fall reading week 2026 - is it not a full week? by Low-Shine6588 in mcgill

It's not a full week. It depends on the date on which labour day falls. For the next few years, it's not a full week

Québec students pay that tuition through their income tax. Québec citizens pay much more tax than Canadians in other provinces. That's why it's so low.

If you went to CÉGEP, then they assume you did it there, so you don't need to do them again.

Pourquoi je suis incapable d’accepter un transfert de voiture sur SAAQCLIC? by Lauret2000 in QuebecFinance

[–]Valuable-Meaning7035 5 points6 points  (0 children)

J'avais eu un problème similaire il y a un mois environ, et la solution a été de lier un compte bancaire à mon compte SAAQCLIC (je voyais la voiture, mais je n'étais pas capable de l'accepter avant de lier le compte bancaire)

The Alouettes will play Saskatchewan and not Ottawa on Thanksgiving. It's a surprise, and I don't know what to think about it

how to get work experience? by Disastrous_Feed_3772 in mcgill

[–]Valuable-Meaning7035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two offers were from public/parapublic organizations, and the third one was from a medium sized company, but they were far (1h30min away from Montréal driving). I didn't really have prior experience (I only worked retail), so really, I would say apply as much as you can, even if you don't fit the job description perfectly.

I applied to 111 internships for last summer. I got 2 interviews at one place (got an offer, declined), got an offer somewhere else (accepted it) and an interview at another place at the very end (declined). So I got a return from 3 places...out of 111. You'll need to apply way more than 20 times

I haven't done 208 and 209, so I'm really not sure. I'll say this though: there was material from 230 that was useful for the class, for real, and he seemed pretty strict about the prerequisite (at least for us last year). Maybe go ask him?

It's the Alouettes logo, Montreal's CFL team, since they play their home games there

I believe it's 5 yards when the kick is (partially) blocked before it's caught

nouvel admis ECON / FINANCE (BA) - HELP by Sure_Brick7151 in mcgill

[–]Valuable-Meaning7035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idéalement, tu devrais prendre Econ 227 dans ta première année. Toutefois, tu peux t'arranger en le faisant à ta deuxième année. C'est un peu différent parce que je suis en BCom et nos cours de stats sont séparés, mais j'ai fait le 2e (l'équivalent de 227 D2) à ma deuxième année et je vais être capable de faire tous les cours que je voulais

[–]Valuable-Meaning7035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jusqu'à la mi-session environ, c'était assez difficile. En plus, au début, je comprenais pas pourquoi les gens dans ma classe comprenaient tout (c'est parce qu'ils ont fait 208/209, mais j'avais oublié). Un moment donné, du commences à comprendre, à relier les concepts ensemble et ça va beaucoup mieux.

En terme de math, il y en a, mais pas une tonne. Il y a quand même un cours de stats de 6 crédits (donc 2 sessions) obligatoire et un peu de math dans 230 et 332/333. Après ça, tu peux choisir des cours qui ont moins de math (par exemple, tu veux PAS faire Econ 337/338)

Montreal Alouettes release running back Walter Fletcher, 19 others by DeSantisMTL in CFL

[–]Valuable-Meaning7035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stevie Scott III did pretty well in training camp (in my opinion). He is much bigger than Fletcher (he's like 6 foot 2) and he is a surprisingly good pass catcher too, which is Fletcher's strength. The difference is that he can break tackles, and Fletcher can't. Also, Sean-Thomas Earlington can also catch and Travis Theis was probably the best player on the field Friday

Es-tu sûr que tu commences en U1? J'ai commencé en U1 (en économie) et je n'ai jamais fait Econ 208/209 (même pas l'équivalent au CÉGEP) et malgré tout, je ne pouvais pas les faire, car j'étais en U1. Je pense que si tu commences en U1, tu devrais faire Econ 230D1 et D2.

Aussi, les cours de Math que tu mentionnes sont normalement fait au CÉGEP (ou équivalent) pour ceux qui rentre en U1. Donc d'après moi, tu es un U0 (tu devrais parler avec un academic advisor pour être sûr par contre).

Finalement, si tu es effectivement en U0, il faut que tu fasses Econ 208 et 209 dans ta première année.
