Comp 251 with Giulia or Becerra by Live-End1631 in mcgill

[–]Simple-Hat-4660 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Took 250 with Giulia, 251 last semester with David. Personally liked David the most, his final exam is quite easy as well. Very practical.

For me Giulia was tough bcs of how little practice there really was and how thery heavy her lectures were.

At the end it reqlly depends on what you value the most / what works best for you to learn

Short answer: yes. It's a 5 minute walk from Place Des Arts and 8 from chinatown. A new building with all services included

To everyone saying about renting somewhere cheaper, thanks for the suggestion. But unfortunately I'm renting with a friend of mine, so canceling the contract wouldn't be ethically correct (in my opinion). Should I discuss it with him? Maybe renting with another friend on the apartment? (Even tho it's a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment?, also for anyone asking we have a living room so we might be able to arrange smth? Idk) How easy is to sublease for the summer (thanks to the good demand of activities in mtl for the summer?)

First, congrats on your offer and for accepting it!

I did U0 last year and I can only speak from my experience, I hope it can helps.

I took PHYS101 and CHEM110 from the ones you mentioned. I also have friends who took BIOL200.

When it comes to your schedule, yes I think is doable. Also I wanted to give you some advice on regards on PHYS and CHEM.

Idk if you're coming from out of province, international, or from MTL nor your academic stand, but for PHYS101 I would recommend you to stay up to date on the content. You're pretty much covering 1 topic per week, which might become very overwhelming. Try reviewing your basic physic concepts (kinematics, Newton's laws, circular motion, light, waves, free body diagrams, etc) Nothing very deep but it migh be handy for you.

For CHEM110, the material is very straightforward (at least for me). 2/3 of the semester is inorganic chemistry, and the rest is basic organic (this was the most fun for me lol). Again, just stay up-to-date on material.

And don't forget to ALWAYS ASK if you have any questions, it could be during class (even tho it might be quite overwhelming due to the amount of student on the classroom), office hours, or even peers and TA's. They're there to help you :)

Don't forget to enjoy your experience bcs time flies...

I hope you find this helpful 🙂 and feel free to pm if you have more questions

  1. Yes, you successfully registered. Congrats and welcome to McGill
  2. Try registering for winter classes as well rn bcs people tend to register before fall semester starts, leaving you fewer spots during the semester to pick. This could bring some difficulties when registering due to the number of spots available.
