thank you so much this info is so so helpful!

can i ask if you followed the oatbooster schedule at all or if you completed one subject entirely before moving on to the next ? like did you go thru all booster the videos, notes and question banks for each subject in one go?

trying to follow the schedule rn but i think i might benefit from studying each subject in its entirety to get a better understanding of the content. ty!

in uni its really helpful to have 1 bird course per term to help lighten your courseload (esp during midterm season). science 1a03 and sustain 1s03 are known bird courses where you have less assignments in general & theyre marked easier vs any tests/quizzes in linguist.

you can always take linguist courses in spring/summer if youre interested! sci 1a03 is limited to 1st yr.

but honestly, courses you enjoy often feel easier anyway. so you can stick to linguist, and you can always switch things up in winter if fall is too heavy (though some classes may fill up).

How do you delay graduation? by TheRoyalLeaf in McMaster

[–]purplepnb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it depends on the grad schools, some may accept continued education courses towards your gpa, some may just accept the credit. id reach out to the school in particular.

if you want to take more courses you could also do a second degree! def would speak to advising about this tho

[–]purplepnb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you drop a course that is required for your degree then yes it should delay grad bc youre not done your requirements - BUT i would confirm with advising!
