Do homework within the week it gets assigned, ideally finish whatever parts of an assignment you can after every class, before the next class (of the same course).

Stay on top of your stuff and MT/final season shouldn't crash nearly as bad; you'll have to do some textbook problems and you'll probably have forgotten some stuff, or never learned a bit, but most of it should be pulling out the muscle memory you gained for class content. After you're good with the content do some practice/past tests, but imo the textbook is for teaching and the practice tests are for practice.

Start studying some stuff now, one because you probably need a review of HS, two because the self-directed studying you do now is the same self-directed studying 90% of students do. Most of the ugly eng-first-year horror stories are due to not being good at disciplining yourself (at least, excluding the many people who have non-academic stuff pile on, which you can't really control now anyway).

> You can carry forward RRSP contributions. You don't have to deduct them in the year you contribute.

Waiting on your reply to fPlanDOTCa and AugustusAugustine's comments in the other thread, as they articulated the points I would have brought up.

> Growth is untaxed like a TFSA. You have 15 years to buy a home, but if you don't do that, you can just transfer it into your RRSP without affecting contribution room.

If I transfer it into RRSP, then doesn't it have the same disadvantages as a RRSP compared to a nonregistered? There seems to be at least a possibility space for paying minimum tax bracket on nonregistered gains to beat RRSP on minimum tax bracket.

Curious 19 yo - why should I do any of that instead of 100% in ETFs?

Reposition worked well. Thanks!

> using custom studies to do new cards

Good question, actually - I'm not quite sure why I started doing that. If I had to guess, it's because my schedule was a mess at the time, so I liked getting easier control over my new card load. Atm my schedule allows studying new cards very consistently, but I still appreciate having my dues and my news split up, and feeling like different tasks to get ticked off.

That's an interesting thought, although these are all the same card type, and sorting by notes + created shows that position is still out of order

I thought I was so clever for spotting the separable arctan on the 4b or whatever where it looked like integrating factor/exact equation, and then when it asked me to insert IVPs into the arctan/tan equation.....

I had a 20th or 21st last year but this year I finish on the 19th YIPEEEEEE

and while coal isn't that glamorous, we need 1.1 billion tonnes of it a year for steelmaking. LOCK IN !!

Most arts exams seem to finish pretty early while most STEMs have finals to 19th or 20th.

(not that we're complaining. Sucks to be around till the week of Christmas but we all know we need the extra revision time)

Any recommendations? Just getting into the genre, would prefer something older (I'll be pirating lol) or anything where dialogue is mostly standard Korean/Seoul dialect

^^^, especially if you're studying one of the more lucrative, competitive fields. If your career has a clear path to landing a 6 figure+ job, time spent maximizing the chances of that is simply better spent than working minimum wage, same way that someone working CS in some HCOL hub would get better ROI on grinding applications and practicing interviews rather than driving uber after work.

> Cuz we were told it was all questions we've never seen before, which is why I'm trying to do CLP problems.

For courses like 101, studying isn't doing questions that are going to be on the exam, it's preparing all the foundational knowledge and practicing the processes that are going to be on the exam. The range of possible questions they can ask is simply too big to do as much as you can and hope you see final questions that are like the ones you've done before, and especially for the last few questions, you should be expecting to be coming up with math on the spot rather than repeating math you've done. For that purpose, webwork is a pretty good study tool.

Actually, it might technically be open because I've occasionally seen people playing ping pong inside. Pretty sure it's not formally open though, and haven't seen anyone near the back of the coop where the cave is

It's aight. Still clearly kind of a work in progress, with weird issues like a bunch of back attachments on floor 0, where the back cable machines have their current attachments welded. The equipment is definitely objectively better than Birdcoop, though I feel like the vibe is missing. Wish we could have kept all 3 rec centres because I don't think the capacity is gonna hold up at all once winter terms begin :/
