    salem revisited

    Is it true that 300 and 400-series courses are easier to do well in than 100 or 200-series ones? Because my registrar told me in 1st year that courses are more difficult in higher levels! Thanks!

    you’ll have to wait for Armageddon…

    Hey, i read your site and saw some info about getting rid of a course
    completely from the academic record
    i really slacked during my first year for this one particular course and
    failed it.. by like.. 3 marks..
    anyway if i were to get that deleted from my record, my gpa would go up an
    entire point.. 1.9 to 2.9.. i calculated it
    so.. i was wondering if there might be a chance that i could get this one
    course deleted? it would do wonders for my uni career if it was possible
    thnx in advance!

    instructors that edit your work and courses without grades- yup, that’s UofT for ya!

    I’m not the best at writing essays and I figure taking one of those writing courses would really help me out in the future. I’m thinking about taking INI103H1 Writing Essays (formerly INI200Y1). Is that course any good? Or
    will my marks just suffer? I have to keep up a 3.5 GPA so will this course work to level my GPA or will it just lower it tremendously? Also, is there a lot of work involved?

    Swiss-Cheesy…

    Helloooooo. I’m looking to add one or two first year courses to my schedule this year. I know you suggested taking first year seminar courses to another poster, but I don’t want to risk getting kicked out. I’m having a tough time deciding between a couple I’ve found. Here’s what I have narrowed it down to: phy101 (emergence in nature), psy100 (intro psych), and ini104 (writing reports). Have you heard anything about these courses? Am I going to kick myself in the face for taking any of these?

    I ain?t never took it. Yous are on yer own.

    Hi Aska, I am a going to be a second year student in life sciences hoping to get into Med School in the future. I am interested in taking ENG100H1. Do you have any information on this course, in terms of difficulty and workload? How is Prof. Flynn (the prof. that will be teaching most of the sections). Also, for a person interested in med school would it be alright for me to take a 100-level course in my second year?
