Yeah, you just need to provide evidence that you've commenced the hep b course.
You don't need your first aid certificate but if I remember correctly you have to pass a short in-class CPR practical test, and get a sheet signed before going to clinical; it's very straight forward. You also have...
Apparently Peads is waay more popular than any of the other electives, changing courses out must be easier than going into it. As a note I've also heard that the Children's hospital in Westmead has the most new-graduate interviews because of first preferences, but don't quote me on that ;)

You can't just call a university good or bad as a whole. You have to look at it faculty by faculty, and see what the reputation is for the graduates within the field.
Mum did nursing at USYD ten years ago and it just looked like tonnes of theory. My parents attempted to persuade me to go to...
I'm feeling pretty confused right now, seeing as I did not write my post to be immature... If anything, you're the one coming off as immature by "laughing" at me when I gave you a serious reply. I replied to your post to sincerely help you.
I've seen it happen to forums before, some whingers...
Heh who cares if you flake out, the average person changes their career 5x in their lifetime. Even if you do want to do something else with your life, you could have course credit from Patho if you want to do a science or health degree :)
