hey ive got some questions about transfering from sait. i am currently finishing up my red seal in mechanics at sait this fall and i hate it and am looking to transfer into a stem degree at u of c. issue is my highschool grades are n9t competitive at all due to burnout during covid. ill be 22 and am unsure how the adult student thing starts. ive been looking into getting a physics degree or a plant biology degree but am unsure how to transfer from an automotive service technition red seal into that. do i need to upgrade classes or just make sure my gpa is solid to transfer?

Is it worth going? cause I got shit ton of studying to do.

Is the $6 sale just for 60th anniversary merch or includes regular bookstore merch?

I'm applying to grad school this summer, and I'm pretrified of how admissions are going to see my GPA and overall transcript. I flunked my last exam in an Art History course, which was worth 33% of my grade, and now my final grade is going to be a C. My anthropology exams have also been a bismal, as my last two exams were a C- and a D+, and I have one more to make up my grade, but I'm considering a flexible grade option in case it goes south. I don't know what to do. My other courses have been Bs and As for the majority, but there are also other Cs and Ds within my first two years in school. I'm currently a third year design student wanting to go into architecture and city planning, but I'm scared my GPA won't be good enough to make it into the schools I'm applying for, since I assume most schools will want a 3.00 minimum (which I believe I will meet), but will accept anyone with a GPA closer to a 4.00 than me, who will likely just barely make it over. I'm freaking out. All my design courses (which are all the required ones I've had to take to get my degree) are all high grades, but my electives are harder because they rely more on tests and exams, and I'm shit with studying material and exam performance, no matter how much I try and seek help. Can someone tell me what to do, and if or not I may have a future in my desired field?

I need some advice, I got a 54% on term test 1 which was 15% of my grade and 34.67% on my term test 2 which was 25% of my grade. The project is worth 25% and the final is worth 35%. I need a C- as this class is a prerequisite for 4th year. My group is doing the bonus for the group project which can give me an additional 15% on the on the final project. What should I do. Please give me some advice.

If I dropped a course, but now I wanna undrop it before the drop deadline thing, am I able to, or once I’ve dropped that’s done?

Is a minor with enel worth out or na? Does a minor make someone stick out when applying for jobs?

I just wanted to know from people who are currently doing the acturial sciences degree or who have completed it, on how their experience was with the course and if it was ultimately worth it. Also how was the first year for it?

I’m currently an Open Studies student and I received conditional admission to Engineering based on my fall grades. My offer says I need to maintain at least a 2.0 GPA in my second semester to keep the admission.

I recently withdrew from one of my courses, and now I’m worried that this might affect my offer. Does withdrawing from a course usually make a difference in this situation, as long as I still meet the GPA requirement?

I'm looking to get rid of a few of my old actuarial science textbooks, I don't need the money and hoping to help someone out.

Actuarial Mathematics for Life Contingent Risks Second Edition: David CM Dickson, Mary R Hardy, and Howard R Waters

Loss Models From Data to Decisions Fourth Edition: Stuart A Klugman, Harry H Panjer, and Gordon E Willmot (textbook and student manual)

I’m going into IR in September and I was thinking of applying to the nursing year 2 program. I need to take human anatomy and physiology which I was thinking of taking it at athabasca. I talked to an advisor and she said that I would need permission from my faculty and then a letter of permission. But she said aslong as I finish the course before I start classes I would be good. But I’m thinking of starting the course either June, July, or maybe September. since I’m not attending uofc currently, but I will be while I’m still taking the course would I still need permission from my faculty and then a lop?
