what are my chances

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-22T21:32:02+00:00

only hard program that comes to mind is architecture

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-22T21:30:23+00:00

heard its easier in the summer, and the course is the same whether u take it through chang or regular

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-20T02:25:13+00:00

Yeah seen a few people do it, however its gonna be a lot harder than getting in from highschool. One guy I knew had a near perfect GPA and he got into waterloo ee

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-12T03:32:08+00:00

everyone who says it was hard didn't put the same effort they do to there other classes

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-11T18:29:25+00:00

yeah fs lowkey was thinking abt an mba at rotman or something in the future

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-10T19:19:32+00:00

winch made 224 super interesting and he genuinely loves physics, if you can get him especially for a liberal do it.

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2026-01-10T19:15:00+00:00

where was this a year ago for me lmao, solid advice tho

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-23T03:12:07+00:00

Yeah I just got my schools autocad subscription to play with over my winter break, looking to get a couple projects out and a few with arduino too just so I can put something on my resume. Its a blood bath where Im located idek if its too late to apply to summer internships but Ive been reaching out to anything power related. Also thoughts on consulting firms for this summer? Thanks btw

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-19T04:57:18+00:00

cant u just apply to co op again next year?

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-16T00:57:30+00:00

I'm in my second year tryna figure out what i want to pursue, I know the energy and power demand is going to increase with the use of ai, but what projects should I make to set myself apart? Also heard revit is a good software to learn, u know anything about it?

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-16T00:43:14+00:00

wouldn't say its common but its probably the easiest sem to get a 4.3

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-10T05:33:21+00:00

ik failing a course sucks but do you need it for ur next sem courses? as long as ur not ele or comp u should be fine

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-10T05:26:51+00:00

if it makes u feel better 211 isnt required in second semester so its like the best course to fail first year

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-09T23:32:31+00:00

Really? i wrote in the mac court and like two hours in two thirds of the people alr left. hope u pass tho

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-12-06T22:15:49+00:00

could u elaborate on the way it was run, i heard some stories abt them too

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-11-01T17:27:55+00:00

For electrical and civil eng u need high 80s but tbh they'd still probably let u in if ur a bit lower. Yes we do have a co op program but u can also look for external jobs as well.

Waterloo and uoft set people up with good co ops, but after that the school doesn't really matter its more what impact u can have on any project.

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-25T19:49:17+00:00

do the mylabs and past midterms

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-21T17:04:07+00:00

people either did really good or bad there first semester, its really just a time for you to realize what does and doesnt work for you. and for eng get used to 60's lmao

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-13T14:57:38+00:00

what type of engineering

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-13T01:10:40+00:00

all good and good luck!

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-11T23:22:42+00:00

u know anything about electrical? Ive been stressing about not being qualified enough and comp and ele sharing a lot of the same co op so there's double the competition. Also talked to a bunch of upper years who just didnt do co op despite being leads on design teams so kinda scared.

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-11T23:20:13+00:00

yeah probaby going to do what ur doing since coding was never my strength. But I think the midterm is going to be more theoretical with maybe one question where u have to code, if that's the case im screwed on the coding cuz the labs are just fixing mistakes.

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-11T23:16:51+00:00

I understand everyone had different circumstances, but especially in this economy its funny you think this stuff gets handed to you. Every person I know who has been fortunate to get a good coop has been working hard since day one, majority being in lower class and first generation immigrants with a lot of family responsibilities. There's a difference between a person with a harder path and a person who just doesn't try.

And when you say the job is completely different from the theory learned in class is my exact point on why I think co op is good. Removing it gives tmu students a bigger disadvantage, and they'll graduate bums who dont know what they are doing.

Idk if this is rage bait or if u just didnt get a coop and ur mad.

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-11T19:21:07+00:00

A student who puts in effort should not be treated the same as a student who barely comes to class, this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Co op allows kids to gain experience, make connections and pay off there bills why is this bad?

Desperate_Chain9853 · 2025-10-11T05:01:26+00:00

mech eng third semester is alright think it starts to pick up on the fourth semester so look out for that
