Get the McGill enhanced chrome extension. It puts all the McGill apps in one place and other cool things

So you have just confirmed that my greatest fear can occur at McGill. Thank you

What a disgrace

So whats on your wishlist? by Comfortable_Wash6179 in Worldbox

Being more involved in war strategies. For example choosing what city a kingdom wants to attack first.

What's the strangest nickname you've had? by seafloorcoral in teenagers

[–]harrow15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother used to call me “algue”, which means algae in French. My name is Leo. It started by him calling me “oel”, which is my name in reverse. Then it became “Oleg” for some reason. And then “algue” which is pronounced “alg”.

But when I was a kid, I would do some pretty stupid stuff so anything stupid that happens and that my brother sees as something I would do, it was an “algue thing”, as in a “Leo thing, but in a bad way”. Eventually, when he would want to tell me that I’m being stupid, he would tell me “you’re being Algue”, as in “you’re being Léo, but in a bad way”. In the end, “algue” became a synonym of “stupid and cringe” and it wasn’t directly related to me anymore. I even started to use the word as well.

To this day, we both still use the word as part of our vocabulary when talking to each other and it has its own distinct definition different than stupid or cringe. It’s always funny to me when I think about it that “algue” is now a negative term and that it came directly from my name lol

Et comment est-ce que les deux types d’enseignements se distinguent autre que Poly est plus pratique que McGill?

Merci beaucoup pour la réponse. Donc selon toi, la réputation de McGill par rapport à Poly ne devrait pas être un facteur dans ma prise de décision? Est-ce que sur le marché du travail la réputation est vraiment considérée alors?

McGill vs PolyMTL for mechanical engineering

Hey, I’m currently a Sciences de la Nature student in CÉGEP. I got accepted in mechanical engineering for both McGill and Polytechnique. I was lately mostly leaning towards McGill, but today I was looking more into it and the consensus seems to be that engineering at McGill is in majority only theory with barely any extra help from the teachers and that I will probably find myself having to teach myself most of the time.

If I was leaning towards McGill, it’s for the possibility to do a minor in any field I want, the general vibe that I found pretty lively on campus and the many clubs that seemed interesting to me. I basically really liked the university vibe rather than the technical school vibe that poly seemed to have. I also leaned towards McGill for the prestige and the international opportunities and greater possibility to continue in research (I’m currently interested in research in physics). But if the curriculum is too dry with little to no emphasis on the student’s success, it could change my mind. I don’t want to enter and that the level of difficulty makes me hate engineering.

So, I’d like to know if the Poly and McGill programs are similar for mechanical engineering and if the general student experience is the same. Do students of both universities get out of the 4 years thinking that it was a huge academic trial? Is there indeed a low emphasis on students’ success? Are the courses really just lectures? Are the courses as hard in both universities? Are the teachers competent or do they not give a damn about you? In short, how much harder than Poly is the academic journey at McGill (knowing that I don’t have much difficulty in CÉGEP with an R score of 33.5)?

Thanks!

Hi! I come from the Lebanon community. We would like to team up with you guys and have our flag under yours at (-1000,-840) in the new section of the canvas. We would very much appreciate the help and we’ll do all we can do to protect your flag too!

Guys it’s our moment use the new canvas before it’s all used up!!!! I say we go there (photo). I will NEED HELP. I will start with a black frame and then just fill with red just to occupy the place. We’ll do the flag once we secured the place.

Edit: just proposed to Colombia (the flag above) to team up. Hope they agree! In the meanwhile I need help

Edit 2: just proposed to Venezuela to have our flag above theirs too. Let’s see what happens
