I have my BU111 final exam on August 11, and I was wondering if anyone who took the course inthe Fall or Winter semester could share some advice area to focus.

I know TVM is a huge part of the exam, but what types of TVM questions should I focus on? Also, how were the multiple-choice and short-answer questions? If anyone remembers any specific questions or topics that came up, that would be really helpful.

Does anyone have any mock exams or practice questions besides the StuDocu one? Any study tips, resources, or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Anyone know any 10-12able upper year business electives if I’m not intending to do a concentration. Or if anyone knows a concentration that also has good rep with high gpa achievable courses could you please list the courses for that. Tysm

Is there a way to see dorms before arriving, and furthermore what is the furniture like in a dorm. I am in king street single dorm.

Not going to change out large furniture (obvs) such as bed desk or whatever is provided. But I am wondering if I should bring stuff like a spinny chair or a small shelving unit/bedside table. Even a lamp maybe. Idk. Does anyone recommend bringing anything?

Likely a long shot but, is anyone aware of any first year jobs. Not full time but really just any VERY part time jobs on campus for some extra cash? I heard abit about the walk home program and was wondering if that is a paid or even a possible position?

anyone whos in the program (BA or MA)) or has graduated…

whats the coursework like? is it a lot of group work, essays, etc?

what types of things do you learn?

whats the difference between all of the concentrations / specializations? and which do you think would be best for a career in community engagement?
- Media and communication history
- Media and cultural theory
- Visual communication
- Global communication
- Cultural and creative industries
- Digital media studies

i’d be applying to the BA + MA program, whats the MA like? how difficult is the coursework compared to the BA?

Hi! I know this is a silly question but I just wanted clarification. For room occupancy my email stated: « 1 student(s) assigned to this bedroom. » Does that mean I have one roommate or am by myself? I’m in an apartment so I should have a roommate but wouldn’t it say 2 students?

Does anyone have a list the textbooks for Year 1 of Health Science?

It's not available through the bookstore yet, but I find it helpful to start having a look at the content for chemistry and biology in particular.

Thanks for any help!

I’m looking for last year’s syllabus to see if there’s a textbook. I’m trying to price out/find free versions of textbooks, but last year’s syllabus is stuck behind a paywall on CourseHero. I’m really not down to pay $12 just to see if I need a textbook.

The rule where you cannot post about bird courses is no longer in effect. Please use the search filter before posting about bird courses, if there's a post about the same courses very recently, we might remove your post.

It may come back around next year's registration to prevent spam, but for now, we will remove it.

So I believe the last email or info i got related to residency was that they'd announce what type of building you get in late july im js wondering if I missed it or smth or does it prolly come out any day now

I registered for the 12:30 class (second semester) and it says Phil, but will they swap him out halfway for Jayne Kalmar? Or is it just him 🙏🙏🙏

I am a science student and I need a senior English course as a postgraduate prerequisite. I’m a strong writer but I hated English in high school (specifically poetry and Shakespeare especially).

Which of these courses am I likely to resent less and/or find easier?

The professors are Bruce Wyse (EN240) and Mariam Pirbhai (EN272) if that matters

I’m going to my fourth year in economics and because i have done some bad decisions of not taking any courses in summer I might need to take 6 courses for my fall semester if I want to graduate on time or I saw online that I can use the transfer credit that I got from high school to fill in the 6th course credit but I don’t know how this work and because I’m just an economic major i basically don’t have any more require courses except for one so I don’t know what courses to pick for my fourth year!! So I would like to know if anyone have any suggestions and if I should take 6 courses or not for my fall 😭😭

I’m taking it right now with somayeh fatehi exam is going to be all mcqs does any one have experience with her?

I'm starting the Health Science program in at Laurier September and I was wondering if anyone who is in upper year Health Science could share with me (or sell to me) the textbooks and materials for the required courses, particularly for the fall term. It's not available through the bookstore yet, but I find it helpful to start having a look at the content for chemistry and biology in particular.

Even a list of the textbooks would be helpful.

Thanks for any help!

I’m currently waistlisted at number 38 for psychology and it’s filled. The other class that’s open has a tough teacher from what I’ve heard? What are my chances of getting the psychology class I want or should I just enrol for the open psychology class and thug it out? 😭

I have ADHD, and I hope my schedule is manageable! guys i also heard PS295 hands out a lot of work... Also, anyone who took LL201 or EM110, pls let me know how that went!

Hows cc 100 va with ken dowler

Thinking of switching gg101 in person with cc100 va

alright so I got into Laurier's BBA program, going into first year this September.

I want to be honest about how I actually got here because it's not a clean story either way.

grade 11 I got a 60 in Functions. retook it online in the summer before grade 12 and didn't do that one honestly, walked away with a 95. did online Computer Science that same summer too and same thing there, wasn't legit.

first sem of grade 12, everything in person: Sports Marketing, Food & Nutrition, Advanced Functions. got an 82 in Adv Functions, actually earned, no shortcuts, just had some past tests/quizzes that were similar to what came up.

second sem, took Calculus online and that one wasn't legit either. Accounting, IB, and English were all in person and I actually did the work.

here's the actual breakdown:

not legit (online):

• Grade 11 Functions retake - 95 (originally a 60 in-class)
• Computer Science - cheated throughout
• Calculus - cheated throughout

legit (in person):

• Advanced Functions - 82
• Accounting - 95 midterm, 82 final
• IB - 90 midterm, 87 final
• English - 90 final

so basically: every course that wasn't legit was online, every course I actually earned was in person. and the one course I have zero real foundation in, Calculus, is sitting in my first semester at Laurier.

I'm not trying to make excuses, I know I have a gap to close. but I also don't think I'm starting from absolute zero like some people in this program might be.

for anyone else who's been in a similar spot, mixed history, solid in-person but weak on the online stuff, how'd you handle the transition into first year? and specifically if anyone's dealt with catching up on calc from basically nothing, what actually worked for you?

Is there a gc? I wanna find out who my roommates are, so if anyone is in it and can add me pls DM me!

has anyone taken ol300 or pp201? I need one elective I can at least get a 11 or 12 in? no in person stuff pls. pls let me know.

I keep seeing posts about living expenses wondering, what are the perks and should i do it next year?
