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.
\nI 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
\n(BTW I GOT INTO INNIS RES WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!)<\/em><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

first,i highly doubt that your teachers were “retarded” or that people with learning disabilities appreciate being compared to your teachers either. <\/font><\/p>\n

second, if you want to know specifically about zoology, go to the source and call them (remember back that there was a phone before there was a modem?): ms. n. dominique<\/strike> is the undergrad officer and she can be reached at this number: 416-978-3477<\/font>
\nhowever, usually, when they say a PRE-requisite they generally mean that you have to had taken the required course PRE-enrollment in the class that you really want, ie BEFORE you enroll in the university. in other words, take it in summer school if you want in but don’t take my word for it: call the dept and see what they can do for you. besides, if you’re smart enough to have gotten into the innis rez, then, by default, you should be smart enough to figure this out.
\ncheers,
