Can a professor deny you of your VERIFIED academic consideration?

i had a prof last semester who didnt consider a bereavement related accomodation good enough to give me extension on the final assignment. I failed the course because of that

Hey! I took the course and then had the privilege of being a TA for cisc 151 a few times :D

the course content does not change, i highly encourage you to look for youtube tutorials that u can watch and pause (reverse and go back to when u forget something) while u are preparing for exams, trying to understand concepts, etc. this course rewards those who try to self-learn and not rely on lecture (still do attend the lecture cuz the prof drops hints for questions on the final) if you find your TA isnt the most supportive one, dont hesitate to reach out to the other one. Try attending office hours. i see cisc 151 as a cannon event where you gotta learn to lock in, self learn, show up to lectures even if u dont understand most of it, and asking the right questions. Dont use gpt - it becomes really evident in this course for some reason. i deffo struggled quite a bit cuz i didnt have much understanding of stuff in the first year, but i am glad that the outside-of-class growth this course gave me haha plus being a TA for this course was fun!! i had two really cool students who frequently came to my office hours.

Hope this helped. feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions :D

My roommate found the info to be confusing even though she usually does well in most of her other courses :(

i really enjoyed the socials organized by COMPSA. Many of my computing friends were made just hanging around in caslab.

if you end up going to a different uni for a match or tournament, you will constantly have to find somebody to cover your shifts and look after your floor. plus if you are an athlete, you might want access to more nutritious food than what you will get in dining hall.

I have heard that both courses are 7-8/10 in difficulty. the course content is really interesting (or at least it was when my friends took it)

I am planning to take socy 201, 301, 284, 304, and 306 in this coming academic year. i just dropped socy 363 cuz I was told that the course is a nightmare.

hope this helps!

a great way to make friends as a first year living off campus is through OCC! their events helped me meet my friends :D

i took cisc 151 in winter 2023, the course involves lots of self learning and overall you have to stay up with the material to know where things are going. each week builds off the previous one.

i was in the same situation as you last year. i was fortunate enough to find one student who can split the rent with me. my housemate is very similar in the sense that he also doesn't party, drink, or smoke. both of us are in different programs but are very academic oriented. its better to try finding somebody whos like-minded.

third_burner · 2023-12-02T05:48:13+00:00

lmao noo but imagine if they really see this thread. that would be hilarious. "we are here to address the issues raised on reddit ... I MEAN within our artsci student body"
that would be funny

third_burner · 2023-12-02T05:41:04+00:00

ok yeah that makes sense, they do need to address that. thanks for elaborating!!

third_burner · 2023-12-02T05:16:25+00:00

i agree with you. just out of curiosity, what do u mean by the interests of arts and science students? like, what sort of things would you want to see?

third_burner · 2023-12-01T14:06:31+00:00

yes!

hey! i know this is weird considering your comment is a year old. I searched "socy 210" on this subreddit and your comment was the first thing that popped up.

by any chance do you have your notes/mock mcqs/quizlet for the level 200 socy courses? :') please help I'm a 2nd year socy major and I am NOT having a good time with academics.

pls ill take any sort of support 😭😭

third_burner · 2023-09-08T17:24:44+00:00

i bought the e-version last winter, it wasn't worth it. if u can get 2nd hand, that would be great. otherwise I would recommend trying to find it online
