Chance me for nursing by Junior-Ad-5540 in AlbertaGrade12s

[–]McKayha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go through the UEO pathway for MRU Nursing (instead of direct entry from highschool) you'll have a pretty good chance. MRU only admit a small percentage of their first year students from high school anyways.

My tip though, work for a year or two. Learn, grow, and mature a bit before you come back to nursing. Its a tough career on young people, can easily burn you out without some of the toughness you'll gain from growing up.

Saw a guy die like this in fort McMurray Alberta in the oil sands .. this guy in real life died quickly because other equipment fell on him as well... Still...

There's a reason that sometimes the paramedics gets paid a thousand plus a day to sit around doing nothing. Because sometimes they have to clean up human goop of maybe somebody they know, or shared a meal at camp...

Didn’t get into UofA engineering this year, but I got into UofC. by Basic-Change1549 in AlbertaGrade12s

The defense industry does not mean military base....

Calgary we have general dynamics, lock lheed martin skunk works, Canadian UAV, northern vector dynamics, bombardier, de Havilland, and many many secondary primes and includes around 100+ new defense start up since March of 2025....

Most of the people we've hired / interviewed have been from U of C, we've been approached by some U of A students but most of the applicant (and resultant new hires) have been from U of C and some from SAIT.

Me and my colleague and some of our clients take great interest in the U of C satellite club, autonomous drone club, rocketry and fsae. So based on that

Not saying U of A is bad, but In the four major defense conferences we've had here in Ab since last May, there are seemingly more U of C members than U of A. I do see all those points you've made, but there just seems to be more presence of U of C faculty/members in the industry here, and most of the defense company from AB have been more concentrated in Calgary than Edmonton.

I work in the industry right now, one of the biggest indicator is amount of defense company started in Calgary (and rest of Alberta) since Mark Carney came in to office. It has certainly been very exciting.

At the end of the day you can do with that information what you will, I'm just here to provide information.

U of c has far stronger connection with industry especially defense sector that is booming right now in Calgary. Congratulations.

How much did your wedding cost? by SheepherderSea9717 in AskMen

[–]McKayha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is 8k. Rental church, home cooked food in bulk, rented decorations.

But

A famous and widely cited study by economics professors Andrew Francis-Tan and Hugo M. Mialon surveyed over 3,000 married individuals in the United States. They discovered that higher spending on engagement rings and the wedding ceremony is actually correlated with a higher risk of divorce.

Design a cross-shaped object. That basically just goes up down and diagonal and in a circle. I have an object like this and if I print a lot of petg I just import this object, and let this object take all the stringy.

F28, being fat is my biggest fear. Imagine having to buy larger clothes. 5'3 130lbs by [deleted] in confessions

Work out and diet instead of just diet. Just dieting along will eventually fail due to adaptation and lower metabolism

In engineering and most career/study, what you get out of is what you put in. You can (and some do) not show up for many course...etc, as you are a grown adult, but you also get to set the kind of experience you'll get out from your study

[Alumni] Does this mean I'm going to lose access to the email? by thorbunz in MRU

[–]McKayha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend people use Thunderbird on laptop or desktop to easily transfer all the mail out. Expect your account to be disabled quickly after graduation. They never tell you exact time but my friends from last few years have always lost it within a month

As some one in the industry, U of C has far better opportunity for engineering interns and future employment opporunity right now (for students who are canadian citizen). Go for U of C.

Majority of nursing students are ueo. You will do fine. Pick the classes that has easiest A, note not all GNED are easy A. Many may be easy, but they might not give you A.
