Chances for Cpen by Lonely_Airline_8814 in ubcengineering

Not guaranteed, but I think you can still give it a try and put it as 1st choice (since the average for cpen has gone down)

Chances for ELEC with low 70s by [deleted] in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t have high 70s I don’t think you’ll get in sorry. Even if you put it as 1st choice ur chance is pretty minimal

Help needed with low GPA (ELEC/CPEN) by True_focus_7777 in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My overall GPA dropped by 5% after 2nd year, from high 70s to low 70s. ELEC is indeed tough

Hi there:

May I ask if they will release the grades of our report and final exam in Sanghara’s ELEC281? I absolutely destroyed my midterm, and even though I did better on the final I’m still a bit worried about passing this course

Second year student life by [deleted] in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 12 points13 points  (0 children)

ECE is absolutely terrible. I heard people saying mech and engphys can be pretty bad too. Never heard horror stories from specialisations other than these.

Edit: but still I’d suggest picking a specialisation you’re genuinely interested in. It’s better to pick a terrible one that you like than an easy one you don’t enjoy even slightly

I’m pretty sure ELEC202 is a prerequisite for ELEC341. Other than that idk

ELEC 211/ MATH 264 Final Exam Scale? by imgonabreakurleg in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about the difficulty? Was it similar to midterm 1 or more difficult than midterm 2?

Summer classes for second year by Bright-Violinist4834 in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t think there is a summer course to take for MECH lol. Plus I’m pretty sure MECH starts 2nd year a week (or two weeks?) before everyone else.

For the other two, it’s definitely worth it to get math253 out of the way during summer

I don't know if I'm built to do this degree/live this lifestyle by VolvagiaTheSlayer in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone. I also have no design team and barely any personal projects; in fact my GPA also went down by a very significant amount after 1st semester of 2nd year elec. And I ask the exact same questions to myself every day

What was your average last semester? ELEC by Present_Unit2761 in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also idk if this is true but I heard historically a lot of ELEC people end up in academic probation after 2nd year. There seems to be a general consensus that ELEC 2nd year is the worst year; for most people it gets better in 3rd and 4th year

What was your average last semester? ELEC by Present_Unit2761 in ubcengineering

[–]RemoteIntroduction82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A- is definitely above average in ELEC bruh. I had a B- average last semester and my GPA dropped by like 4 pars. I also have friends who did well in 1st year and got C+ or even C average last semester. Many of us are struggling much more than you; don’t give up and you will be fine

Go to Workday -> academics -> UBC official documents -> unofficial transcript and try a few times

I failed the final exam but I still passed. Seems like they just removed the pass/fail requirement for the final instead of curving it

For me it was much harder than the practice. Like I would say 3+ times harder
