All About Red Pollard in Seabiscuit?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The real John 'Red' Pollard was born in Canada but spent most of his life in America. At 5'7" Pollard was much bigger than most jockies and resorted to desperate measures to keep his weight down. Pollard tented to have rotten luck, many accidents, some life threatening but still he would come back to ride again. Pollard finally hit his stride when introduced to a nasty-tempered horse named Seabiscuit. And the rest is history.

Pollard had a difficult life at times. He struggled with alcohol addiction, injuries, and lack of money. He eventually married and had children, he died in 1981.

What is inoganic manure?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A fertilizer whose compounds are not animal- or plant-based and that nevertheless intends to enrich the soil is what inorganic manure is.

Specifically, manure generally designates animal wastes. But among cultivators, farmers, gardeners and growers, it sometimes is used synonymously with fertilizer. An organic manure therefore originates in animal wastes. An inorganic manure requires the presence of either lab-created substances - such as lab-made urea - or naturally occurring non-organic compounds - such as gypsum, rock phosphate, or sulfur.

Where should an 11 year old look to find volunteer work at a local horse rescue?

User Avatar

Asked by Ashleytisdale321

Horse rescues are always glad for volunteers, but the fragile state of mind of some horses means that not everyone is suited to be around them. Volunteer to groom the horses who are ready to be adopted. When you're able to handle other horses, I'm sure they'll let you know.

Do you need to be in a good school to get into a good college?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not necessarily. Often students who do not have very good GPA's find good opportunities at community and junior colleges. Each school has GPA cutoffs, but often the community/junior colleges will give you the chance to prove yourself that a 4 year school wouldn't. Transfer to a 4 year school is often an option after the community college.

Actually, it depends on your standards and how good of a college you want to go to. Of course, higher ranked colleges will have higher standards. If you plan on going to a great university, among the top in the nation, you should aim to get more than a 4.2 GPA (weighted) and an SAT Score of at least 2100 (New one). These are barely minimums these days, with such high competition. A guy I know that went to Harvard University and took 8 AP classes, received A's in every class he took, so a 4.0 GPA UNWEIGHTED. I do not know his weighted, though, but i would guess it to be higher than a 4.5. His SAT Score was a perfect, 1600 (old one) and he volunteered as a reporter for the local newspaper company (this tells you he writes really well). So, actually, you will need a high GPA to get into a top ranked Ivy League school, but if you plan on going to a decent school, aim for around a 3.5 GPA. You can never be sure if you are going to be accepted or not, so don't think "I have to get a 3.5 GPA" Instead, think "I have to get the highest possible GPA i can get" (Obviously, aim for a 4.0 GPA unweighted). For me? I'm aiming for a 4.2 weighted GPA and a 2000 on the New SATs.

Many state university's just require a 2.0 or being in the top half of your class. These are most certainly not Ivy League schools but decent Universities nonetheless.

Colleges don't just look at GPA. They look at extracurricular activities, extra classes you may have taken over the summer, Papers you have written and a lot more. GPA is important but its that and other things you have tht get you into a good college.

That depends on your standards. If a "good" college means Yale and a "bad" GPA means a 2.5, then you're not going to get in, sorry. There are some schools that are "open" schools that take any applicant with an SAT/ACT score above (insert school's requirement here). I can only think of one right now, which is Colorado Christian University. Also, schools don't look only at your GPA. Grades are the most important component to your college application, but there are many not-so-selective colleges that could be considered "good"

What is the best Veterinary School in the US?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

While vet schools around the world are ranked annually, the rankings change from year to year and are partially based on non-academic metrics like total grant funding and number of publications by faculty. Any college or university that has an accredited veterinary medicine program will provide a good education, so I would suggest focusing more on which is the best fit for your finances and your career aspirations. For instance, while every vet school will cover the standard domestic animals, only a few vet schools have a strong exotic animal (avian, reptile, amphibian, etc.) program while others have a good marine animal track or excellent opportunities for federal/regulatory medicine. Also, particularly in the United States, the cost of vet school can vary widely depending upon your residency status within the school's state.

Where can you find a summer job if you are 14 years old in Cleveland Ohio?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

While I admire your ambition, in MOST cases (and in most places) businesses cannot hire people as young as 12. Your best chances will be to look around for neighbors that may be looking for some part time help in matters such as weeding flowerbeds, babysitting, and the like. Looking for those jobs will not be easy, but it WILL be good practice for when you are older, and looking for a regular job. Good luck to you!
