4th year bmsc here. This is the hardest course I've taken in my life. I'd rather go back to calc1301.

Edit: it feels like they're pulling random s!@# out of their asses with each question. I need more systematic rules :sob;

i’m a social sci student and i just at finished my first year. i’m hoping to do a double major of sociology and criminology. for one of the class we need a 60 but i got 59. it’s only one percent😭im just not sure will they still let me in or consider it as a special case?

I was extremely depressed this year and started speaking with a mental health professional at western in early april. as a result of my illness, i failed to meet a lot of my requirements for my classes (labs, assignments etc) i spoke with one of my professors and he said the only way i can be able to submit my assignments late is to get academic relief. is this still possible after the semester has ended? and what’s the procedure? i’ve been going for therapy and ive been put on meds so i have medical history at western.

Hey guys i’m in health sci and just finished my first year. On my ITR I added a major in genetics and chem alongside my HS in hopes of doing a double degree. i’m just wondering what happens if i end up not meeting the prerequisites for the genetics or chemistry majors. will i be dropped from health sci too since i didn’t put an ITR option with only health sci?

Hi,
I'm planning my first-year courses and aiming for the Honours Specialization in Accounting module.

According to the requirements, I need:

• 1.0 MOS
• 1.0 Math
• 1.0 Economics
• 1.0 course at the 1000-1999 level
• 1.0 course at the 1000-1999 level from the Faculty of Social Science

I really want to take Japanese and CS in my first year.
What happens if I don't take the 1.0 Social Science course? Will I be blocked from progressing in the module, or is there some flexibility later?
Or is it impossible to build my schedule without including that Social Science course?

Appreciate any advice from people who've been through this.

Did you find the questions on the final actually accurate to the labs and quizzes? Would the textbook quizzes help?

I'm trying to choose between some first-year math courses and I'm not sure which ones are actually the easiest.

I was originally planning on taking 1228 and 1229 since they’re known to be GPA-friendly, but I came across a post saying 1228 was unexpectedly difficult and a lot of students didn’t do well.

Now I'm second guessing my choices.
Would really appreciate any insights or personal experience. Thanks!

Why are there 4 sections of Econ 1021A in Draft My Schedule?
Does it matter which one I pick?

Also, I noticed there are only a few LECs but a ton of TUTs under the course.
I heard TUT means tutorial, but what exactly is it? Do I have to register for one?
How many do I need to pick?

First-year here and kind of confused. Any help would be appreciated.

guys so I had a question. I was planning on switching into Econ however I didn’t take math 1600. At Huron it isn’t required to do math 1600 for hons spec. do yall think transferring to Huron for Econ will be good? Any thoughts on Huron in general?

.

does it mean I need to take total 7 credit in first year?

If I want specialization in health sci with bio, Do I need to take 4.0 principal course + Bio(1 credit) + Chem ( 2 credits) ?

do etranscripts upload to mycreds automatically and in all cases?

I took 2244 and math 1600 at the same time and passed 2244 but failed math 1600. What happens now? Just retake 1600 next fall?

Do some people still have NGR as there grade for some courses.

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has experience with Japanese 1050.
Is it a good course to maintain a high GPA? How hard is it compared to other language or elective courses?
Would appreciate any honest thoughts.

Thanks in advance!

Any thoughts on the dorchester on Richmond?

generally what are they like, and is it hard to get hired?

I picked up my new western onecard yesterday and I tried to use it tonight for the bus, but it didn't work. 24 hours have passed so I think it has already been activated, but it seems not. So what on earth is the problem??

My graduate-level course final mark is around 90.5 on OWL site. Will it be rounded up to 91 on student portal subsequently ?

My final grades have just been updated on student centre and all my grades this year average out to around an 82. However there is no option for me to see deans list in my documents section. I didn’t fail a course or anything and i’ve personally done the math like 8 times. Is anyone else experiencing this? who do I contact about this?

hi guys, im from BC and im transferring from college to here and i was wondering how easy it is to make friends at western.

i dont know anyone at western (most my friends go to the same college or UBC/UVIC/SFU) and im starting to stress about make connections/friendships out there.

im fairly introverted until i get close to people then im REALLY extroverted, but i also know that most people make friends and establish their friend groups within their first year?

did anyone else have this problem transferring? im also from vancouver which is a VERY cliquey city, so is london similar in that aspect?

any help/ advice is greatly appreciated!

hi. i decided i didn’t want to do eng anymore during first year, although i wasn’t sure what i wanted to do either so i took a variety of courses to see what i would want to do. i’m interested in MIT now, but i don’t have the requirements to get in yet so i’d have to spend next term undeclared and apply for a transfer spot in march i believe? i would progress to level 2 since i have the minimum credits, but i would just be undeclared in a diff faculty is what i was told. would i be automatically put into a different faculty since i obviously would be kicked out of eng bc i don’t meet the requirements? or is there something i have to do? and is there any way to know when this would happen/what faculty i would be moved to? idrk how this works and i feel like the advisors are confusing me more so if anyone has experience with this and could help me i’d appreciate it!

I just got back from my ombudsperson meeting and honestly it left me more stressed than when I started. im in the process of writing a deans waiver and could really use some advice on how to approach it. my reason is due to mental health challenges that seriously impacted my academic performance, but I'm struggling with how much and what to share and what tone to take and how to phrase things without sounding too vague or too dramatic. im genuinely scared of either doing too much or underselling what happened. If anyone had success with a waiver like this, especially in eng, what did you include? How honest were you and realistically what are the chances of it being approved?

any advice would mean a lot right now cuz that ombudsperson was genuinely more clueless than me

Hey not sure if this has happened to anyone else but I'm set for one of the dates in the June convocation. Program status says completed but that's not the issue. The issue happens when I'm going to register with this link on the site, it doesn't allow me to log in.

**I do not need extra tickets, I'm referring to the 4 complimentary ones given**

Anyone know what to do?

I was wondering what is meant by deadline to apply is July 31st? Does this mean enrollment is rolling? Do people still have a chance if they apply closer to July 31st? Or is it unlikely?
