Stat 1124 pre req

Hi folks I’ll need to be doing stat 1124 as a pre req for nursing but it also says to have either foundations or pre calc 11 as a pre requisite I already did that in hs it was 2020 I believe so it’s been more than 3 yrs and they say I have to redo it even though I have the grade cut off they’re looking for in pre calc 11. So my question is if I just register for stat will they know will it be a big deal to not repeat math 11 the idea of redoing math 11 is absolutely insane to me. Is it really that important will it affect my performance in stat?

HELP

Hello everyone,

I’m currently in LEAP 7, and I’m planning to take the LET exam so I can study a university transferable English course ,like ENGL 1100, to apply to UBC, so I want to be as prepared as possible. Could you recommend any resources I could use to study? Also, is the LET exam easier than the IELTS? I have some anxiety about taking the IELTS, so I’ve been avoiding it. Additionally, is it possible to achieve a score of 4 on the LET exam? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Seeking Advice for Switching to Computer Science: Courses, Professors, Resources, and SFU Transfer Tips

Hello everyone,

I’m considering switching my program to Computer Science, though I don’t have any prior experience or coursework in the field. I haven’t taken any CS classes before, so I’d love to get advice on how best to get started and navigate this change.

I’m also planning to transfer to SFU eventually, so if anyone has insight on which specific courses to take for that path, especially for the first semester, that would be incredibly helpful. I’ve already reached out to counseling, academic advising, and the Computer Science department, but unfortunately didn’t find the guidance I was looking for. If anyone knows someone at the college who could help with this or has been through a similar experience, I’d really appreciate your insight!

I’d also love recommendations for any professors to either seek out or avoid, along with tips to make this program feel more manageable.

Additionally, if you have suggestions for LinkedIn Learning courses or other resources I could check out before starting, or any pros and cons of the CS program, please let me know.

Langara class recommendations for next semester

Hi! I am currently taking psych 1115 and 1215 and they're my favourites of the semester. I loved the chapters where we learnt about human biology, I was wondering if anyone had any biology class recommendations with engaging profs that don't include much math? thanks

Does anyone have any Psych 1115 recorded lectures or links to them?

I’m currently taking this course and I’m finding myself struggling to follow along with the speed in which the material is delivered. I’m also taking Psych 1215 but I find the delivery methods to be easier to digest by that particular professor. My Psych 1115 prof uploads the slides but doesn’t record the lectures and a lot of the slides are just images with no descriptions/ explanations included. After the first exams it’s clear that I’m not understanding the material/ concepts. If anything ideally YouTube links like my Psych 1215 class does that would be extremely helpful.

Do I have to come to class after the final exams?

This might be a silly question, but my last final exam for this semester is on December 11 so does that mean I won't have to come to class after that date?

Thanks in advance :)

Recovering from a Second Academic Suspension

Hi guys I was having mental health problems some time ago and I’m really scared to appeal my second academic suspension to come back to school.

Venting on here and asking for real (real) advice to not be such a stinker and shoot my shot (the appeal.). How should I write it? I know there’s a how-to-write-an-appeal guide on the school’s website. I’m just scared I might get denied and be forced to go to school at VCC or worse 😭

Student Safety

Hi Langara, another school reporter here. I’m looking to find information around the process students deal with when they have concerns regarding their physical safety at Langara. If you have any experience in the matter or know someone who has, that would be willing share even anonymously please reach out privately or feel free to mention it on this thread.

The hope of this story is that if we can identify flaws in the process we push for changes that might help make campus a safer space for everyone, thank you and bless.

Program switch help

I’m currently in first year Criminology right now and taking 5 courses (Big mistake, i know) but planning to drop 1 of the courses, and I want to change programs to ECE. Crim and ECE are both limited enrollment, so I’m just wondering if there will be any complications to switching? And do I just fill out the program switch form and email it, or is there some other stuff i have to do? and how much will my current grades in my crim program matter when switching to ECE, will it be harder to switch if the grades are poor? I’m pretty lost and new to all of this stuff so I’m still having trouble navigating things like this, i’d appreciate any advice at all. Thank you!

Experience with Student Accessibility Services

Hey folks, I'm a journalist with the Langara Voice and I'm currently working on a story about Langara's Accessibility Services. Has anybody any experiences with getting an appointment, or just the general accessibility of Langara as a campus? I noticed that on the website it says that getting an intake appointment can take 2-3 weeks, which seems like just another thing to stress about at the start of a semester (especially for international students, who already have to manage moving an integrating into a new country).

Nursing Question

Hi, I was just wondering if we would have to pick our own classes (like we did for pre-reqs), or a ready made schedule would just be given to us?

If it will be the ready made scheds, what time would those be coming out for the upcoming semester?

Also, for those who are already in the program, what things would you suggest us to buy that will help us in our classes or clinicals?
