So how was it, did you guys grant the loan? 😭 I'm just glad I finished lol
Is there anywhere I can find the data on students that land NY finance from Ivey? Basically trying to figure out how likely it is for someone with Wall Street aspirations.
Thinking of things like number of students that land, GPA requirements (who ends up landing?), etc.
Anecdotal data welcome from current or former students.
Thanks!
Does anyone know how long I have to wait to be getting off the waiting list for CPR and first aid course from UWO ? Actually I would prefer they can delay my waiting list until December even if my current waiting list is for Nov 16th and 17th, because I have to work on Nov 16th and 17th temporarily on campus.....
I just sent in some applications to post grad programs and I wanted to be able to thank my professors for their reference letters. I did send emails but I was wondering if it would be possible to send a handwritten note to their offices. I won't be able to go all the way to london so does anybody know how to do this?
Hey, So I took calc 1000 A and B last year and failed both times by just not studying and doing any of the content or nothing( I was completely idiotic and stupid I know). I'm retaking it again; and I just did the midterm and I need to get a 60 in this course; problem is I'm extremely stressed out. I felt I was ready. I went through the previous midterms; I did the full midterm prep for wizeprep and did a alot of the practice questions. I studied like there is no tomorrow for a whole week. Now the midterm was yesterday; and I honestly don't know what happened; My mind just blanked on how to do the questions even though I studied them; this just made me stress even more then the already pre-existing stress I had. After a while I calmed my self down and tried completing the questions I knew, which I solve and was confident that I got it correct; however the other questions no matter how hard I tried remembering how to solve it I just couldn't connect. My plan is if I pass; I'll keep on doing the course however if I fail I'm going to drop it and take it next semester. I wanted to ask was anyone in the similar situation and like what did they do to overcome it. I used to like math alot but after taking private school in high school for calc(which I learned nothing from), I felt like I was out of touch with my math side.
Has anyone finished a degree pursuing any MOS degree and then went onto pursuing a second one online? I was going through the ones offered at UofT. Thoughts/suggestions welcome
“We won’t put up any past exam questions”
“We won’t copy paste any questions from any past midterms”
“We definite will not be reusing the same questions from last year”
💀
Hey guys,
Has anyone received the in-course scholarship yet? Or does anyone know when the in-course scholarship will be issued?
Thank you!
Wondering what anyone has done when they have a really bad exam schedule, as in hard module courses back to back within the span of 5 days. This happened to me last semester and it was hell.
FAM midterm tmr. super nervous and genuianley might fail. does anyone have any advice? or stories from their experience? can my grade go up
Hi, I have a couple of questions about makeup exams at Ivey. How much harder is it compared to the original exam? Do our grades still get curved with the rest of the section even if we write the makeup exam? Also, what happens if we miss the makeup exam does the weight get shifted or will I have to write the exam when the course is next available?
Thanks!
I truly did not feel comfortable with some courses I have been taking in Fall 2024 and have had some negative experiences with this. I am considering taking inter-department courses (from UWO) which are related to my previous academic education coursework background and I believe personally urban planning or geography planning course can be more relevant to my prior education background, but I just conducted online search, there has been no exactly urban planning department or school within UWO and there is only geography department or I would call it urban development program in UWO (not sure if this is independent school), so I guess urban planning graduate level course open seats would be very limited for Winter 2025 or Summer 2025, anyone here has taken geography planning classes or urban development classes before and can provide some suggestions here ?

Hello,
I am currently a 2nd year med sci student and after my midterms I've realized that I do not enjoy biology as much as I enjoy chemistry. My goal is to go to dental school (this could change tbh) and I understand that dental schools in Canada have slightly different pre requisites and it's very competitive. But I'd like to have some feedback and know if this is a good idea or if I should try to stay in medsci as I'm already in my second year.
Hey guys, i wanna send flowers to my gf who lives on res at western (ohall). Im not at western so im not sure if i can send flowers to her or the front desk and she picks it up or something? Would that work?
Also, any good flower places nearby that charge well and deliver?
I go up to the bar at Jacks ordering a drink and some girl walks up beside me and says to me what are you for Halloween? Jeffery Dahmer? and what am I suppose to say to that…?
I can’t help I wear glasses, yeah they’re gold aviators but still am I wrong for finding a comment like that very much insulting and rude to a man’s confidence ? I feel horrible as a man, being told I look like a serial killer like what the fuck did I deserve to be told that I look like a killer
I don’t understand why people are so mean… I didn’t even approach them that’s the shittiest part. This is part of the reason why I don’t wanna go out to meet new people or move out of my comfort zone and try new things like bar hop because of assholes like that… I get made fun of enough I don’t understand I’m never rude to other people for how they look.
I went to Korea in my second year for one sem and I am hoping to go to Europe for my fifth year! From what I know you can do max of two semesters so hopefully I can go one more time?? A friend I met during my exchange went twice too although he was from NY
How did you guys find the classics midterm???
Hope everything is well / turns out well iA🙏🏼
I guess department office is closed for now, but I just sent the graduate course dropping form request to department today, will it still count as request sent on 10-31-2024 ?
I recently got my midterm mark for orgo (prof accidentally released it lol) and while it’s an ok mark, I still wanna score higher on the final. I did all the Wiley questions to study for the midterm as well as ask on the forum question I didn’t understand. Does anyone have tips on scoring higher on the final exam?
How is the course? I have programming experience from Gr 11 and 12 so CS1026 is very manageable for me so far. Was wondering how hard CS1020 is. Thanks!
Hello all! I am currently taking mos 2227 and mos 2228 as business 2257 was full when picking my courses. However, I would like to try to apply to Ivey so I am thinking about taking business 2257 in the summer. Is 2257 an ant requisite to mos 2227/2228? If I were to take business 2257 in the summer, would mos 2227/2228 still count as courses on my transcript and for my Ivey application? Thank you for your help and I apologize if my question was worded in a confusing way.
if im really behind on content and need to first spend time learning concepts, would prep be good for biochem? ive used it before when i was behind and it was good but they were not science courses so im unsure if this will be as useful if im behind on content. thanks!
Okay so...
- Dropped Calc 1000
- Want to take Math 1228 in Winter Term
Is this possible / has anyone done this before? I know that you need an 80% average but is that the only requirement? Or will they deny me even if I have met the minimum average requirement for overloading.
Also, it says I need to complete a minimum of 2.0 credits by January, but technically I'll only have 1.0 credit complete since I'm taking two full year courses this term. Will they still accept my overload request?
How long does it take for them to follow up with a submission? Trying to get out of something next week and requested yesterday.
What did everyone think of the mos2309 midterm today?
I had to get a med note because I missed my midterm but the med note was put down as a moderate issue will they still accept it?
Has anyone here ever been working as library assistant in UWO ? What is your overall experiences with this position so far ?
Does anyone know when the BUS 2257 makeup exam will be?
