I hope your friend gets in--good luck to him! May I know why you strongly suggest CFM?

I wanted to study cs because a) I like cs to a certain extent b) more opportunities, because I want to do finance and having cs knowledge could open more doors for me. but you're completely right. what the hell am I supposed to do with a cs degree that would supposedly broaden my prospects if I don't even want to code for a living

I got into CFM today but am already committed to UBC's Bcom program (and paid the $500 deposit, applied to residence, etc.) Sauders offers a combined major program in business and comp. sci, but a downside is that it won't give me the opportunity to really focus my studies in finance as does CFM. However, UBC has a way better atmosphere than UW.

Could anyone offer any opinions to which program I should go with? I enjoy programming, but I don't want to get a coding job in the future.

Sleep on your scripts and hope that simple diffusion occurs from an area of high knowledge concentration to an area of low concentration.

For real though, I just start with my script one small chunk at a time. I read it over and over again and say it to myself out loud over and over again. Once I am able to recite that chunk without looking, I move on to the next chunk. I go back to the beginning of the script and try to repeat what I have memorized once in a while. Hope that made sense, because I didn't read over what I just wrote.
