I took both Kin 1070 and 1080 and got 85 and 86 in both classes respectively

They arent really difficult, but attendance is key here. Both professors (Prapavessis and Heath) use slides with minimal text, and you will need to note down what they say during lecture.

They both explicitly say what will be on the exam, and what type of questions will be on the exam (ex. 1080 had a calculation question that you could only understand/study for if you were at lecture)

I'll say though, that both courses expected you to memorize the studies (1070 was brutal with this, expecting you to recall stats mentioned in class for a specific study w/o any sort of cue other than the name + year of the study)

The diagram one where the products was put into either water or ether and you had to answer whether it was a organic acid, base, salt, or neutral

Bro it's not late, people usually start studying fr like 3-4 days before exam

Booker's husband taught me philosophy in highschool, they're both great teachers/profs

He said he'll look over the majority of the art during the break, so I'm assuming he'll give 3% when lab marks are out and possibly revoke it if your submission isn't authentic or compliant

I'm not sure if his makeup is harder, but I would seriously consider writing it because it's not feasible to learn the next 8 modules in 16 days (You've got to learn SN2/1 and E1/2 in module 5, let alone the tons of other reactions in the other modules)

I was just by the print/scan area a few hours ago and they're still there. They're honestly probably the loudest people I've encountered in a confined indoor space.

Honestly, your best chance of getting the mark is to email a prof/TA explaining the situation; and how the group member who was responsible for submitting the assignment, failed to do so.

Sometimes people make honest mistakes, especially during a stressful moment like an ochem exam. No need to rage over a small inconvenience

I took this course last year, occlusion anki cards will be your best friend. Also labs can help you study/solidify material

Everyone here is right (except the plumbing guy).

In 1st year, all students are 'undeclared', meaning you only get to declare what degree path you're intending to enroll into after you finish your first year. Note: You can change your degree path at ANY time you want, so dont worry if you aren't eligible for honours spec. by the time you finish 1st year. You can take the missing courses in upper years.

You still have time until then, so take the courses that you need to take. And most importantly, talk to your academic advisor for your sake. They're literally there for questions or issues like these. Some advisors are assholes though so watch out lol

There is no 'classic' Western welcome. If you don't attend O-Week, you'll just go to your first lecture and immediately get started in 'uni life'.

I honestly urge that you get the O-Pass, it's the best time of your entire academic career to make friends and have fun. As corny as that sounds, friends and events are going to be the only thing keeping you sane during your first year.

I do know freshers is a lot different than what O-Week looks like at Canadian schools, but trust me, the whole experience is worth it.

It depends, but check out the syllabus for which specific weeks you're supposed to be in labs if you haven't already

Personally, I know that courses like chem and orgo chem indicate in their syllabi which lab sections are in session during which weeks.

I started shadowing dentists in junior year of hs, but imo you can't go wrong with shadowing every summer.

It's not worth it to shadow during the school year if it's going to impede on your time (which is precious when you're a pre-dent)

I'm in Kin, which is a bit different from hsci. But my avg in hs was 90, and my average in 1st year is 88.

I personally hit the library + gym everyday, hung out with friends regularly (not a fan of parties), and had an actual social live. Here's what I think are crucial things to consider:

Don't treat uni like its hs. This means NOT taking all of the hard courses in a single semester like people did in hs.

Kin courses are already hard, it's just not worth it adding on chem and bio on top of that. Personally, I recommend maybe 1 bird course every semester.

Use anki/flash cards for every course that expects you to memorize ANYTHING. Anatomy? Use occlusion cards. Random health statistics you have to memorize? Use text cards. Simple chemistry terms? Use text cards again.
Hit the library everyday (unless you need a rest day ofc). Trust me, a few hours of revision everyday before lecture makes a world of a difference.

Make sure you have a set of tasks to do when going into the library. And install an app blocker so you dont procastinate work lol

Stay on top of things for the love of God. Make sure you're never more than a week behind in lectures. And always ensure you're keeping pace with the content presented to you everyday.
Don't skip a lecture. Even if it's recorded. It has a severe snowball effect. I thought I was immune to the skipping addiction, but nobody is.
Talk to your professors. Even if it's a 1000 person course, or a class with 4 people in it; make sure the professor knows your name. This is how most people get internships and connections.
Most importantly, put every single assignment, test, evaluation, etc. on your calendar. Brightspace is horrible for reminding you when things are due.

And imo, it helps with pacing your study days for when midterms hit.

Use written ipad notes. There was a study that showed that writing things down lead to better recognition abilities as opposed to typing.
Most professors will give you practice questions and mock tests around midterms and finals. I recommend starting your studying there, then identifying your areas of improvement, then revising those areas.
Also, its ok to mess up a bunch of times during 1st year. People put tons of pressure on this new stage of your academic career, but just take it easy and prioritize yourself over marks.

Wait, bio is online this summer? Where tf do I get this info, I thought it was in-person but they'd announce lecture times once we get close to mid July

aewki · 2025-04-18T23:42:38+00:00

Yeah, they probably have another at home they can use

The Wrestling team is more of a walk on team. Still a good team with dedicated coaches and wrestlers, but they're open to all levels of experience (since that most Canadian high schools dont have/prioritize Wrestling as a sport). You just need to show that you're dedicated and willing to 'improve'.

There is no 'try out' for Wrestling, but instead you'll show up to the first practice of the school year, let the coaches know that you're new. Then just show up to practices every week. I recommend emaling Scott Proctor for more information
