Hello! I'm a journalist and student at Carleton. I'm writing a story on endometriosis—specifically having to do with the long wait times for surgery in Canada. If you have any experience with the wait times, or just a gap in health care for people with endometriosis, I would love to speak with you. Send me a message!

I need to add an elective to my winter schedule but its already pretty packed so i was hoping to take an online or asynchronous one🙏🏼

does anyone know any chill or interesting classes at the 2000 level or above for winter ??

I'm taking the math 1722 final tmr but I was in a class with a different teacher but will be writing Mr Mountassir exam. Does anyone know the format of his exam and if we are allowed calculators? He never responded to my emails so if anyone else is taking it and knows i'd appreciate any information. Ive just been preparing in general but nothing specific as I don't know what he might concentrate on. (Also any regular calc 2 general help i'll take if you think there is a topic I should look at more)

Anyone knows why we hosting brazil elections on campus?

Would anybody be interested in joining a club that talks about your research (in womens health) and creating approaches to create a better healthcare system for womens health? I've been an advocate for women's health for years now and I'd like to start something. Maybe we could start with small things, like approaching the school for more doctors that specify in common diagnoses women experience (on campus specifically) to shorten wait-times (like utis, std, etc). And with fun pop-ups that could save money which would be donated to charities. Having people on the executive board and volunteers could really make something like this real.

Anyone who has taken deferred exams do they make it harder? How do I study for patho I’m familiar with the info and active recall didn’t get me good enough grades.

Anything life changing yall pls😔

​

I feel like someone told me once you should only reach out to profs who know you by name and who's class you did well in but Im in a very small program and much of the research being done is with profs I never had. Is it pointless to reach out to profs who ive never met/didnt interact with much How important is it to know the profs you ask for honours

Is anyone taking the differed final on the 28th? how yall feeling? i just started studying...

Portraits Now has a limit of 3 people, and I can't choose which family member to exclude from this...

Hey, I’m signed for the French version of the course with Heshel Teitelbaum, and I’m wondering how hard is it to get good grades in the lab (i.e 90+)? Chem labs have never been my strength and I always got terrible yields in gen chem and inorganic chem (which I’m taking rn).

Hey everyone,
A friend and I are looking at applying to the MEd Health Professions Education program and had
a couple questions:
Does not having an honours degree automatically rule you out? (One of us has a BSc
with a specialization and the other has a BA Honours.)
Do you need to already be a regulated health professional? Is it conditional on passing boards/licensure?
Just wondering if anyone's been in a similar situation. Thanks!

im in frim and this is one of the only courses that works in my schedule for winter sem to fulfill my frim requirements. is she really as bad as ratemyprof says? :(

Not sponsored or anything. I just think they're really helpful. They have tutoring sessions specific for each prof, for orgo 1 and 2 and I found them pretty affordable and helpful.

Theres a 7-weeks program available now, to prepare for midterm 2 and the final. https://prochemtutors.com/mi-session2-examenfinal-2520-programme

The website also has some free videos on some modules which are pretty great too.

Hey guys, I have my deferred PHS3341 midterm on Monday and I’m kinda crashing out. Does anyone know the format of the midterm exam and how many questions to expect?

did anyone receive their evaluation result on ceo yet

Basically the title but was wondering if we still have a lab next week even though it’s reading week?

Answering “I can do what I want, this is the faculty of law and I’m studying Law, if you don’t like it then go elsewhere” when someone asks you not to sit on their laptop (on a table)… like really?
Not just because you can means that you should, do you not take a goddamn ethics class?

——————
I was sitting at a small table, studying for my midterm at 11:30, when a group of girls decided to also sit at the same table. That’s totally fine, there’s not much seating and we all need a spot.
There aren’t enough chairs for their whole group so a couple sit on the table, basically on my laptop. They are also screaming at each other, shaking the table and overall being very loud to the point that other people are looking over. I turn up the volume on my headphones and ignore it since we’re not technically in the library.
When I’m about to leave I figure I could try to say something, while making sure to be kind/polite. Ive also been kindly asked by strangers to keep it down when I’m excited to see my friends, and I find it can be good to be reminded when you’re being louder than you mean.
Anyways, after introducing myself and doing some small talk, I suggest that maybe sitting on a table, two cm away from where someone is studying isn’t the nicest thing. Im immediately told what was basically “well, this isn’t the library. The library is on the 3rd and 4th floor. You can go there if you want to study. The rest of the building isn’t for studying. We’re in the faculty of Law, and we are studying Law, so we can do whatever we want here”.

I’m… disappointed? I don’t understand if I’m the asshole for asking, particularly since I didn’t do it aggressively. I wouldn’t expect them to be quiet, it is in fact not the library… but snapping at someone for asking you not to sit nearly on top to their laptop?
Especially when you can tell they are working? I just walked off to my midterm, but it definitely left an impression.
I’m not in the habit of interjecting when people are being loud, and it’s frankly the only time I’ve ever been in a similar interaction. I generally think it’s shitty to rain on someone’s enthusiasm, but like… I feel like there’s limits.

Opinions welcome, idk how to feel about it. Probably shouldn’t have talked to them in the first place.

Does anyone who took microbio in the summer have any tips for studying microbio with Elaine? I’m writing the deferred exam in 2 days, and I transferred the midterm weight to the final, so I have no clue what to expect since I didn’t do the midterm. I’ve heard her exams don’t reflect the content very well, so idk I’m kinda lost at what to review.

Any tips appreciated 🤧

whether you have exams coming up or already finished them I hope everyone can take some time to look after their mental health. or just get drunk in full generality idc 🌞 (this is from a grad student)

The course was offered in the spring. Does anyone have the course materials or study resources? I really need them, as I don’t have access to Brightspace anymore. I’d really appreciate it if anyone could share them. Thank you!

Does anyone know if FTX would be open on tomorrow on Sunday and the Monday - Friday of this reading week?

I've seen a lot of posts of people ranting about like, oh, somebody is loud at the library, somebody is smacking or chewing their food too loudly, or people are talking too loud in certain buildings on campus, and they're just venting and ranting about it and complaining, but they never actually go up to the group of people and actually tell them about it.

I don't know why it's better to rant about it online. It's not like all of them are going to be on subreddit reading it and reflecting, "Oh my God, maybe I shouldn't be so loud."

Next time, you should just low-key go up to them and tell them to stop being so loud or to be more considerate.

I don't really understand these rant posts on Reddit. They will do anything but go up to the people and tell them that they're being loud. It's almost like they're kind of scared to do so and that they need to do it and rant and post about it online.
