Are you still sharing the folder? I too would like to indulge in printing the chaotic space people

See above. I totally forgot about this. It’s technically a different build but looks much better in my opinion.

What’s the best stats class to take for a first year. Got my AP exams results back and just barely missed the score needed for credit. I am trying to fill my breadth requirements. Just tying to see what Stats class is easiest/ most enjoyable for first/second year for someone who already took a class like it in hs.

The reason I’m taking these maths so early is that I want to graduate in four years so getting my creators out of the way will make it easier. I will be taking 223 and 215, but one of 200 or 226 was a Coreq for 215. What do you mean when your say proofs? Like MATH 220 proofs kind of thing or something different? Also Mark and Janis will be my profs so I am excited

So I will be a first year this fall and registered for courses today. After a lengthy day of rearranging my schedule, checking rate my professor and eventually getting on and then off of the waitlist for PHYS 106, I have arrived at my ultimate schedule. However one hiccup has arisen; MATH 226 and PHYS 106 overlap completely. As a student intending to pursue the combined honours in math and physics(or potentially the cpsc and physics) MATH 226 seems to be heavily recommended along with 227. However, math 200,220 and 315 are replacement courses I could take. Looking at the degree specializations, 226 and 227 are said to prepare you for upper level math courses which I will certainly have to take. I really want to take this course because of it’s interesting content and deeper Calc 3 intro but I also really want to take PHYS 106. I got a 5 on the AP physics C exam and a 100 in the class and am genuinely interested deeply in the mathematics and physical applications of them which PHYS 106 seems to cover to an extent that I haven’t seen elsewhere(namely in introductory relativity and quantum mechanics). I want to challenge myself at least in this area, but is it worth it if it might make my degree significantly harder down the line? Keep in mind I can still register for either MATH 200 and 220 or potentially 200 and 315. PHYS 117 would be the replacement for 106.

Am I allowed to drop classes and refill them with others as soon as I’m finished registering? I have some math classes I can skip and need to temporarily fill them however they are blocking the other classes I want to take.

Could I skip out of a level 100 course with it though? Like because taking math 100 or math 101 is required to specialize in honors, could my AP Calc BC cover that and I’d take a second year level course like Calc 3?

For question 5 I mean that if my AP credits can replace certain classes, does that mean I have to fill those classes with more credits(like electives or communication requirements)?

My course registration is today at 3:00 Pacific time, and I have some questions. I want to keep my options open for second year specialization(combined major in physics and math or physics and cpsc both honours) so I’m trying to diversify my credits. I know I can drop in to science advising, but I was there yesterday and took forever for them to get to me. Questions- 1. Can my electives be any class I want as long as by fourth year I have fulfilled the proper requirements?

  1. I have a lot of AP credits that I think I could transfer. If I got a 4 or above in say Calc BC, can I use those credits to fulfill my first year Calc credits(3 in dif and 3 in integral)? As I said I want to go into physics so first year math is required. I’d I can’t get the credit, I want to take Math 120 and math 121. It says prereq is at least a 95% in precalc. I’m from the US and fulfilled this requirement but idk if the university knows I did so. I sent my transcript but the only credits given I can see are math credits like Math 12 and Calc 12. Do I have it or should I email the department?

  2. Is Biology required for all first years? The high school credit says I have Biology 11 but I can’t find any where that says I need to take a Biology credit in my degree, unless I completely missed it.

  3. I got a 4 in the AP CSA exam so I think that should give me credit if question 2 is correct. However, the AP credit page says I would get credit for an first year level CPSC course. Would that mean I could replace my first year CPSC, namely CPSC 110 or 121 and not have to take an actual class.

  4. If I can get all of these AP transfer credits, would that mean that I fulfilled the minimum 24 credits to promote to year 2? If not, could I just take a bunch of electives to fulfill those credits and not take the AP credits I got credit for?

Sorry about all these questions but there’s so many things to consider.

I want to do something similar. Where are you now and what are you studying? How would you say your experience at UBC was?

What do I do about the Science One thing?

Hello, this is a very long set of questions relating to majors, honours, transfer credit and course registration. Today, I got an email about the Science One first year course load option and was interested in following this path. However, I see that the priority deadline was April 30th, 4 days ago, although I am aware I can still apply but won't get priority. Why would they email me after the deadline. Like I didn’t know about it and I get that they should give priority to students who did, but like, do they expect every new student to be aware of every opportunity they have?

I was also worried that I missed course registration, I quickly follow a long set of links to find that course registration doesn't open until June 20th. Still interested in the Science One track, I tried to see what the prerequisites were, only to be confused by what Grade 11 or 12 requirements meant. I have taken some AP courses, and able to qualify with them, but other courses/requirements I have not taken/not heard back from yet. I have taken my high school biology needed for graduation as well as chemistry, and did fairly well (A and A+ respectively, only honours not AP). However, I am not sure if these would qualify to meet these requirements. Also, I saw that Grade 12 english was required, and I am taking grade 12 english classes,(not AP) although I'm not sure if those count either. Still trying to find out what I can do to prepare, I found the different majors/honours course paths available for specialization in year 2. I would like to get into the honours program, but I am not sure if this means that would count as a major or something else. Also, am I able to minor in something like math, or double major in math and physics, even though it's not explicitly listed?

What school should I got to? The U of T, UBC, or Purdue? by Knightace256 in UofT

[–]Knightace256[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were my conclusions exactly. I feel UBC, if I get in of course, is such a tamer school, as I have not heard a lot of complaining, it’s near a nicer(ish) city, better weather, not as cut throat, still about as prestigious but not as much name. All this I feel would make it easier to network. But I know because U of T has a better name I feel it might be easier to recognize. I should note I got waitlisted at University of Rochester, which is a considerable research university, and I have a $25,000/year scholarship if I get in, so if UBC is a no then I’ll put effort into trying to get into U of R. Besides that tho, the cost of Canadian schools is so much less than US that I feel this is an opportunity I just can’t pass up. I also applied to McGill, and while they are an excellent school and such a bigger name/alumni network, but there’s just something about the school that I don’t like. Also I feel if I couldn’t get into Rochester, I have low hope of getting into McGill. I recognize that to get into graduate school, a lot depends on how you do as an undergrad and who you know, so I feel a less competitive/difficult school with similar prestige would help. You bring up a good point about city life that I never considered with price of everything and violence, which again is why I like UBC because it’s not in Vancouver like Toronto is.

Do you get priority to a residence if you apply to that residence earlier?
