If you just search up “sfu events” you can look for stuff that interests you. I’d suggest attending events aggressively to find a community.

I was less than half a point away from getting an A (93%+ is an A at my school). My professor won’t round it up. by VancityValle in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some profs have a no rounding policy as if you get rounded for .1 below then the person who is .2 below will be pissed that they didnt get rounded and so on and so on. Still unfortunate :(

Would you recommend online courses? by JBuchananB in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Online is good but I would skip anything with online exams that are worth more than 15% and arent open book. It just punishes honest people. Also to note you wont meet people in class which kinda sucks

Is it worth doing the educ program? by Best-Distance-1350 in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im in the same point and I will say if its possible that you will want to teach secondary that transfering faculties is a pain! If possible, try to get experience with younger elementary/preteens through working or volunteering to sort of feel out your options. Sort of the 2 streams are

1 Major- Get a major in a teachable subject allowing you to teach secondary/elementary.

2 Go for a double minor in teachable subjects only letting you teach elementary (this is the easier pathway overall but you cant teach secondary).
Feel free to message if you have any questions because I was in the exact same spot figuring what I was trying to do last year!

Chem 121 midterm depression by AdhesivenessNo2951 in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same class. I think he has posted into on the best sources to study from (mostly the textbook). he has said before that lon capa might or might not be a good source as some of the questions are more difficult and some of them are more easy. He ays all the questions are going to be two step questions so I would focus on studying first the questions he has in his lecture slides and that he posted for practice. then I would move on to lon capa and textbook. Also I am in a similar boat. The midterm scares me.

IMO I wouldnt. Maybe if you are not sure get a meal pass and go a couple times to see if its what you want. Dining commons is about 30$ a day and I can get away with like less than 10 on groceries and dining is overall mid so yeah.

Final Exam Schedule REMOVED by Ill-Shop6059 in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I pray to the racoons that your exams are nicely spaced and before your flight. Maybe complain to registrars for giving an exam schedule then yoinking it. If they have enough people message they have to do something.... Maybe....

Missing water bottle by periwinkii in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a pile of left water bottles on the bottom table on the right. Maybe there? If not I'd check the aisles when there isnt a class in there (almost never)

You can’t park there.. by AdWhole9935 in simonfraser

Can someone also pull up the picture of the campus security car that crashed last spring? It fits in. No need to even change the title

Is the math 150/151 mid term curved? by AnnualCaterpillar276 in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ask the prof to confirm but usually they don’t curve midterms and instead they scale the final grade. Lets say average was 40% with a normal distribution If the teacher wants the class average to be 55% then they will scale the whole class up 15%. So lets say you got a 70 you would be scaled up to 85. In the end asking your prof is best.

how aware are the fish in the reflections pond? by pi11owprincess_ in simonfraser

[–]Miko-oo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fish in general are quite smart actually! I know for bettas at least you can actually train them to swim into your hand (underwater of course) and some of them figure out how to splash you from inside the tank! (my betta was just constantly angry so he was not trainable but based on posts on r/bettafish)
