    Here in Qld if you have done your Dip Nursing (EN) then you can RPL 1 year off your Bachelor of Nursing course.

    Qld cut off dates for uni application are usually Sept 30 every year.

    My tip for exams.... -
    - start your study at least 2 weeks before the exam,
    - write out/answer all of the learning objectives in your notebook.
    - revise them over and over in the few days before the exam.
    You'd be surprised what your short term memory can handle!

    oh yeah Ambah! I say don't leave it to the last minute but I know that for me I don't retain the info unless I cram! LOL!
    RPL at UniSA for EN's is pretty limited. They get NC1 off, don't do the NC2 placement (from memory), don't have to do sociology. But I think they have to do the rest. Not a lot when you think about it...

    Mother Goose...I too have an assignment past due date. If i dont get it in soon I may fail it so im going to try and get it done this weekend. Its for Society and Culture....did you have to do that? What a crappy subject, I can see its relevance to Nursing but it is so boring, mostly due to the boring tutor and the lecturer is a Sociology FREAK.
    I was thinking of maybe picking up an extra subject externally next year, I just don't know that I would have to motivation to actually do it without the lecturer pushing it down my throat, and I have so much going on at home that I would probably end up doing washing instead of studying. I might give it a go with an easy subject, I think a subject like biosciences would be hard to do externally though, I get quite a lot out of going to the lectures.
