Hi Vinay,
I think on average, they receive about 60 cases under 3131 per month so I think you will still make it.
 
Anybody received AOR today?

Hi PR,

I am in RA too.

waiting for my Visa.
In canada you can do the 1 yr course in RA from seneca or Humber college.
after it would be very easy for you to get job there in RA in any pharma or medical device companies.

I will be doing same once I go there.

Hi Nikhil,

to be a registered pharmacist in Canada you need to clear PEBC (Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada) exam and fulfill federal and provincial requirements. Also, note you can give this exam only when you are in Canada. for more info. refer PEBC site.

if you are interested in RA profile that 1 year course would be fruitful as suggested by Seema.

Hi, sorry, not too sure what RA stands for but even the Canadian grad pharmacists are required to take the Pharmacist Qualifying Exams, so you need to pass the exam before you can register as a pharmacist. Source (http://www.pebc.ca/index.php/ci_id/3374/la_id/1.htm)
