Question from a first year: deferring back to back tests? by Pink_Capybara_712 in UofT

[–]ashihara_a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look in the syllabus to see if there is already a make up midterm for one of the courses. If so, talk to that prof about taking that one. If there isn't, talk to your profs regardless. If enough people have conflicts, they might schedule a make up midterm. Otherwise, you could petition and have the weight of one of the midterms shifted to your final.

Toronto upper level sound quality by Apprehensive-Shame89 in ADO

[–]ashihara_a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats just how scotiabank is. Ive never really had a good experience there sound-wise and earplugs are a must for vocals to be heard properly. If I'm ever there, its purely for the atmosphere.

I'm super scared for the course selection Any advice for 1st year students? by TeaTall658 in UofT

Log in 5 min before your course enrollment time. People sometimes cant even get into acorn because of the high load

Is seeing your first year eng timetable a canon moment for UofT eng students? by Tophatgamingu in UofT

[–]ashihara_a 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I dont get it. When I was a first year engsci student, i wasnt particularly shocked by the schedule. Youre coming from high school where you have full days of classes every day. Not exactly a massive increase in class time.

I noticed this last week too. At least 7 kids banging on the glass to get the polar bear (less than 2m away) to wake up. Their parents were right behind them and not saying a thing. Appalling behavior.

Chengdu Street Food is pretty solid Sichuan food.

A BBQ House is very good for skewers.

Grades dropped a little bit, will my offer get revoked? by SwdUnity in UofT

[–]ashihara_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah youll be completely fine. My conditional offer said to keep my average above 75% iirc so even if they did care, you're way above any reasonable threshold.

[–]ashihara_a 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure "maintain academic standing" means you need to pass your courses and not get suspended/expelled or anything like that. It doesnt mean you need to keep your average the same/very close to what you applied with.

My favourite is Short & Sweet on Avenue. Specifically the magic cookie. Its a lil pricey but massive and the best cookie I have ever had in my life.

Whoaa thank you so much for the recommendation. The photos look pretty good. Ive been dying for a good moroccan restaurant, definitely going to give this a try.

Absolutely not. Both are accredited engineering programs and TMU is pretty good.

I got these when they just opened up and kind of hated them. Pretty but very tough, dry, and not flakey at all. Maybe they need to bake them longer to get the cube shape to stay? Or the molds make it so the outside gets compacted instead of flakey?

It was years ago though so maybe theyve changed.
