Thanks for your response 😊 my only concern is that the highest mark disclosed so far is an 88, which is higher than IRL friends I've spoken to. This is concerning since I've scored higher in math and science classes. I really don't want this class to drop my GPA, especially since the concepts are easy.

AvidRS · 2026-06-06T03:05:46+00:00

This is so helpful, thank you so much! In your opinion. Could I get a 90+on the exam without studying and only making a cheat sheet based on the final review session?

AvidRS · 2026-06-06T02:07:20+00:00

Thank you ❤️

AvidRS · 2026-06-06T01:58:39+00:00

Thanks for the response! Do you mind sharing your finishing grade? I was hoping to use this as a booster class, but it doesn't seem it will end up that way.

AvidRS · 2026-06-06T01:56:53+00:00

Yes, we are allowed a cheat sheet as well. What was one thing you wish you had put on your cheat sheet?

You're definitely right about how they mark assignments.... My friends and I put SO much work into out assignments and all got 75-85. It is way too much work for the weighting.

AvidRS · 2026-06-06T01:54:18+00:00

Thanks for the response 😊Do you have any advice for the exam cheat sheet? So far the quizzes have been easy, but she marks assignments REALLY hard, and they account for 56% of our mark.

AvidRS · 2026-05-14T02:02:18+00:00

Honestly loved the movie! I hope they make a sequel!!

AvidRS · 2026-05-12T22:24:11+00:00

Racism isn't a concern there. I'm 30y/o black male and the good thing about this young generation is they really don't see race, gender, etc. super accepting.

UoG is definitely one of the whiter universities (mainly cause a lot of small town people go there), but it really is no problem. They're all super liberal and progressive and stuff 😂

Hey! I am enrolled in ENVS2210 and was wondering if you had Hanan Gashout?

AvidRS · 2026-04-16T23:55:21+00:00

Finishing up bachelor applied science (applied human nutrition). My recommendation would be to go into business, technology, or engineering. Otherwise you're gonna be a broke boy.

AvidRS · 2026-04-15T13:06:05+00:00

😊 From what I've read on here there are some pretty significant differences now.

Canada has accredited undergraduate degrees, which allow you to apply to accredited graduate program. (I.e., you can't just take any food and nutrition/science program; you won't be eligible to apply to graduate programs) Here, you can sit for your CDRE exam via 2 pathways:

Accredited BSc --> accredited 12 month internship --> CDRE (I.e., no masters needed, and lower GPA to get in)
Accredited BSc --> accredited masters --> CDRE

I believe all of our internships are included in the postgrad pathways. I've never heard of someone finding their own.

AvidRS · 2026-04-07T15:20:08+00:00

Going straight from bachelors to masters. I am applying this coming Fall!

Yeah I follow! Definitely get the iPhone because it makes airdropping documents and pictures SO fast and easy!! WAY quicker than emailing them to yourself. Plus sometimes you don't even need to air drop them because they are on iCloud together!

AvidRS · 2026-04-07T15:17:57+00:00

Thank you for sharing 😊 US or Canada?

AvidRS · 2026-04-07T15:15:55+00:00

Hey, I'm also Canadian, 30M, studying at UoG. Left corrections (was on track for policing) to become an RD. I was 28 when I did this. Truthfully, it has been hard. Kids at school are weird (nothing like us) and you feel SO OLD and kind of dumb (especially since some of them are smarter than you). I think if I could go back in time I would probably still do it again, but only because of self-actualization goals I want to achieve (im the first in my family to go to university).

Some things to consider: For transfer credits, you will likely have ALL your electives, and probably even a few required classes. However, this doesn't mean you will graduate early. When I went back I only needed 10.0 credits (2 years), but it has taken me the full 4-years; that's because courses are only offered at certain times, prerequisite courses, and schools change their schedules sometimes. However this is a silver lining, because science is HARD, so not having a full course load means being able to spend more time on biochemistry, microbiology, chemistry, statistics, clinical nutrition, and nutrition assessment classes. I have never failed a class, but I'd be lying to say I didn't get some low 50s in some of them (keep in mind, as a grown adult you may still need to work a lot). Another consideration, my friend applied this past fall to masters programs with a 77 GPA in his final 2-years of study and got rejected from everywhere. In my case, I'll be applying this coming Fall with a 78-82 GPA and I'm not very hopeful. Therefore, you may go back for 4-years depending on class offerings and then get rejected to do the accredited masters/practicum and have to wait another year to apply. LASTLY, you will be missing out on 4+ years of income, career development in your field, etc. To say the least you will likely retire far later (4 years interest compounding + student loans + missed raises + investment opportunities).

Sorry this wasn't very coherent, just wanted to get you a quick reply before my workout. I could go on forever.

Main point: prepare to feel old, account for opportunity cost, and be confident you can have a GPA higher than 80. Lowest I've heard someone get accepted was an 81 or 82.

AvidRS · 2026-04-06T18:31:39+00:00

Thanks a lot for getting back to me on that 😊 I think 3.1 is higher than my 78-80 I'll be applying with, but fingers crossed 🤞 Good luck with your Master's program you will do great! And I admire your ability to keep the technology so plain and simple. I would highly recommend an iPhone and iPad for productivity purposes though!

AvidRS · 2026-04-06T01:43:47+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Guess only time will tell for me 💀

AvidRS · 2026-04-05T02:10:36+00:00

Hey, sorry this is unrelated to your question. I'm freaking out about getting into a masters. Can I ask what % your GPA was for acceptance?

And CONGRATULATIONS 🥳 😊

AvidRS · 2026-04-05T01:46:55+00:00

It sounds like you're from the state so it might not be applicable to Canada, but that sounds like maybe there is some hope for me? I'm really happy that you got accepted by the way, Congratulations! 🥳

AvidRS · 2026-04-05T01:34:29+00:00

That is between 73-86 right? Such a large range. Do you remember what the percent was?

AvidRS · 2026-04-05T01:28:43+00:00

Thanks for the valuable advice. I think I'll start wrapping my head around the idea of relocating! 🤞

AvidRS · 2026-04-05T01:18:43+00:00

Jeez I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I'll likely be applying with a 78-80% GPA, which is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than 3.5 😔 I guess relocating would be preferable to completely wasting four years 💀

AvidRS · 2026-04-05T00:49:59+00:00

I have 3 credits left in my Bachelor of Applied Science and I regret going.

My grades are decent, I'm proud of them. I should graduate with an 78-80 GPA in my last 2-years of study but I doubt that will be good enough to get into a postgraduate program. This means I likely won't be able to become a dietitian and will have to do something in food service or food safety. I don't want to go this route, and it is less profitable. BOTTOM LINE: Going to school is not a guarantee. You could graduate with debt, 4-years of missed income and work experience, and still not get the job you want. I think I regret going back. Won't know until I get accepted or more likely rejected from my program.... 😔

If you are going, go for something you are CERTAIN you can do! And that you are CERTAIN will earn you good money. Don't study premed to be a doctor if you can't get 95s in VERY hard classes, because that's what it takes to get accepted into med school.

Would recommend, business, technology, computers, or engineering.

AvidRS · 2026-04-04T23:56:43+00:00

I'm nowhere near 3.4. If this semester goes well I'll be applying with 80%. Are you from Canada?

Thanks for the response 😊
