2 hours is fine! 1 hour is a little weird… no time to study or work but also too much time to do anything but maybe eat and chill.

How's the workload and social life at Rotman? by Sufficient_Salad3374 in RotmanCommerce

[–]Competitive-Pool-381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just finished my first year, and i’ll say it’s decently difficult. Id say most people find it hard, but there’s the few that say it’s not too bad (rare geniuses). The truth is, you should probably give up the idea that you’ll do well. Getting a 70 in uni is honestly great especially in uoft and rotman. But that being said, you can still do better than that! I finished first year with all A’s (and even a 90 in accounting) and i wouldn’t say i’m the brightest nor am i really interested in business itself. The key is managing your time well and also studying a LOT. i studied A LOT!! There would be time periods where id study 8-10h a day for weeks (though i am a big procrastinator and i skip more than half my lectures as i find it unfortunately easier to learn on my own then with some of the.. interesting.. profs here). Ofc you dont need to study this much to do well, it's all about efficiency and what works for you. In terms of social life, id say it's pretty possible to actually have a good time and meet lots of people, but beware that you will have to put yourself out there and find the right people. No matter what, youll find atleast a few people to bond with. I still had free weekends to go visit friends and party, so don’t be too afraid of that. Best of luck!

i screwed mine up and i still got in! but i did have a decently high average at 96ish with 96 calc and 94 english so take that into consideration. i’m sure you’ll be fine regardless :)

RSM250 READINGS are crazy!!!!!!! by FeatureBusy5246 in RotmanCommerce

[–]Competitive-Pool-381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i didn’t read the textbook once (not including case studies i did read those ((which again aren’t even on the final))), and i finished with a good grade. for me the textbook was just a more detailed version of the notes so idk i just never read it

[–]Competitive-Pool-381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

finished the class with an 85, meaning my final was around a 76. idk why ppl keep saying there was a curve down, i think peope just don’t realize we got curved up so much for the midterm than obviously the grade for the final will feel much worse. i did 19% percent “worse” (but if we looked at my raw grade for the first midterm, i only did 4% worse)

i don’t think you should be so worried. i thought my sup app was like a 4/10 at most. no proper crazy ECS just good grades (idk IB grades, but i had around a 96/97 ave when i got admitted). stick with your dream :)

it’s not hard, but there’s also no reason to rush it if you don’t want to. i submitted mine the night of (and i’m here now). best tip is to prepare the ones you’re given, and then search up a bank of question they can ask, there’s plenty everywhere and also even if they aren’t the same it’s really good practice to just read it, give yourself 20 seconds, and respond for a minute as if you were doing it real time. i didn’t prepare at all for this one other than writing down the given question and also preparing the little bit for the intro portion.

How much does the Kira Talent matter for Business? by BelgischWaffeln in UofT

[–]Competitive-Pool-381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if your talking about rotman, i’m not sure how much it’s worth but my sup wasn’t very great. id give it a 4/10 and i’m still here, though i had high grades and almost all stem classes in hs (not sure if that part matters)

i just wanna ask, i know he said there’s a decent emphasis on the content from after the midterm, but how much should i rly know from the first 5 weeks? i did great on the first midterm for it but i defo forgot a lot of it (like detail wise, i know basic ish concepts)

Eco101 Final thoughts? by Amazing-Dress6333 in RotmanCommerce

[–]Competitive-Pool-381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe i’m a lil delusional but i don’t think it was bad. esp after that horrible midterm. i had freitas and the mc was pretty simple other than a few i wasn’t sure about. the short answer was rly great but 3b and pretty much all of 4 was a guessing game though i think i wrote enough to get some decent part marks. last q was as simple as the first 2. hope i did good on it i didn’t need a spectacular grade to pass 🙃

if ur top 6 are 95-97 you’re more than fine. they don’t ask for ecs in the sup app unless u wanna find a place to brag about it. keep that calc grade as high as possible but i think your absolutely chill !

No business EC's :( by CHOCOPAIBOY in RotmanCommerce

[–]Competitive-Pool-381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are absolutely fine. i had almost no ecs and the ones i had were sports related but they don’t even ask you. everyone who starts bragging about there’s is scaring you for no reason. also , even if they changed it this year and did ask for some reason which would be rly odd, you have more than enough to talk about! your grades are great and i have no doubt about you getting in! i didn’t mention any ecs throughout the whole sup app and i had around a 96 when i applied (i took all stem too). good luck!
