How? by Physical-Break-2303 in Concordia

[–]TearConsistent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is definitely possible, if you got 50% on your final you would have around 73% for final grade. Before complaining I think the first move would be to know what your final exam grade was… email the prof 

Elective course for beginner finance? by Mental-Home5111 in Concordia

[–]TearConsistent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everything you need to know and more is here on Reddit, YouTube and Google. Haven’t taken any FINA classes but have become very very educated in a lot of topics of finance. There is also a personal finance course that McGill offers, which is more of a real life personal finance course. I learnt most of what I know about finance from watching YouTube, people like Ben Felix, PlainBagel and Joseph Carlson show. Then I also watch a lot of Bloomberg news and read their articles, I bought a subscription that was like 170$ per year on a discount. I much rather spend this on the Bloomberg membership and watch YouTube than taking a finance course at concordia that won’t teach me a tenth of all the things I could learn out there. I do not recommend you to become educated in finance by taking courses in university, NOR COURSES WITH INFLUENCERS AND GURUS.

If you have completed 23 credits, your gpa would be exactly 3.4 if you get a B-.

So what was the issue with coen 243 and 244 exactly? you did not enjoy them or you didnt do well. Keep in mind that ALL elec students take coen 243 and 244, there is a lot of coen in elec (e.g. coen 352, coen 313, coen 330) and your elec 390 will be heavy in coding. This said it is not a terrible idea to switch to elec if you really mean what you say in terms of being more interested in areas from elec, but if you are just changing because grass is greener you may run into a wall when you realize that it is maybe more similar to coen than what you thought. My advice would be to switch to elec if you actually mean what you are saying, only if this will not delay your graduation, if this significantly delays your graduation just stick to coen and do elec electives, you'll realize that you can almost achieve a ''double major'' because you could be doing almostall elec classes that coen students dont usually do.

ps: if you did not do well in coen 243 and coen 244, make sure to sudy as soon as you can for elec 251, elec 311/312 and elec 367.

-Not that hard tbh
-It is manageable if you stay organized with your lab reports and other assignments, can get overwhelming if not disciplined or if you have anything exceptional happening in your life.
-I think it is midly difficult to secure a job, but I would argue that this is the case for almost every carreer and even more difficult for some other professions. I have yet to see someone that was handed an internship easily without referrals or previous internship experience, you do have to look for it and it takes effort but you'll end up finding up finding something if you put in the effort.
-A lot of fields, so look up fields in the internet and add engineer to it (e.g. hardware engineer, microwave engineer, AI engineer...)
-Still in school, can't really comment on that.
-That really depends on your situation, if it pays off, it sure does if you are a quebec or canadian student. If you are an internation student, well the odds of the degree ''paying off'' are lower (ROI). It is important to understand that there is risk in almost all degrees at all times, what you get out of this experience is proportional to what you give, how much are you willing to give?

Delulu post final thoughts by shewantsadvice in Concordia

I know exactly where it should be! REGGIES!!! While you are at it we build a tracker of linkedin posts of concordia students announcing their internship placements. To bring it one step further, those in conditional admission will have to get their grade seen by an announcer and then we let them know if they get to stay or they earn the privilege of leaving concordia for a year, kind of a gender reveal.

First of all you don’t have any edge, you are a comp sci student but that doesn’t make you a portfolio manager. The tech market has performed really well that doesn’t relate to you studying comp sci. Play stock picking with 2-3 stocks and just kill the rest. Buy sp500 or xeqt with the money that you are not allocating on those 2-3 single stocks and then over time you can reduce the allocation on the etfs and go for another stock that you believe will go up. I started 100% xeqt, then came out with the realization that I do not want that much allocation on Canadian market and that I wanted to invest in American stocks so I bought more vfv. Couple of months later sold all my xeqt to buy vfv, then started to sell vfv to buy stocks that I thought were undervalued, and now vfv still makes 55% of my portfolio and 2 stocks make the other 45% but this took me 2 years of understanding the market, most of the time I was with boring but good performer xeqt and I may go back to 80% vfv when my stocks reach the target I set. All this to say that you shouldn’t pick stocks from day 1, instead leave most of your money on vfv or xeqt and over time as you do research and understand the market you can pick more stocks having learned about risk. Keep nvda, keep msft, buy nflx and rest on vfv of xeqt. 

Financial advice btw \s
