CR/NCR

but do we really really need ethics?

Hello Aska

I have taken the course PHL271 this term – this is a required course for?the Math Major POST. I am not enrolled in that POST, however, as I am?waiting to see how I do in MAT137? at the end of this term. But at the same?time I am not doing particularly well in the phil course so I want to?request it to be evaluated as CR/NCR. If I do actually decide to do a math?post in the future, then can I have the CR/NCR rating for the course?somehow expunged [if I pass of course!] or do I have to do it all over?again [if that’s even possible]?

Thanks

Hey Inquiring Mind,

Unfortunately, UofT is pretty strict when it comes to the CR/NCR business. Look at their page — see all the bolds and the boxes? They’re there to make sure you know what you’re getting into. Yes, it is possible to undo the CR/NCR, but don’t bank on that because 99.9% of the time the Faculty will pretty much deny you and then laugh at your plight.

But if you do end up just getting a CR in the course or take the easy route and drop it, you can actually still pursue a math major! If you check the program requirements, there are actually quite a few PHL courses you can choose from to fulfill that ethics aspect of things so at least you’ve got that.

Cheers!
