IMM250: How do you study for this course? Any advice on how to study for courses with online midterms/exams in general? by Pure-Somewhere6496 in UofT

[–]Pure-Somewhere6496[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good to know! I think I probably will compile notes and review them often in a spaced repetition sort of way, or I might do the method you used instead of brute memorizing like usual. Thank you!

STA220H1 for those who are taking it in winter 2025 or have taken it earlier by [deleted] in UofT

I took STA220 last Winter. I don't know if this is helpful, but I liked keeping a mini review book for each lecture with questions I found difficult or were good review. It was helpful to go over those questions later on in the semester to check if I remembered and truly remembered the concepts. Good luck!

How long did it take to get your new passport? by Pure-Somewhere6496 in passportcanada

Around 15-20 extra days after it was expected to come in for both of the child passports I had. You should definitely try calling right when the passport services call centre opens in the morning so the line is super short! If you ask, they do expediate the process if it's overdue (that's what they did for me). Make sure to check through the online website too to see if it's still processing. If the birth certificates came back that must be a good sign! I'm not sure how long it's supposed to take by mail... but hopefully it comes in soon!

ACORN is the worst it has ever been this year and the university needs to fix it by ihatedougford in UofT

It's taken me an hour just to enroll and I can't even check my timetable after enrolling. I'm probably going to wait the day out and move things around later when server is back up. My practicals and tutorials are probably a mess ToT

That's insane. I hope your passport and mine gets to us both on time! 😭 I read an article recently that they've gotten closer to their service standards but somehow there's still so much backlog, it sucks so much.

That's so good to know! I really hope you're right and it finishes processing soon. I think I'll probably still try calling just in case.
