program for UVIC/UBC?

I somehow remembered seeing somewhere that we cannot? But I can't recall where I saw that..

Any insight would be much appreciated!!

Hey! I haven't heard that we cannot work as nurses during the program. But I will say... I've read some online forums indicating that some nurses were able to work about 20 hours/week. They said it was difficult to maintain a work/life balance but definitely possible!

I declined my UVic spot and my application was officially changed to canceled on April 5, in case that's helpful!

RE: Uvic I was told weeks ago I'm number 2 on WL and haven't heard anything since. I actually bit the bullet and emailed again yesterday to see if there was any movement. Will report back!

For those of you on UVIC waitlist, they said they will start working on the waitlisted applicants at the end of April. Hopefully this helps!

During the UBC info session they said it may be difficult but it can be done as they understand people may need to work to pay rent/bills etc.  But once practicums start it may be a bit harder.
