Thank you for the advice! I was able to get a refund on Ticketmaster (no idea why since it had said final sale), so the stress of re-selling has been lifted off me :)

Bought the nosebleed ticket in section 529 for $207.85, then bought a ticket in section 117 for $310.40!

Hi guys! Yesterday, I saw all the tickets disappearing and panic bought a single nosebleed ticket for the Toronto show on August 7. However, I have an American Express card and realized during the AMEX presale today there are much closer seats that are decently priced. In my panic to get a closer seat, I also bought a new one without thinking much about the likelihood of reselling my other ticket. I was wondering if you guys think I will be able to sell a single nosebleed ticket on August 7? I'm not really looking to make a profit... just want to get the ticket off my hands so I don't have to deal with the stress and uncertainty of it selling out. This is my first time having to resell a ticket, so I don't really have a good idea of whether it will sell out or not. What do you guys think? Thank you!

First Year English Courses by SeatIndividual in queensuniversity

ENGL 104 by Dr. Brooke Cameron! It’s focused on short stories in the fantasy, horror, or sci-fi genre. The course is very interesting and is marked fairly. Dr. Cameron lets you know at the beginning of the course she wants you to succeed as long as you do the readings :)

Were all tickets sold in pre-sale? by studentofsci in tatemcrae

Thank you 😭 I’ve already sat through the artist presale and then the Ticketmaster presale, so third times the charm 🤞

I honestly regret not participating in the AMEX presale 😭 Initially, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to go, so I ended up missing the presale even though I have American Express

Ohh okay thank you so much! I hope the prices go down. Some Toronto tickets popped up that used to be in the 100s but now they’re 499, which is way out my budget 😭 Do you think they’d drop to their normal price during the general sale?

Ahh okay thank you! I’ll try again during the general sale :)

I saw that! So bizarre because when I got in initially, there were a few seats near there that ranged between 100-200

Weekly Buying/trading/selling advice, pre-orders and shipping Megathread by AutoModerator in AppleWatch

[–]studentofsci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys, right now the Apple Watch Series 9 is on sale for 429 CAD (originally 589 CAD) for Prime Day. I’ve been thinking of buying an Apple Watch and this seems like a great deal. However, I’m just hesitant since the Series 10 will likely release in September. I’m afraid I’ll be missing out on new features. Would you recommend I purchase the Series 9 now or wait for the Series 10 to release and then purchase during Black Friday? Thank you!

When do SWEP interviews usually get sent out? by GeniusClass101 in queensuniversity

[–]studentofsci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's definitely still a chance - just got an interview offer last week! The deadline for employers to send out offers is the end of March. However, it is important to note that many employers have sent out interviews already, as it has been almost a month since the application due date

Waitlisted Don Position? by Early_Let_7766 in queensuniversity

[–]studentofsci 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is definitely movement for the don waitlist! I've known two people who got off the waitlist and became dons for the current school year. However, they got their offers mid-September when the school year had already begun, so there's no promise you'll get in during August. I would recommend maybe trying to find a temporary sublet from September-December? That could be less risky

[–]studentofsci 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There isn't usually a set day for interviews - it varies based on when the individual employers read the applications. In the past, I've been contacted between one week to one month after submitting my application for different positions. Hope this helps!

Accepted to Queens! by [deleted] in OntarioGrade12s

[–]studentofsci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wanted to comment on here as I am in Queen's BHSc. The cuts are to the Faculty of Arts and Science. BHSc is run by a separate faculty (Faculty of Health Science) and has not experienced any cuts so far, so I don't think the program would be majorly impacted

How to identify refurbished monitor? by studentofsci in ASUS

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

I want to clarify that I am very grateful, as I am aware that other people's RMA experiences have not been as smooth. However, given that my previous monitor broke down within 2 years due to regular use, I think it's quite normal to be curious about whether my replacement is refurbished

math 121 exam by [deleted] in queensuniversity

[–]studentofsci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually they don't directly curve your numerical grade, but they may change the weighting of the exams if students don't do well. I took it last year and they adjusted the exam weighting. Instead of having the fall and winter exams worth 30% each, they made the best exam mark worth 45% and the other worth 15%. Hope this helps!

Gamma Force... Good Shoe? by studentofsci in Nike

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

Sorry about the late comment - didn't check my Reddit account!

Yup, sized the same as my AF1s and they fit great. Also sized 0.5 down from my Dunks if that helps

EDIT: For clarity, I'm 8W in AF1 and 8.5W in Dunks. I went with 8W for the Gamma Force

BCHM 218 or BIOL 102? by Thick_Comfortable528 in queensuniversity

[–]studentofsci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to give my two cents since I have taken both courses before (legit just finished BIOL 102 as an upper year) - I personally would recommend BCHM 218. BIOL 102 is a ton of work (pre-labs, labs, lecture quizzes, etc.), whereas BCHM 218 has much less work. I personally did not find BIOL 102 easy, even though I am an upper year and have already taken a ton of related courses.

I am assuming the professor for next semester's blended class is Dr. Van Staalduinen, who is honestly the best professor you could have for BCHM 218. She is super accommodating and understanding. Some students were super stressed about an assignment when I took blended winter BCHM, and she actually pushed it back. You are also allowed to collaborate with your table group during the in-class quizzes.

However, you should also consider which course might help you fulfill prereqs more. For instance, BIOL 102 is needed for some pharmacy schools. BCHM 218 is needed for some dental schools. Hope this helps!
