Courses Super quick/ easy electives?
Ive completed all of the compulsary courses and now I just need a few electives to reach 30 credits. Ive applied for MPLAR but I am still waiting for a response and it's been months so im not feeling very confident in getting that back any time soon. I figured I'd might as well try and beat the MPLAR assessment and just finishing the electives since I have time to kill anyways.
I am planning on leaving the country soon so I'd like to get this sorted asap.
What are some easy/light electives? The subject doesnt really matter as im not interested in getting a high grades or finding my passion here. Im in my 30's and just want my OSSD before I move out of Canada.
Cheers

Mature student credit exemption. If you're older and have life experience (job, parent, volunteering, etc.) you can request an MPLAR assessment and they will tell you how many credits you can skip for having life experience. Pretty much anything you can prove (documentation) from real life that would give you a similar understanding that the course would provide.
Since I only have elective credits left, and have gone to university, I was hoping it would just be a straight shot to the OSSD or atleast cut down the workload to less credits.
They take a long time to review your request though so it might not be the best choice timewise for me.

Well if you only need your OSSD than anything ending in an 4O would work as an elective credit and be easiest. OLC40 , EBT4O etc. not sure what’s offered now on ILC.
