in bus 312, you learn how to calculate interest rates and present/future values by hand (step by step). something you will probably never have to do. in 316 and 320, you'll learn how to do everything you did in 312 with a few clicks of your financial calculator.

^ spot on. it's totally irrelevant. don't have to worry about it. in terms of the PV and FV though, some profs such as Jorge does not allow you use a financial calculator.

average for the course was like 35%

Chances are your teacher really doesnt actually give a shit and you can use any calculator you want. I've had several that said non programmable non graphic. I took out my graphing one, asked the TA's they just shrugged, so i used it (i didnt cheat, its just easier for long equations).
But i think that does classify since the only thing you would be able to program would be values which you probably already have memorized.

Generally I use this calculator:
But I always bring the crappy clear calculator from the bookstore just in case the prof/TA is really picky (CHEM 121, 122). I suppose it is programmable, but I don't use those features--it's just the "standard" calculator the bookstore sells is really, really terrible.
On another note, is anyone willing to share good Celebration of Light parking lots? Normally I'd transit but I'm at school until 5:30 pm that day so I'd have to ditch the car at home first then transit out. Pay is fine (within reason), walking 30-60 minutes is fine.
Otherwise, has anyone ever had problems with leaving their car in B-lot late at night?

I've studied at SFU until 230am before and I was parked at the cheap lot lol
If you don't mind watching them on a smaller scale, you could always just head to Jericho/Spanish Banks. From what I've seen, you can usually find spaces in the lots but it just may be further than you'd like so you would most likely have to walk a few lots.
English Bay I don't know the conditions, but for Kits beach you could probably park around the Broadway area (look for residential area since most of Broadway is metered parking)

Anyone know if Econ 342 with David Cox is easy? is it true he only uses the text book? I've taken econ 345 with kasa before and it was fine? are the teaching styles different?

has anyone ever tried getting Bursaries? Is it a difficult and long process to get them, and that even if you apply, you have a strong chance of not receiving any?
in other words, how do they really decide?

Man I don't know if anyone is taking MACM 101.. but we got owned.
Steven Pearce our prof took a unplanned leave of absense. The guy canceled so many classes.. and then finally BOOM one week canceled to find a replacement.
Now we find a replacement on MIDTERM day and it was canceled. So now there is no midterm #2 and the weight is put on the final. Our final is now worth 70%.. and students are okay with it??? u mess that final up and your done!!!
I don't know about this new prof.. but he seems like hes gonna make up a hard ass final.

302's only half full but it's lame how they set it up..
302's tutorials are tu/th 8:30-9:20 and 9:20-10:20, while 305 lectures are tu/th 8:30-10:20, so you can't take both unless you have an early reg date.. fuuuu
edit: nm.. 302 was half full when regged. 29 seats left now.
