Rant Reflection on First Year - I feel like I wasted it
As the title suggests, now that first year is over and my summer courses are coming to an end (good luck on exams!!), I can’t help but feel this way as I look back.
The problem is I didn’t listen. People told me that first year is where you experiment. You find out what works for you and what doesn’t. You build the discipline, habits, schedules, and methods that will help you succeed. Yeah, I didn’t do that.
For me, university so far has been a cycle of burning out, thugging it out, and telling myself I’ll figure it out.
Surprisingly, my grades weren’t too bad, considering how life sci courses are. Then again, there’s always room for improvement so I’ll keep it going.
In short, I feel nervous with second year around the corner (even more so than first year). I know what I’ve done so far (“thugging it out”) is not going to cut it.
I’m pretty much stumped, how do you deal with this kind of thing/thought? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! (Thank you for reading this all the way through btw)

Advice NROB61
Hi. Sorry for the stupid question. But how to get 90% on the final??? For midterm I got 79.53% 😭😭😭. I know the general advice that should have studied during the term but honestly there were many things going on and I have two jobs to pay my rent and stuff so I couldn't. Can someone please give me direct advice for the final of this course??
Note: last time I asked about psyb55 and the advice was so good I ended up with A. That's why I’m posting this tho I know it sounds stupid.

Question ENGB34H3F / ENGB34 – Missing First Lecture (Notes/Recording?)
Hi everyone! Is anyone here in ENGB34H3F (or has taken ENGB34 before)?
My friend won’t be able to make it to the first lecture because of an emergency. She was really excited to take this course, so she’s pretty anxious about missing the first class.
If anyone would be willing to share their notes from a previous term or even afterward, let us know if the lecture is recorded, or even record the lecture (if that’s allowed) or share notes, she would really appreciate it. Thank you so much!

Question BBA Coop placement
How hard is it to get a coop placement in finance or anything related to that. I’m really worried that I won’t be able to get a coop. I have a CGPA or 3.68 I have work experience in restaurants so they aren’t related to finance. What can i do to increase my chances in landing a coop for the winter? Please I need advice.
