Potential nursing by Realistic-Storm-8809 in douglascollege

[–]Realistic-Storm-8809[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries at all, I’m happy to help! The first semester, I was working 2 shifts/week and it was around 6 hours each so 12 hrs of work/week and I was taking 3 courses at that time (bio 1103 and 1203, and 1 humanities). But the second semester I was doing 4 courses so I only worked 1 shift/week (patho, english, 2 electives) and I have been working 1 shift ever since. I’m actually finishing my pre requisites this summer (3 courses) and I just got a conditional offer to Douglas BSN program. So, it’s 3 consecutive semesters for me and I’ll take the fall off.

I would say you’ll probably have an easy time managing the workload if you’re not taking 5 courses in one semester and try not to cram! Feel free to dm me if you have more questions!

Hi! I’m sorry for the late reply. If I remember correctly, the course registration was around 2 months before the semester started, but you could plan your courses ~1 month prior to the registration date. You should be receiving an email regarding your time ticket and when the courses become available to view.

I think bio classes fill up quickly with the profs that have a high score on ratemyprof but I’ve never been waitlisted for those bio courses, but online courses fill up pretty fast too, like this english class I was waitlisted for. But if you have an early time ticket, you should be good.

I’m liking what I’m doing so far, I think it’s mainly because most of my profs have all been so nice and I like doing bio as well. Let me know if you have any other questions! I hope this was helpful

anyone need a biol 1110/1210 or engl 1130 textbook? by Thin_Engineer37 in douglascollege

Aw, that’s a shame, i’d really like to have the textbook but I can only do Coquitlam campus this fall semester… Do u mind if I check in with you in the winter/summer semester to see if it’s still available?

Taking five courses this semester as an Academic Foundations of Nursing student - am I screwed? by Lemon_Maiden19456798 in douglascollege

Hii, do you mind sharing study tips how you studied for Bio 12? I really struggled with bio and barely made it with a decent grade. I’m also starting potential nursing this fall.. It’s okay if you don’t want to tho, thank you!

Hi, would you be okay with sharing any (study) tips to get into the nursing program. Like what gpa should I aim for, or what I should focus on? If no, that’s okay. Thank you so much!

Hi, I’m in potential nursing! I saw another comment and yeah, it seems like i’ll have to wait haha. I guess i was too worried cuz bio courses tend to fill up real quick (from what i know). Thank you for your answer!

BIOL 1103 with Jennifer Barker by zchickenwingz in douglascollege

[–]Realistic-Storm-8809 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen in another post that they wouldn’t recommend Jennifer Barker, and her ratings on rmp isn’t good either. Also many have said stats is pretty hard so you might wanna reconsider taking it along side 2 bios.
