    substitution may be done in math but it sure isn’t done in english

    July 29, 2002

    how generous/liberal are the different departments when it comes to substituting courses?

    for instance, I want to do an English minor, for which 4 ENG courses are required. can I take a lit in translation course from a different department to replace an ENG course?

    thanks

    yes, “pre”requisite really does mean before!

    May 26, 2002

    Hi! I am wondering…….I don’t have any OAC sciences because the teachers at my school were retarded. So, I ended up applying for humanities and social sciences at U of T and was accepted. Now I want to do sciences. How can one switch from humanities to life sciences after one’s first year? (because i don’t expect to be able to change anything in my first year) I did take calculus and all of that delicious math in highschool-but no sciences.
    I don’t know what to do-I was planning to take BIO150 in my first year anyway (and consult the zoology undergrad department, as they said….although I emailed them weeks ago and got no reply-do i actually have to go see them!? i don’t get it) but how do i switch? and what would my second year end up being like? oh bother I am confused
    (BTW I GOT INTO INNIS RES WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!)

    April 23, 2002

    hi! i was just accepted and have already know that i want a pol sci specialist from uoft. so, caz i’m not really that interested in that many 1st year courses, i was wondering if i can take pol sci 200 1st year. there’s no prerequ. and a prof that i talked to during that open house in march break said that it’s o.k. and i can do it. of coures, i will ask my counciller or whatever, but i was just wondering if students taking 2nd year courses in 1st year was common. thanks!

    eco100 vs eco105, like the rock and hulk hogan going head to head…

    March 26, 2002

    I’m failing Calculus. Should I take ECO100y? I heard it’s heavy on the math. Would I be better off in ECO105?


    well, eco100 is tough on math. i know people who have failed. however, if you are in calculus right now, and enrolled in the course/program for a good reason, you might got on just fine. eco105 is not for people who are declaring economics as their program of study. most people take it for distribution requirements, or for international relations. this leads me to beieve that it is not math-heavy, because that seems to be the area most eco100 students have problems with. if you want to make your program of study economics, take eco100 and get extra help with the hard parts. if not, yeah, go for eco105, especially if you are sick of math. here’s the website, as well as the anti-calendar to choose your prof wisely.

    cheers,
    askastudent
