hey there,<\/p>\n
i have a documented dislike<\/a> of these kinds of questions, because i feel like there’s no sufficient way to answer them. who’s to say what would be easier\u00a0or harder for you? i don’t know you. i don’t know\u00a0YOUR STORY. and there’s no\u00a0acknowledged hierarchy<\/em> that i can refer to in order to, like, rank them.<\/p>\n i won’t play dumb. i know that the downtown campus has a\u00a0reputation<\/em> as a\u00a0more academically rigorous campus than the other two. i don’t know\u00a0if it’s the professors or the workload or just the fact that st. george is so much bigger – and therefore seems more intimidating – than the other campuses, but it does have that reputation.<\/p>\n that being said, i don’t have any actual numbers or facts to back up this bad (or good? depending on how you look at it) rap that st. george has as a ‘hard’ school.\u00a0i have no way of comparing grades across the three campuses, or anything like that. in addition, i’ve only ever been a student downtown.\u00a0my own experience was that i\u00a0never found it\u00a0that<\/em> difficult. challenging, for sure, but survivable. one of my POSts was poli sci at the downtown campus, and i didn’t ONCE cry over my notes in a library. yeah, that’s what you call a winner<\/a>.<\/p>\n that being said: no two people have the same university experience, and you shouldn’t base a decision like this on what some anonymous blog is telling you<\/a>.<\/p>\n if i were trying to decide between the\u00a0three campuses, i wouldn’t make the decision based on something as ephemeral and quantitatively groundless as “easiness.” instead, i would consider things like: what courses you need to take for each campus’ program, which campus is closer to where you’ll be living, which campus you\u00a0like<\/em>\u00a0best, and\u00a0whether any of the campuses offer special programs.<\/p>\n for example, UTM\u00a0offers combined specialists in economics and political science<\/a>\u00a0and history and political science<\/a>, and UTSC offers a co-op program in public policy<\/a> that may interest you. meanwhile, UTSG has a stellar faculty<\/a>.
