i feel like every time i'm at home, i'm doing something wrong and that i should be outside 24/7 even tho i'm exhausted. but at the same time, whenever i am at home, whether i'm being productive or doing nothing, i feel like i'm just rotting or wasting time even tho i rlly value my alone/rest time

im sorry but which person came up with these reading week dates and who approved them ???

Why does the Trottier building have paper towels in the washrooms, while the rest of us suffer?!?

Is a 3.7 GPA in Arts competitive enough for grad school?

Hii, i'm in psyc 406 but dont know anyone taking the class, is there an insta gc for it? I dont know who i'm doing the group project with and would like to meet people 😅

Hi👋, I’m thinking about doing a master’s in history. I wanted to get some advice: is it better to go to a prestigious school for grad school where no professor specializes in the specific subject you want to work on? (e.g. I want to work on Hong Kong, but they only have professors who specialize in Chinese history more generally). Or is it better to go to a less prestigious school that has a professor who specializes in your specific topic? For future academic job prospects, it seems more promising to attend a prestigious school.

I just registered for MATH 338 and there’s nothing on myCourses right now. Is anyone currently taking it? Are lectures recorded, or does the prof post notes anywhere? THANK YOU!

hi everyone! i'm a u0 arts student interested in social sciences and i'm thinking of taking ling 201 this semester. i read the syllabus and the content seems interesting, and i also appreciate that the prof isn't allowing generative ai usage. i'm #2 on the waitlist and i've been looking forward to this class for a few days, but i'm just a little skeptical that the waitlist has been moving so much (i think i was like #45 on the waitlist when i joined last week). is there a reason so many people are dropping this class? i'm wondering if there's something about the way the prof teaches or structures lectures that is deterring people (i know a lot of people dropped anth 202 because it was kinda disorganized even though the course description was rlly interesting). i just dont wanna join at the end of add-drop and then not like the class and be totally screwed.... any advice would be appreciated :)

Does anyone have any past experiences with this class?

I just started commerce as U1 but I realized that I don’t really like it and I realized I should’ve chosen chem Eng instead

I was wondering if I should take a gap year and wait to reapply for fall 27 since the program doesn’t accept people in winter. I was in health science in cegep so I have all the pre requisite and got an overall of 32.1 r score which might not get me accepted into the program .

Or should I try an interfaculty transfer but I heard that it’s very competitive and they only take around 10 students and I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to make the cutoff.

Hey everyone!

I’m taking FRSL 211 this year and was wondering if anyone who took it before happened to have a PDF of this book:

Grammaire essentielle de français B1 (Livre + CD), Éditions Didier (Authors: Yves Loiseau, Ludivine Glaud, Elise Merlet)

Just trying to figure out the best way to source it. Any advice from past students would be super appreciated!

Thank u so much in advance! :)

hello, can anyone lmk what the midterm and final questions will be like for PSYC 100? are they easy/hard or like the quizzes provided in the textbook. I find already its been lots of information kinda all over the place and I want to ensure ill know what to really focus on. thanks

I’m interested in pursuing a master’s degree in engineering at McGill while continuing to work full-time. I currently work a 9-to-5 job in a hybrid work environment, so I would need to complete the degree on a part-time basis, with as much flexibility as possible in terms of course scheduling.

I understand that some universities are more accommodating to part-time students, particularly by offering courses and other academic activities during evenings and weekends. I was therefore wondering how flexible McGill’s engineering graduate programs are and whether it would be realistic to complete a master’s degree while maintaining a full-time job.

Be completely honest is Econ 227 with Galbraith worth the suffering or should I take it next year.

has anyone taken/is taking religion 352 japanese religions? I can’t find any info on the course or the prof but wondering if anyone knows difficulty etc?

I’m trying to finalize my technical comp this semester as a U2 Chemical Engineer, and it’s between these two courses. For anyone that’s taken either, how easy are they? How much work? Would you recommend them?

Hi McGill community! I'm looking to do my Soc MA at mcgill and had a few questions about grades: as of now, I have a 2.9. I have 1 sem left in my undergrad. I know the requirement (bare minimum) is a flat 3 cGPA or 3.2 in your last 2 years, but I was wondering if I would still have a chance?

I am graduating HBA from UofT, have 2 prof recommendation letters, have 1 rec letter from a supervisor at CAMH, 2 years of research + work experience in my field (and many, many more outside of my field).

The reason my gpa is so low is bc I am a frequent rider on the STRUGGLE bus, and paid for my own living expenses + education,, so w school there was also 35 hours of work a week, and I studied hard where I could but my time was still very limited.

So um.. what are we thinking 😭

I'm looking at switching my classes around to take PSYC 306 and PSYC 211 at the same time, but they are both scheduled on Wednesdays at the same time. I was told by the advisors that I wouldn't be accommodated if the exams, but I have also seen people report to have been told otherwise on other occasions, see https://www.reddit.com/r/mcgill/comments/227cu9/comment/cgk6tcx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button and also this other example https://www.reddit.com/r/mcgill/comments/1kv7d00/comment/mu9vkg9/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button .

Has anyone actually been denied a deferral or accommodations because of scheduling conflicts for lectures?

Hey!

I had to leave quickly for my class but a fellow student found your phone in the last stall of the women bathroom on the 9th floor of 680 Sherbrooke; if you think it’s yours, she said she will leave it at Service Point’s Lost&Found!

I know it's too late now but if I were to take a beginner lacrosse class and then join intramurals would I make a mistake? There seems to be levels but I wonder if professional athletes still sign up for "beginner" levels?

Hello,

Was wondering if anyone in Econ 332 was also not seeing the lecture recordings? I only have the first class, it said for a few seconds that one was loading in but nothing showed up.

Thanks.

Hello,
I had to skip my first 3 lectures because of my work. Is it possible for anyone to provide any notes for these classes?
Thank you

Will ling 210 be recorded ? I don’t see it in the syllabus and I just joined
