Or not. Because I woke up to sun, blue skies and chirping birds and ended up with torrential downpour by 2pm. I swear, Vancouver does not understand what rain really is. I also forgot how much I missed thunder and lightening. It’s kind of terrifyingly beautiful. Look at me, getting all poetic and stuff… Anyway, [...] Continue reading →Rejection Nightmare

I’m losing my mind… 6 days left until the big decision for UBC med arrives. I woke up from a bad dream today where I was the only one rejected and everyone else was accepted… Too scary. I have low … Continue reading → Continue reading → -

Hi Lorie,
We do not have a bookable computer lab in the Chapman Learning Commons. You may wish to contact the Faculty of Arts. They occasionally have labs available to book: http://www.arts.ubc.ca/index.php?id=3877

I am starting the MN-NP program at the School of Nursing in the fall. I am interested in taking any course that will assist me in either public speaking, accelerating academically and/or acquiring personal coaching services. Could you direct me to someone who could help me?
Thank you,
Kelly Hick
Hi Kelly,
We’re thrilled that you’re taking a proactive approach to learning! While there’s no courses offered on this sort of thing, there’s certainly lots of resources for you. Your best bet would be to check out the Toolkits on our website. Under the tab Student Toolkits, we have learning modules, videos, and tips on topics like Time Management, Presentation Skills (Public Speaking), Textbook Reading, and Exam Prep which will help you holistically improve your approach to school. We also offer Tutoring and Peer Academic Coaching. Once school starts, setting up a regular appointment with a Peer Academic Coach might be the best way to stay on top of your work and talk with someone who is trained to help you succeed!
Best of luck,
Gillian
