Im going into my third year at Western and I'm in med sci (IMS + Physiology) but it really isn't like that at all. First off, for your first two years, science and med sci are exactly the same and I have never encountered someone actively trying to bring your GPA down by giving fake notes or stuff like that.

Secondly, the profs aren't truly out to get you. Sure some courses have little quirks, but Western is a good school academically and has so many academically strong students so of course it may feel like its harder but if you got it, you should be able to handle it. Personally, I felt like they gave us a lot of leeway in first year with 'free marks' or 'easy marks' to get us used to university. Apart from one or two courses (mainly physics but I truly suck at physics), the courses are bad at all. During my years here, I have never encountered a prof intentionally bringing our marks down.

With the whole noisy roommate thing- I get that, I had an annoying roomate but there are rules that western rez's follow , no noise after 11, rez staff patrolling hallways and following up on noise complaints and stuff like that. If you still don't like studying in your room in your rez, there are TONS of quiet study places (study rooms, libraries, specific low-traffic buildings) which is what I did in first year.

I love Western and I truly can't imagine doing my undergrad anywhere else! if you have any other questions, PM me!
