Same boat...

Does anyone know if I don't do a final and get a N, will it still affect my gpa? Because I'm planning to retake the course anyway.

Pretty sure you get an N, and once the following term starts it's converted to an F. So yes, it will have a huge impact on your GPA (if I remembered correctly, that is).

When is you guy's 254 final? How many courses are you taking this summer? My final 254 exam was fairly easy, don't give up, you guys can still do good on it.

My 254 final is next Monday. I also haven't touched it at all after the midterm...and there's indeed tons of materials to go through.

Dude that's a week away.. plenty of time. Even if you think you'd fail, I'd go anyways just to see what kind of questions they put on there.

And even if bad comes to worse at least you'll do your classmates a favour by dropping the average.

always check to see if the class you enrolling in has a bell curve system. that gives you at least some fighting chance

Just left SFU BBY... been here since like 11 am.. fuuu

Who here has an RS sticker on their asus laptop?

I have an RS sticker on my HP laptop :alone:

hey guys does anyone know when they will give out the agendas?

^^ go pick em up from the student society office or whatever, they just lie there on a table in Maggie Benson center. Usually there first week of september (first week of classes).

oh god i only have rem 100 and communications 110 right now..I need atleast one more course.. does anyone have any suggestions?

SPAN 102 DE, CRIM 101 with Cartwright, HSCI 160, POL 241 DE, SA 150 with Travers, PSYC 100.

All very easy classes I found. Except I have my PSYC final in six hours, and I probably won't do that well, but that's all on me for not studying hard enough.

when's your tutorial for cmns 110 in fall? :D
EASY A HERE I COME

To All BUECERS, guess who wins best teaching awards:

Krisha Pendakur Announcement

KRISHA PENDAKUR ANNOUNCEMENT

The Department of Economics is pleased to announce that Krishna has been awarded one of the Dean's Medals for Academic Excellence for 2011. His achievement will be publicly recognized at a Reception for the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences scheduled for the afternoon of 22 September. Please book the Sept 22 as Krishna and Dave (Cormack teaching award) will both be recognized at this reception.
Warm congratulations to Krishna.

P.S. Btw, Buec 333 is the only Econ course Pendakur taught in 2011. WTF?

I'm so scared Pendakur will be teaching Buec 333 in the Spring/Summer. How could someone get an award with all these issues (a petition and complaints from students) going on?

Bus 336, 343, 207, and cmns110 anyone?

I'll be in BUS 207, Ruckman's daytime section.

Just had my final for 336 yesterday. What a barrel of monkeys that was. :rofl:

And changed my schedule since last time I posted it. Taking BUS 207, BUS 393, and ENGL 207. Taking it easy this term!

They most likely wont be doing them this year, due to the SFSS lockout.

They usually make them around this time of year, can't do that if you have no employes.

^^ same I'll see you in class

^ i got cmns 110 with you ..my tut time is weds 8:30am =[

Did anyone apply to student loans? When will they give me the funds for the fall semester? This is my first time doing it.

QUESTION:

If you guy's fail an elective, would you retake that elective and clear your old mark, or would you take another elective and leave the F?

Hey guys! I'll be attending SFU as a first year student this Fall. I am very excited to join the SFU RS crew :)

Taking: EVSC 100, BISC 101, MATH 154, CHEM 121

Any advice/comments about buying textbooks? or just textbooks in general?
