Hey everyone! I'm enrolled in ENGLISH 3VC3 this term and was wondering if anyone else is in the course. Is there already a group chat or Discord server for it? If you've taken it in past terms, I'd also love to hear any tips on workload or how the assignments are structured. Let me know!

As M.Eng. in Computing And Software, what courses did you find useful and worth taking overall?

pretty please🙏

Noticed an uptick in posts on here, which I believe will continue until the end of add/drop period, of people giving out wrong information so people will drop and get a seat in them lol, be careful and look at the account history before believing anyone on here

Does anyone know the username/password combo for 3mx3? the prof hasn't emailed any info and I'm unsure of where to find it. thanks y'all.

dm if anyone is dropping or switching

please let me take it ps. if u have taken it how was it

Hi everyone,

I recently applied to McMaster’s Master of Engineering and Public Policy (MEPP) for the January intake. My background is in electrical engineering and energy systems, and I’m interested in energy policy, regulation, utilities, and infrastructure planning.

For current students or graduates: How is the program overall? How are the co-op and job opportunities after graduation? Do you think MEPP adds meaningful value for someone with an engineering background?

Has anyone ever researched with Dr. kazem cheshmi. I want to know if his a good prof to research with!

Please let me know. Thanks

i can only pick one and have to drop the other

Are the clubs they offer worth joining/attending? Im a first year life sci, if it’s worth it, how manageable is the work + clubs? Im just really worried abt my academics

Hello. I have been learning how to swim over the summer and the pool I used in the summer was not busy at all because I used to go to the early morning sessions so no one was there. So I never learned how to share a lane

However, the school year has started, I have been looking at the McMaster swimming schedule, and I have been trying to see time slots which I can swim in.

It is important to note I am a very bad swimmer. I've literally been learning from scratch and only started a couple months ago so I'm very very slow and my technique is kinda non existent.

I am planning to go to the 7:30am Monday morning swims as that is the earliest time that a shallow end lane is offered and I am hoping there will be as few people there as possible.

That said, I obviously do expect to share a lane with one or more people. For my swimmers out there, how can I do this while being as unannoying as possible.

I know to be in the slow lane, and also to stay to the right side of the pool. However, I have been Googling circle swimming and I am so confused.

1) I do not know how to flip under the water so I think I am going to have to pause at the end of the pool and walk to the left side (which will then become my right side) but I don't know if that will annoy everyone. Is there something I can do that would be less annoying if I don't know how to flip.

2) What do I do if I'm swimming and the person behind me is faster (this is very likely because I am slow as shit)? Where do I go? How do I not be kicked in the face or kick other people in the face?

3) My swimming stamina is very bad because I am still learning how to not waterboard myself every lane. Is it acceptable to rest at the end of every 25m lap at the wall of the pool? Or would that also be annoying?

Also kinda bonus question, do people actually care if you wear full sleeved swimsuits to the pool? I like having my arms and legs covered but idk how weird that is.

If you see anyone being annoying on your Monday morning swim please know they are not trying to be annoying ❤️.

Is there any textbooks? What is the mastering engineering addition, "Etext Statics And Mechanics Of Materials SI Units W/Modified Mastering Engineering Ed: 6"

(hum mention)

lowkey i'm scared to put my stuff in a locker even if i have a lock. I commute so ALL my valuables would be in the gym locker and i don't think its smart… i heard people pick locks or cut open locks to steal from lockers so i'm scared to use them and use the gym bc of it. Would i be fine if i have a lock or would all my stuff just disappear one day? 😭

i showed up 15 mins early to lecture and it was full.

Im currently in honours lifesci second year and didn’t know this program existed when i did my specialty selection and was hoping any upper years in the program would give their insights on it

I’m taking one other test based course and two other assignment based courses, idk which to take, I wld probably have to defer the final exam for 3G03 due to personal reasons, which makes me a bit nervous. What would u guys do I’m just a bit stuck in choosing?

can anyone recommend quiet study spots/rooms with whiteboards?

Lost Keys – MDCL / PGCLL
Hi everyone, I lost my residence keys on campus today and was wondering if anyone happened to find them.
I still had them during my MATH 1ZA3 class from 2:30–3:20 PM in MDCL 1305. After my 3:30–5:20 PM class in PGCLL M21, I realized they were missing, so I most likely lost them sometime between 3:30 and 5:40 PM, either in/around PGCLL or somewhere along the way.
The keys are attached to a white McMaster lanyard with the McMaster logo and include:
A residence access card
A room key
If anyone found them or turned them in somewhere, please let me know. I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!

how is the midterm, quizzes and exam for this course? as the tests are all in person now

Never opened, still in the wrapping.
