thecleaner Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Im in UofT third year. Did full load the past two years with 3.37 and 3.88. I want the weighting formula but im getting cluster ownage by organic chem and my other courses. Currently taking: CHM247 MGY377 IMM334 CSB349 AST210 Next sem: CSB332 MGY378 CLA201 IMM334 (continue) HMB300 Im thinking of dropping orgo chem cuz i dont have time to study it while midterm is on Thurs. But that means i will have to take 6 courses for my second semester in order for the weighting formula. What do guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryptic.living Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Speaking from my own experience, if you have a Dr. Andy **** and a good TA for CHM247, don't drop it. It's a great (but time consuming) course and it gets much easier to learn if you're fairly good at memorizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayward son Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I know nothing about your course, but... you may be able to pick up a course at Athabasca and hit it hard over the Xmas holidays. If you choose to do that enroll very soon as I think it takes about a month and half to get started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shikimate Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 You can use CR/NCR for one of your courses in 2nd semester if it doesn't count towards POST, that could help you. That way you may survive with 6 courses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repede Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Based on your course selection, CHM247 likely does count toward your POSt, so CR/NCR probably isn't a choice for you. What is your POSt, anyway? If it's owning you now, while you have 5 courses, I don't forsee it being any better when you have 6 courses. I took it while I had 6 courses and ALL my courses suffered. So out of those two options, keeping it sounds better. Above poster is right, Dr. Dîcks is amazing. But it really is a brutal course, one that can't be taken lightly. Do your best on the midterm this Thursday and get caught up for the next one and final. Since there's a lab component, that will also help dilute a bad midterm. And, if you do qualify for weighting, CHM247 will be droppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
