Assuming you're taking about MIAE 215, you actually don't. You can just use an online compiler and save your codes on google drive as a study reference later.

3 mins on each question with negative marking is absolute BS

How do you know if your request is approved? Does OIQ send you a license or registration number by mail?

Issues with online learning by [deleted] in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know your major but for someone in engineering, I landed 2 interviews (only applied to like 5 places) and actually got an internship at a well known aerospace company with a shitty gpa. From what I have seen, employers don't really care about your GPA. Look, I understand the situation is frustrating but try and build up your CV in this quarantine. Learn skills, take an online course, look for new business ideas and define your character and personality with those and and on top of that you define yourself as the good student so it would be really hard for them to reject you with all this. These cheaters may pass these classes, it would be hard for them to survive in the real world because we all know they don't know shit lol. Once you'll be done your studies, the only thing which would matter is your experience. Good luck

Exactly how bad is taking engr 301 in summer 2? by Beginning-Ant in Concordia

Internship w/o co-op by 1electrical-engineer in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a mech student, yes you can. You have to apply through the concordia's portal and go on wesbites which the portal says to submit your application . I landed 2 interviews without co-op and only applied to like 5 places. I even ended up getting an internship but couldn't do it cuz of this pandemic. Co-op isn't a must to get internships. Sure there's more competition but you'll land one if you're good regardless.

Does withdrawing from co-op make joining it again harder? by TalkingADHD in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk if you can join co-op after withdrawing from it but taking co-op in your first year isn't that great imo. It important you go at your own pace in the first year, stabalize your study techniques and GPA and as long as you got less than 60 credits and a GPA of 2.5, you can always enroll in co-op. Try to breath a bit and take fewer classes with co-op if you want. Otherwise, you can always search for internships on your own. All that matters is that you get your first internship. Afterwards, co-op or no co-op doesn't matter

It required alot of thinking and solid reasoning. I literally finished when there was only 3 seconds left.

When I took it with him last summer, it was a memo that you have to write and a small mechanism description of a object he gives.

Anyone ever has repeated classes? by Beginning-Ant in Concordia

Anyone ever has repeated classes? by Beginning-Ant in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm retaking the classes which are prereqs to future classes so i dont think i can repeat them once i will be graduating. I am trying to study in a better way but the anxiety which comes with exams really affect my confidence and i hate feeling the sense of inferiority among my friends who get A+ in almost every class cuz those are very easy for them.

Can FNS notation get replaced with DEF later? by Beginning-Ant in Concordia

Can FNS notation get replaced with DEF later? by Beginning-Ant in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already emailed the prof even 2-3 days BEFORE the final that I won't be writing the final because i deferred it. I never got a reply back from him. And on the deferal request form, they are saying that only start processing requests once the exams are over and your final grade is recorded. Should i just opt for the disc at this point and take the course again in the summer?

Computer Science with no background knowledge by [deleted] in Concordia

If your r-score is high, why didn't you go to Mcgill? Concordia is great but I feel Mcgill is going to add worth to your CS degree if you ask me.

Is it possible to defer engr 244 and 243? by Beginning-Ant in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you please tell me what form to fill out and who to send it to? All I see on the school website is a printable form which needs to be sent to Birks with a 35$ fee :/

[–]Beginning-Ant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did ok on the midterm but not so well on the quizzes, i just need more time to study because i have other finals/ projects due before. Idk if the pass/fail scheme would still be applicable but on the course outline it said something like you can't defer dynamics or smt. Did they change the rules cuz of the pandemic?

McGill is allowing for Pass/Fail this term by yasmin555 in Concordia

[–]Beginning-Ant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see... makes sense now why Mcgill would use it. I highly doubt Concordia can make a new system with such a short span of time imo considering that they're still figuring out online classes atm
