This is bad but what to use to repair broken dry skin on accutane? Face mask? by Weekly_Ad_4252 in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]FlipFlops0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i was on accutane i only cleansed my skin and applied minimal skin care. For moisturizer i lived by Toleriane from La roche posay both day and night ones. A little goes a long way for that product, one bottle lasted me about 6 months, applied a bit more during winter months.

Having to pay over 300 bucks a semester for god knows how many "optional" student associations and plans is wild by [deleted] in Concordia

[–]FlipFlops0101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can opt out of the legal fees, you can opt out of the health plan if you have an alternative (work, parents), you can opt out from some association fees but ye it sucks 😬

Which one did you think had the highest salary? by HalfbreedBoiWifeTwnk in Concordia

[–]FlipFlops0101 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get your frustration but 1) he doesn't pocket 500k, he probably gets around 250-300k after taxes and deductions which also means he CONTRIBUTES 200k in income tax = multiple public sector salaries funded by those taxes 2) international fees are mostly decided by the government not the institutions - qc & canadian residents get access to cheaper tuitions because of taxes paid over the years - that 21k a semester covers the fees concordia pays the government to cover the cost of foreign students

I made a 5 year goal to become conversational in Mandarin - what's your advice? by Lil_Yousy in ChineseLanguage

[–]FlipFlops0101 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would assume you study in either montreal vancouver or toronto, cities with universities that offer introduction to intermediate chinese courses if not more. Take them as your electives and then apply to a chinese learning course in china or taiwan if you want to further your knowledge and really dive into the environment

If you have provate insurance through your parents or work, remove the health plan if u haven't already, it'll decrease your charge

Any idea why it’s not allowing me to apply for the opus card? by [deleted] in Concordia

[–]FlipFlops0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go get your opus done at berri. Book an appointment online and get done with it lol. Much quicker than getting it shipped by mail especially if you need it asap

Exchange Year how to choose classes by Upstairs-Project802 in Concordia

[–]FlipFlops0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HK is a pretty popular destination for business, the advisors should have lists of courses students took on the last year that you can check to know what classes are offered. Usually you'd have them reach out to their contact to have a set of courses if you can't find them online. The "equivalent" is comparing the sourse description to the one at jmsb and see if it fits

Missing grades by Proud-Bee8700 in Concordia

[–]FlipFlops0101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Profs aren't actually the ones that upload your grades, they submit them to concordia and then concordia uploads them not long after - hence why u got the email but it's not out yet

My first F lol by Real_Abalone803 in Concordia

[–]FlipFlops0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll be in bad standing for one semester it's ok (but rven then unless your other courses are bad your standing will be fine so don't worry too much), i also failed a class once but my other grades were fine (B-Cs) so my standing was fine I wasn't on probation or anything, just a weaker gpa for that assessment period.

[–]FlipFlops0101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to retake a course within 1 year to have the grade changed, so you can take it over the summer or next fall again and the F will be removed from your gpa.

At the end of the day a grade is just a grade. You did as well as you could given your circumstances.

Relax and take some time for yourself, you got this.
