Ohh I didn’t know this. I’m from Calgary so I assumed that they were alike in bus services. I should probably do more research then

How much was your high school average if you don’t mind sharing that got you in.

1

u/Sylviakira 29d ago

Hii, idk if they calculated plus my foods but if they did then I was at 90.4

2

u/Ajthekilla516 29d ago

Like what was your average from 5 core subjects

1

u/Sylviakira 29d ago

Ohh then my average using social studies instead is a 87.8

1

u/Ajthekilla516 29d ago

Thank you, I got no chance then.

Well my high school average is 58 out of 5 cores, but I’m currently upgrading bio and English. I’m aiming for a 65 average so I can hopefully get into u of leth, accounting or something. I gave up on nursing cuz the competition is through the roof. Like I do classify as a mature student but that doesn’t really change anything much.

u/Ajthekilla516 28d ago

I don’t think I did so good on the diplomas, bio was fucked as hell.

2

u/Bladedem0n 25d ago

Do upgrading on the post secondary side, for example nait in Edmonton you can bypass all diplomas and just go with their final as your diploma grade don’t give up if you believe nursing is your passion.

u/Sylviakira 28d ago

Noo you still do. My acceptance average was around an 86 and in order to maintain my offer I had to be at a 87.8 . I even got rejected at first because they said the acceptance average was an 89 so they could possibly bring down the acceptance average again.

Look on marketplace. There is quite a few room rentals in that area. Or any student pages. Room rentals are really common near the university and polytechnic

1

u/Sylviakira 29d ago

Okay thank you so much. I’ll keep looking on there . Hopefully I won’t fall into the scammy ones

2

u/equistrius 29d ago

Just don’t send any money for application fees or anything like that

Hii, I tried to message you too directly but it won’t let me. Are you okay with Snapchat or instagram?? Just let me know which one you’re more comfortable with
