i am taking an evaluation exam (PEBC)

and i am going to apply for a tourist visa...(evaluation exam is for pharmacists)

does anyone here who also took the exam and only applied for a tourist visa and was granted...can u share your experiences to me ?

is it wise to say that in my itinerary, (knowing that my main purpose is the exam) should i also mention about my plans on touring the around canada ? i am getting diff opinions about this, some people say be firm with my main purpose and nothing else, but i have read in some when your whole purpose is just to take an exam, VO usually think u will work after(specifically the cases of the nurses)...but that is not the case for me, bec even if i pass that exam i can't still be a registered pharmacist there.

and what amount of CAD should i take with me ? i am thinking of 2000 CAD and i have relatives who will support me there...

My supporting documents are very simple : ( I am just 20 y/o and i dont have that much to boast about) letter from pebc, letter of invitation from relatives in canada, bank statement, a personal letter for VO, previous job certificate (no job right now) and that's it...

thank you for your any opinions about this...
