Hey, you should have a LearmJCU account. Check under "organisation" then "timetables" and select DS1101 for 2018. Looks hectic but you'll have a great time!

Hope this helps. I enrolled straight through JCU as my QTAC didn't have an offer on it.
do u know anybody from big cities got an offer with low OP?
Hello, I'm a non-standard applying for dentistry at JCU for 2019 entry. I'm genuinely interested in working in a rural community and fell in love with Cairns when I went there for a short holiday.
I have a few questions for those who know how I can increase my chances of being selected?
Questions:
-Is a first semester GPA of 6.5 and an ATAR of 97.5 enough to pass me through the academic requirements?
-I'm currently doing work experience at a dental clinic in Sydney and training to work as a dental assistant there. Should I ask a dentist to be a reference?
-I'm also thinking of looking for 2-3 day work experience at a dental clinic in regional/rural Sydney, is this a good idea?
-Any other things that I definitely should include, especially to express my interest in dentistry and/or rural healthcare?
Thank you for your suggestions! They are immensely helpful.1)GPA - Great!!
2) Work experience is also great - but lots of people will have it. Have you done any science/dental related research for an academic? Are you continually volunteering in the community? Do you have other life achievements/awards etc?
3) Rural dentistry and healthcare are highly complex. You need to be very concise with how you structure your response and don't just regurgitate facts and statistics! What do you understand about rural dentistry/healthcare?

Hey guys, sorry to hijack this thread but I just thought I’d ask your opinions on my situation.
So my current OP prediction is 1-2 and I’ve live in rural areas (RA 2 currently but I lived in RA 3 and 4 areas when I was younger) my whole life. I’ve written, as far as myself and the people I’ve had check (teachers, doctors, current JCU dental students, etc.), a pretty good application.
What do you guys think are my chances of getting an offer to JCU dentsiry?
I know it’s still a long way off, but I’ve wanted to be a dentist my whole life (literally) and I’m just a bit nervous about the whole process of applying at JCU.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers
