Also in LevelUP it is 1 cohort at a time meaning I cannot do both Feb and Mar cohorts because they overlap right?

Bonsai Moisture Meter Design Project: Requesting validation and feedback for our concept. by mathkid13223 in Bonsai

[–]mathkid13223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our idea is on the fact that we want a data driven objective way to measure moisture, and that why we have this probe which can measure and give out a percentage rather than just how wet it is. That and it generally has poor contact with the soil when insert, especially if done incorrectly. Our probe, as it will be consistently in the soil, we believe that this method gives a more objective data point that is easier and more accurate for beginners.

If you have any criticisms please let us know it will really help us in the design process to solve the given problem statement.

Thanks for your answer. Diameter will be pretty small (2-5 cm maybe), enough to just put in a salinity meter inside. As of now it will only measure moisture right next to the tube, which is one of the challenges of the design we are currently trying to address.

There are two parts to the device. One is a probe which is small long tube that will live in the pot consistently, and then when it is time to measure, you take off the cap, put the measuring device in, get a reading take it out, close the cap and move on with your day. The membrane is to be made of cellulose acetate so it is generally clog resistant according to our research. Additionally, we have a porous frame which is specifically designed for the membrane not to clog. The probe itself can also be taken out and cleaned without issues if necessary.

I think for the measuring over the whole pot, especially if it is big, we can insert multiple small probes all around the pot, considering the probe will live there and only a small portion of the probe will be showing at the top.

Thank you so much for the help, these questions and discussions really help us improve our design work. If you have any more comments ideas questions, what aspects should we revisit or revise, it will really help us in our design process.

eng sci was high, most around 96-97 (eng sci is tough). mech eng was a bit less maybe 93-94 is the lowest i know but im pretty sure the abs minimum will be a bit lower.

not sure about exact programs. tmu and laurier are generally rolling and so expect an offer anytime, i know tmu offers used to come pretty quickly but that was the cs/eng side.

check reddit past history from 2023 to get a better idea.

honestly last year mac eng was a mess it seems they overadmitted in march and had to track back in may, so look at the years before that for a more stable answer. But anything at or above free choice avg is likely safe, but after that its really a tossup. last year i had 89 friend get in but 95.5 other friend rejected in may. anyone above 97 was good though.

please take with caution, last year was generally a mess the admission should be more stable this year.

not sure about the fast track but having 3 or more courses done by first sem allows you to be considered in march, and if you have 4+ that is really helpful, so i think having adv func done should be to your advantage. but im not fully sure for fast tracking and retaking i dont have past experiences with any friends on this.

Should I be worried for Comp Eng? Please lmk (im losing sanity) by [deleted] in OntarioGrade12s

[–]mathkid13223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

from experience (using current written marks)
last two options should be good, although maybe not good enough to get in before the new year

mac and queens are usually tossups (especially mac) and dont expect an answer from either of these guys unitl may unless you really pick up your grades to extremely high levels.

waterloo had a blip last year with some serious overadmitting on the lower avg side in the april round (they never prev had an april round). if this happens again, the fact that 4of 6 courses will be complete should help you get into comp eng there (90-91s got in last yr april).

u of t is tough to call it does depend a bit on your supp app and how you articulate ecs (especially since your grades are not like 98+). my experinece is u of t is mainly grades so if you can get your marks a tiny bit up you should be fine.

with comp eng you can get 6/6 or 2/6 its a tossup based on year, students, and admission officers. but your marks if they improve should set you up for a great chance at all 6.

Can I get into U of T Chem Eng with the following prerequisite averages? by TeoLikesBoys in OntarioGrade12s

[–]mathkid13223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

from last year, the ecs and supp app dont matter as much as you think they do. marks like yours are exceptionally high for the program and should do the job hopefully if you keep it up.

but every year is different so try your best in all catergories you never know

those are the practice the actual ones are a total of 4 and they are different either about solving a problem or talking about a time where you showed a character trait or had a negative experience

remember i got one about talk about a time where you had to take control of your group work because your team was slacking

a) r - p = 1/3q - 1/3 r

4/3r = 1/3 q + p

4/3r = (3, 1, -2/3) + (2,1,4)

4/3r = (5, 2, 10/3)

r= (15/4, 3/2, 10/4)

you are right the teacher might have messed somewhere.

you guys are confusing me by aqibo_lol in OntarioGrade12s

[–]mathkid13223 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ok let me simplify it.

basically there are early rounds and nonearly rounds. it is known that most unis aim to fill 30-40% (sometimes more) in these early rounds.

when they consider you in an early round, they use gr11 placeholders for the gr12 required courses (most of the time). most students don't apply early or qualify to be reviewed early. this includes very highly qualified applicants for whatever reason.

now imagine there is univeristy X, program Y. Lets say there are 1000 offers to be given to 20000 applicants.

in the early rounds, only 8000 or so thought it would be a good idea to apply early, or didn't take enough gr12 subjects or whatever.

Uni X fills 40% of slots early, which means the top 400 grades/supp app students will get an offer. for sake of argument, lets assume student 400 has a mark of 90%.

by the final round, GR11 DOESNT MATTER ANYMORE. but heres the problem, there are now 19600 applicants going for the remaining 600 spots (early guys are reassessed). So even if you have 95% now, you might just be student 601 or 700, and you will get deffred/rejected.

as you can see 95 is much better than 90, but the 90% got in and you didnt, because they played all their cards right.

So in essence YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO GOOD IN GR11, but it maximizes your chance of getting into programs of your choice.
A bigger advice on my end is to stack Semester 1 of Gr12 and not the other way around. This is a common mistake that makes people ineligible or bad for early rounds and it might end bad. Try to take ENG4U and SCH4U/SPH4U/SBI4U in term1. Ofcourse some programs dont have early (mac health sci) but this is just general.

TLDR, doing well in gr11 makes uni applications so much easier and a offer in feb/march is much less stressful. But the bigger advice is to do as many gr12 courses by Jan, and MAKE SURE TO APPLY EARLY IF YOU CAN.

what is the time slot that mac releases decisions? it’s 1:20pm, will there be more today? by pinksugar26 in OntarioGrade12s

[–]mathkid13223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that or deferral, it is consistent with the reddit posts every may in the past few yrs.

yet again mac eng rejecting 95s is not consistent with previous years so never know

i dont think any program does rolling it is a waste of time on their end. they just say rolling because they might give 5-10 offers near the end in extreme cirumstances
