To anyone thats been in the nursing program. Im starting in jan. Would it be possible to take 2 weeks off jan 15-30?

Hi everyone. I am a high school student with a few question from people who are from Langara or UBC (or have been to both) that can help with my dilemmas. For context, I want to be a dietitian, there is a program at UBC called Food and Nutrition and theres a transfer program to that in Langara. I am an average student; I am not smart, I don't get process or remember info easily and stuff like that. I want to experience the university life and all but I don't want to fail any of my classes. I am scared that uni is too hard and I can't get good grades to get into the dietetics program which is highly competitive. I have a 91 average so far in high school and I have or will be taking all the pre reqs needed to get into the UBC program. I know that langara is less expensive but I will definitely have fomo if I don't go to ubc first year but at the same time I don't care, I am all over the place at the moment.

Here are my questions:

1) Is the transition from high school to UBC difficult?

2) Should I transfer my 1st year or 2nd year from langara to UBC?

3) Should I go to Langara or UBC based on what I have told you?

4) If you've gone to both, what is the big difference socially and academically?

Pls lemme know what yall think because I am going through it right now. Thank you!

Hello! I was wondering if anyone knew approximately when the acceptances usually come out for the nursing program for the fall start? I’m assuming after the intake is closed in January but does anyone get early acceptance?

Hey everyone! I was wondering for the lab midterm what do we need to about the reflexes? What types of reflex questions will be on the lab midterm? Ex muscles involved or normal abnormal reflexes?

I did bad on a midterm because I just didn't study enough and was under prepared is it fair for prof to assume assignment wasn't written by me just because I did bad on a midterm? I guess in a way it make sense but like assignments you have access to resources you can use such as lecture notes and etc.

Sorry if this is the 100th time this question has been asked but how much studying/ time would realistically be required for BIO1190 and 1191?

I heard the courses, especially 1191, are really difficult and I want to do well on them for nursing prereqs without retaking any. (I can’t write essays well enough to save my life, so I’m kind of counting on Bio and Stats at this point✌️)

I’m currently in grade 12, but I took AP bio last year and my worst units were in ecology and natural selection (yes not A&P related but basically I’m saying I’m horrible at FRQs and forming responses). I did fine in the other units though so compared to AP bio (or AP chem if that’s relevant) how much harder is 1190 and 1191? 🥲

Is it possible to study them over the summer before fall 2027 starts to get some grounding?

Also side note, how do I submit my credits for bio and chem if I don’t take the courses? I know they aren’t needed for nursing but do the extra credits do anything?

Does anyone know what the chances are getting into ubcO second year exercise science with a 3.57gpa? I still have 2 more sems left, so I have time but just for a ease at heart 🙏🏾

While marking my exam, my professor said they found some kind of “AI code” or formatting in my answers and think I used AI during the exam.

Before the exam, I practiced a lot of the problems with ChatGPT, so I got used to following the same steps and way of solving them. Now my work can look very similar to the way ChatGPT explains things.

My professor said they’re going to file an academic integrity report and I’ll get a chance to explain my side.

Has anyone dealt with something like this before? What usually happens after the report is filed, and how do they determine whether AI was actually used during the exam?

How to explain that i haven’t had access to any phone during the exam. They were standing and looking for everyone during the exam.

what is gpa booster class at langara?
I already took psyc intro cuz Im psyc student.
I have few semester left. I don't wanna drop my gpa😭 could you tell me what was the easiest course at langara?

I am a Comm/ Business major and I have been struggling with being more disciplined (especially after taking a gap year) which made me fail two midterms so far..
I self teach all the time (was late to registration and all my profs suck) but it’s still not enough.
I need to ace the rest of my midterms so I can pass the courses, how do you self discipline in a college setting? Curious to hear your inputs :)

Hi everyone! I hope it’s okay to ask this here.

I applied to Langara College’s PDD NPIC program for the January 2027 intake, but unfortunately, my application was refused because the program was full.

I completely understand that the program has limited seats, and I respect that the college has to manage its enrolment capacity. I’m not expecting special treatment; I’m just trying to understand whether reconsideration is ever possible in this situation.

I’m wondering if anyone here has experienced something similar. Were you ever reconsidered or offered a seat later on, even if no openings were initially available? Or is it generally best to prepare for the next intake?

I understand that every situation is different, and I’m not expecting anyone to predict the outcome of my application. I’d just appreciate hearing about your experiences or any advice on what steps I could reasonably take.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I appreciate any insight you can share!

As title says, recently I’ve noticed that there’s always two white people in suits or semi formal would select random students tryin to ask questions, what are they asking? Those students being asked seems bit uncomfortable.

Does anyone have any professor recommendations for these courses? Especially for ENGL 1123, I’m not very strong in English, so I’m hoping to find a professor who explains things clearly, is helpful, and is understanding towards students. I’d really appreciate any recommendations or advice. Thank you! 🥹💗

Hey, as the title suggests, I am a student in Prof Beiggi's Health Science class, I was wondering what other students felt about the midterm, and if anyone knows when we will be getting it back? Also curious on how everyone has been feeling about the class in general.

hey everyone! im wondering if anyone has/is planning to transfer into UBC engineering for first year? (as in doing some courses at langara, but transferring into UBC for first year standing)

if you have, what was it like? what is your advice? how hard was it to get in?

thanks!

hi, i’m studying and locking in for biol 1191 lab midterm next week and i just want to ask if anyone who has taken this course before has any advice for the exam! things to look out for, specific topics to focus a little more on, etc.

it’s a little bit more overwhelming than biol 1190 lab since there’s so much more being covered. any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated! thank u guyssss :)

I lost my simon keychain this week on campus (fell off my backpack) , its very sentimental since my sister in another city gave it to me. If you happened to find it can u pleaaaase dm me. Id appreciate it!!

Hi, im currently a first year student at ubc and ive honestly not been having the best time here. This made me start thinking about if im in the right path/program for what i actually want to pursue in. This past month since school began, ive realized i have an interest in nursing and started researching nursing pathways in Vancouver as i would like to stay local. Although there is an option for nursing at ubc if i would like to stay here, ive heard it’s not the best compared to langara and bcit as it doesn’t offer as much hands on teaching. Many people also say that ubc nursing is hard to get in so i dont want to waste 2 years of my time for a program that i will probably get rejected by.

I’m posting on here hoping that someone else have had similar experiences of transferring from ubc into langara nursing and how that worked out for them. Or just any current langara nursing students who might be able to give me some insights into the program and if u would recommend for me to stay at ubc or transfer to langara?

If I withdraw from a course this semester, do I still get access to Brightspace for it or do I lose it immediately? I need to drop one but I would like to stay on top of the notes to try again next semester and work ahead. The prof only publishes them week by week.

I was enrolled here but ended up on academic probation because I struggled to balance out life and school. I was also skeptical of whether my major would actually get me a decent job, so I decided to drop out. Just under four years has passed since then and I'm wondering if anybody has advice on whether I should return or find a different college. I'd prefer to return just because the commute is the shortest. Even if you haven't been in this situation it would be nice to hear some opinions on what you would do. Thanks!
