    hi, i’m that crazy biotch…

    February 26, 2002

    Hi, I’m that CRAZY biotch with the question about completing a major and a specialist. Here’s my next question: Let’s say they do let me sign up for both the Modern Languages specialist and the English major, but somewhere along the way I decide that I’m just too damn lazy. Can I just switch one of my subjects to a minor, once I have 4 courses in that subject? Like I’m enrolled in the Mod. Lang. program with Spanish and Portuguese until my third year, and then I decide that I only want a minor in Portuguese. Can I just switch it to a Spanish major and a Port. minor? Or am I locked in forever and ever? thanks

    I’m crazy, can I do a major and a specialist?

    February 22, 2002

    Hi, I’m a prospective U of T student. I was wondering whether it’s possible to do a specialist program AND a major program. I really want to do a Modern Languages specialist (Spanish and Portuguese, 14 courses) and an English major (7 courses). Is this allowed? Or would they consider this a triple major and not permit it? Also, how many courses may a first year student take, maximum?

    well, it’s out there somewhere.

    October 24, 2001

    FYI: There actually is an online book exchange that exists. I know this because a friend of mine that is an alumnus of UTM actually created and developed the site. However, I do not have the website address handy. And seeing as though school’s well on it’s way and the vast majority of students have probably already purchased their books (been ripped off), I’m not sure how much use it would be now, but I will forward it to ya when I find it!

    thanks guy. incoming address at some point soon….
    cheers,

    Is it possible to manage:
    – 6 full courses (17 hours of classes/week)
    – job (17 hours/week)
    – sport (appr. 5 hours/week)
    – many, many, many extracurricular activities (time involvement impossible to estimate)
    – a bit of volunteering (from time to time, nothing stable)
    and:

    Have an A average??? I really really need to know!

    July 20, 2000

    should I take a seminar for “the fun of it”? my course load is kinda hellish (bio, comp sci, phy, chem, math) but i wanna get my distribution req. over with in a class that i’ll probably enjoy. the main problem is that i would be taking more than 5 credits… kinda masochistic i guess.. hm
