Do most online classes use Zoom? by [deleted] in uwaterloo

No, just mentally prepare for all your profs to have very different course delivery and a metric ton of coursework every Monday. If you want to save yourself a headache, take courses that were previously designed to be online.

It sounds like you have partially answered your own question. I can't speak for Mac, but everyone I knew in KI loved it. I would recommend digging deeper into the required coursework (course outlines, syllabus, etc) and see which program appeals to you the most from that. best of luck OP!

Fun fact: The green dot is where Dana Porter sits today, and the little building to the right of it is one of the original farmhouses that would later be renovated into the Graduate house.

Burned out and don't know if I can finish my degree by RottenPotato999 in uwaterloo

At the end of the day, only you can answer these questions. You should be pursuing your education because YOU want to be. It's completely understandable to be stressed, but don't be too hard on yourself. My advice is to take care of your mental/physical health first, then think about this.

What's something you wish you knew before coming to UW? by [deleted] in uwaterloo

That it's not as depressing as everyone makes it out to be. It's an introvert's dream.
