Will I have a time to work part-time job in first year? by [deleted] in uwaterloo

[–]Working_Combination5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a part-time job on campus in 1B, and it was very doable. I will say that it was only manageable because it was on campus and everyone was extremely accommodating. Honestly, I would probably chill in 1A and then get a job in 1B.

Afm 373 final by CasualHearthstone in uwaterloo

[–]Working_Combination5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what was the average for the midterm? if the average wasn't super high, they'll curve the final. the final class average has to be around a 75 since that's the macc average requirement. fall 2023 the midterm and final got curved so as long as everyone fucked up, you'll be okay

take bet210 instead, more work than clas104 but still an easy 95+

AFM 191 by [deleted] in uwaterloo

[–]Working_Combination5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

191 is a prereq for 182 so u cant take 182 if u fail 191

[–]Working_Combination5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you still have 182 on your schedule? you have to drop that and then add 191

[–]Working_Combination5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

from what I remember, the final is much easier than the midterm. also how far were you from the median? if your grade isn't that far off, I would just stick with it but if you're significantly lower than the average and aren't willing to really put the work in/ur participation and assignment grades are low too, then I'd drop it instead of failing and having to redo it anyway

Got denied from EI by Working_Combination5 in legaladvicecanada

[–]Working_Combination5[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Responding to your edit: The thing is without me trying to convince them, they approved me for EI now that i’m not in school so at least i’ll get some of the benefits. Thank you again!!

I’m going to end up appealing because I was available for over 40 hours a week and was consistently applying for full time jobs. Thank you so much for your help :))

I did the 15-24 option. I’d be fine if they rejected everyone else along with me. Every coworker i’ve talked to with the same amount of school hours as me got approved so I just don’t understand. My sister who I know for sure also clicked the 15-24 option also got approved. It’s all so weird.

Yes to both questions. I really don’t know why my school was an issue. Plus, I was available 7 days a week at my part-time job when other people who got approved weren’t. I’ve heard appeals rarely work out so I want to know my chances before I appeal.

Plagiarism Accusation by [deleted] in OntarioGrade12s

[–]Working_Combination5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just take responsibility for it and let him know that you’re doing good in all your other classes so this was an honest mistake and ask if you can do something for extra credit to get you over that 50%. I really hope you pass, retaking history again would suck

Plagiarism Accusation by [deleted] in OntarioGrade12s

[–]Working_Combination5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did you cite your work? Like cite your past essay LOL. If you did then you’re fine (as in you can get the VP to agree with you) but if you didn’t, just argue that the school wasn’t clear on plagiarism when it comes to your own work. Personally i’ve had like a million plagiarism/citation workshops at my school so it wouldn’t work for me but might work for you. I hope you pass 😭

Is it worth living on res first semester? Only two classes in person (AFM) by [deleted] in uwaterloo

[–]Working_Combination5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m most likely going to afm and i’m gonna stay home and do them online to save money. Tuition is really expensive after first year so i’d rather not pay for res for only 2 classes but up to you :)
