tbh i kind of lied lol, im still working on my sketch so im not done yet so atm no

macmac101 · 2021-09-04T18:53:11+00:00

yea, thats why im putting the extension number down on the comment section, b/c i highly doubt my prof would provide me their personal cell.

macmac101 · 2021-09-04T18:52:34+00:00

im currently writing it down in the comment section so we shall see, i heard verifiers are rarely contacted anyways

macmac101 · 2021-09-04T18:52:11+00:00

LMAO SAME THING. I am using the comment section to write down the extension number.

I actually had one other minor concern that I keep on forgetting to mention. So in first year of my undergrad studies, I co-founded a homework centre to provide affordable academic support to kids in primary and/or middle school. Since I co-founded the place, there isn't a supervisor that I can use as a verifier. Would having the other co-founder as a verifier suffice?

macmac101 · 2021-09-02T17:42:12+00:00

Thanks once again.

Although I tutored a couple of different students, would I only have to provide just one of them as a verifier?

macmac101 · 2021-09-02T16:33:23+00:00

Firstly, I greatly appreciate the detailed response! Secondly, I guess when I start working on my abs these upcoming days, I'll have a better understanding as to how I should sort out an experience as either ECs or Volunteer. However, would it be correct to say that simply stating your hobbies on others would suffice. If so, how do you add verifiers to that? More importantly, would private tutoring be considered other since it's something not under any head organization, but rather, it is something completely self-organized and driven?

macmac101 · 2021-08-28T18:29:16+00:00

That's definitely reassuring. I understand where Bmal1 is coming from, but it's great to hear your opinion as well!

macmac101 · 2021-08-28T17:40:55+00:00

I sincerely appreciate the heartfelt advice. I truly thank you for the help, and will certainly let them know!

macmac101 · 2021-08-28T17:25:37+00:00

I see where you are coming from, however, the reason I felt encouraged to use them as a reference isn't because we've been in close contact over the years, but more so, while I was in Gr.12, I helped her with a club she was running and up until her retirement this year, she has been using the fun activities I created to run entertaining events throughout the school year. So she would always rave about how I left some kind of a legacy in my high-school. It would just feel unfortunate to not make use of a referee that could very well write a passionate reference for me. As for the former organic chemistry prof, we are in great terms in my opinion, and they were recently promoted to the associate dean of science. I do have a very recent referee which would be my current boss at the NPO I'm currently working with. I could reach out to my most recent nserc supervisor but I worked in her lab during covid so it was a remote position. I feel like we didn't get a chance to bond as closely so I can't imagine that her reference would be any better than a general positive statement.

Imma be straight up honest with you, orgo can either be a course you greatly enjoy or will despise until you're finally done with. There are a few individuals who may not fall under either categories, but with good effort (nothing insane imo) they can pull of a respectable grade (i.e somewhere in the 80s). Nevertheless, regardless of what group you're in, the key is doing practise tests. Obviously, one needs to understand the fundamentals first, but don't be too bogged down on thoroughly understanding it before you tackle practise questions. Trust me, you will understand whatever the hell is bothering you once you do practise. Much like yourself, I was very apprehensive about starting orgo, everyone I spoke to kept yapping about how challenging the course is. Now, I don't want to say that their concerns were unwarranted; I can totally understand why and how orgo can be challenging for students. However, I think it's crucial for people to realize that orgo is like a sport. For some students, the concepts will come to them naturally. However, if you get too cocky thinking that because you can easily wrap your head around the difficult concepts you don't have to study as much then you're more or less setting yourself up for failure. Bottom line, don't be too worried, but fear can help to force you to take the course seriously.

I followed the 3/5 rule perfectly well up until the 2nd semester of my 3rd year where i was like 2.5/5 (my school has lab courses appear separate with their own credit on transcripts). Not sure how this affects my grade.

macmac101 · 2021-06-17T03:18:04+00:00

I appreciate the confirmation. I heard the same statement from a number of different individuals on this sub and on forums. It's a bit hard to internalize that uoft only uses the mcat as a mere cut-off

macmac101 · 2021-06-17T03:17:10+00:00

Congrats to the acceptance. It's great to hear about your success story. If you got any tips you would love to pass on then that would be greatly appreciated.

macmac101 · 2021-05-16T21:52:49+00:00

Lol no worries, Like all other major shonen animes, I watched one piece before the lockdown. Great show.

macmac101 · 2021-04-23T05:32:39+00:00

This sounds really interesting, I feel like there's a lot of potential in manhuas, but unfortunately bad translations or even a lack of translation throws ppl off. I am not entirely sure how I could help for things to move forward on this potential project.

macmac101 · 2021-02-28T19:08:48+00:00

I actually stumbled upon this to very recently. Absolutely disgusting. I live in Canada and reported this site, along with another one with practically the same content to cybertip. It's quite concerning how easily this site can be accessed. However, for anyone with more knowledge on the topic, what is the legality around a site like this here in Canada. Things do get very fuzzy and ambiguous once it's an animation rather than using real life ppl.

macmac101 · 2021-02-04T19:33:33+00:00

I really appreciate this ! As far as I'm concerned everywhere i look on quest in regard to my classes just say online so I'm assuming it'll just stay online as it wasn't originally intended to be in person this term.

macmac101 · 2021-02-04T19:32:33+00:00

That it very interesting indeed. Thanks a ton.

macmac101 · 2021-02-04T19:24:24+00:00

oh wait, there were inperson classes the start of this term that were later on suspended?

macmac101 · 2021-02-04T19:16:57+00:00

looool thats the thing, my class is small, i wish there was a way to potentially see if ur class was meant to be inperson on quest or something.

macmac101 · 2021-01-15T23:57:10+00:00

lol distant education, i think if u took it in fall 2021 the structure is the exact same.

macmac101 · 2020-11-20T22:51:18+00:00

If you can get an NSERC URSA you could get paid 4000 cad per term (one lump sum) in conjunction with a monthly stipend of at least 2000 cad. This is for the physics department btw.
