I am currently enrolled in preparatory chemistry. I have done pretty poorly on both practice tests/exams and am pretty certain I will fail the final exam. What happens/what do I need to do if/once I do fail? All answers I see to questions similar are very convoluted.

Hi everyone, hope you're doing well!

I've been looking at studying a Bachelor of Veterinary Science at JCU and was wondering if you think I would honestly stand a chance.

By the time I apply, I will:

- have met all the subject prerequisites

- have a Cert. III in animal care services

- a fixed ATAR of 70 (from JCU Prep)

-~600 hours of animal experience (500 in a specialised clinic)

- 3 letters of recommendation from senior vets.

I'm also hoping to start a Bachelor's degree in 2025 to complete a semester and use that GPA to put towards my application.

Do you think that this would be a strong enough application to get me in for the 2026 intake? Is there anything that I could do to improve my application? Current students and alumni, what did your successful application look like?

If I don't get in, I'm planning on doing a Bachelor of Vet Tech. at CSU, then completing a Doctorate of Vet Med elsewhere.

Thanks so much!!!~ :)

Hello!

We are currently recruiting young adults aged 18-30 to take part in our no-cost sleep coaching study. The purpose of this study is to test whether specialized sleep coaching sessions that focus on the science of habit formation can help people who have difficulty getting to sleep at night, difficulty waking up or getting out of bed in the morning, and feel sleepy during the day. We are hoping that this research study will result in a sleep treatment that will help many people who have these types of sleep problems. 

This study is really exciting because we’re offering free sleep coaching with therapists who have specialized training in sleep therapy at UC Berkeley. This is a unique opportunity to get access to no-cost sleep coaching for those struggling with their sleep. Eligible individuals will receive compensation for completing each part of the study (four 60-90 minute Zoom interviews, 7 days of wearing a sleep watch, and 7 days of completing online surveys). Additional information provided upon phone screening. The study is entirely remote.

If you are interested in learning more, please contact us by email at sleepteamucb@gmail.com, or via phone at (510) 473-6490‬. You can find more information about our lab and this study at the following link: https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~ahsleep/gbsmrc_mock/sleep-habits-study/

Hello, I want to continue doing an IT course after taking a year work break from the Bachelor of IT (Co-Op) course. I would prefer to continue at JCU because all CQU was online it I hated it. But the JCU course only has a 63 ATAR to get in comared to 80 something at CQU. My question is, how much will this matter to employers when I have the degree, and should I therefore consider going to CQU instead.

Roommate and I are looking for a third, posting on local college forms.

I'm looking for digital audio records of Bill Peter's Friday night metal show from Friday Aug 13, 2018. I'm hoping somebody in that department sees this post and can help. I sent an email to JCU about a week ago but haven't heard back anything.

Hello!! I’m studying abroad at John Cabot University this fall through the SAI program and looking for potential roommates!! Please reach out if you’re also on the hunt! Girls only please!

Hi everyone. I'm going to JCU Townsville next year and I would love any input about the different vibes/perks of the 5 different accommodation options. I'm on a budget so probably can't go Flyns, but I'm looking for a fun social vibe as I'm a party type of person :) Cheers

Hi all,

A former postdoctoral fellow at JCU is trying to get their business off the ground. If you know of anybody looking to consult about the sciences, direct them their way.

Besides my shameless plug, do you all have a better way to to help get their name out there?

Much appreciated.

I applied in the late cycle and just had my interview today . Does anyone know when I should expect an answer by ?

I just wanted to share Rate My Courses ratemycourses.io with new students who might not be familiar with it. This is a website similar to RMP but for classes. You can use this to look at reviews and get advice on courses you're interested in taking.

And don't forget to add reviews for the courses you took or currently taking!

Hi Everyone,

I have been working for some time now on this website ratemycourses.io and I am really excited to share it with you.

You can use this to look at reviews and get advice on courses you're interested in. You can also sort courses by difficulty, usefulness and the overall rating from reviews made by other students. I think if enough people start using it regularly. it's going to be essential when you're choosing your electives or just to get advice on courses you will be taking.

Please let me know if there is anything that I should change or what features I should add.

Lastly, filtering and sorting courses is only gonna be useful and accurate if there are a lot of reviews, so please go ahead and leave some reviews to courses you've taken or are currently taking.

Enjoy!!

Also, does anyone know if they will still have art history courses or is the entire department axed? Just heard from a friend what is going on and was wondering if anyone knew more. thanks

**On, sorry for the title typo

I’m considering moving to Cleveland to attend grad school at JCU, and I’m wondering if the city is safe for a 23f to live there alone? Also what is the city like and what should I be most concerned about?

Hey everyone, I will be attending this fall majoring in cell and molecular biology. Wondering if this sub is still active!

I saw that in order to obtain a computer science degree you have to pass a comprehensive exam. What is it like?

Just moved to University Heights, walking distance to JCU. I need to move a couch from my living room down to my basement and can't do it myself. I'm new to the area and don't know anyone here yet who can help. Anyone willing to come over and help me for $20? Should take under 10 minutes.

And, if you're willing to help with future craigslist purchases as I buy furniture, would be happy to keep the ball rolling for extra cash.

Thanks!

Rant on the Rails: The Border Wall

Please join us in an open forum to discuss the border wall and issues in immigration on Thursday, September 27th, at 6.30 pm at MT Glass/R's Kitchen: 13441 Cedar Road (next to Melt).

The event is part of our new interdisciplinary series: "Rant on the Rails: Thursdays at R's Kitchen": a new interdisciplinary occasional series covering important issues at the local, national and international level. The event on September 27th is sponsored by the Woefl Seminar in Public Policy, the Department of Political Science, and Students for Social Justice at John Carroll University

The idea behind the series is to select different topics of interest for the community where civic discourse and conversation emerges sparked by panel sessions, guest lectures, Q&A, or any number of other conversational modalities.

This month's event is co-sponsored by Students for Social Justice and is just one part of a broader week-long effort on campus. Have a look at the flyers around campus to get a sense for what this will be about. We hope that you will join us!

And if so, where are these events posted online?

I'm mostly looking for stuff to do with life sciences/environment.

Thought I'd ask :)
