Yeah. It's boring as hell...The slides took me forever to get through. Like you, I'm relying on my midterm mark...and the assignment marks. I just wanna get it over with.

And btw, in one of the classes he said he'd ask a question about the Permian Mass Extinction on the final...I'm guessing it'll be one of the long answer q's.

^ what's this course? sounds interesting as hell as crunching numbers.
is it some history course?

^ Earth Science 106 with Dirk Kriste

those long answer questions were killer...

preparing for my 336 exam in surrey now, ugh.

yeah, my hands were so tired after writing four. i had a jammed thumb too...so the whole damn process was painful. i'm just glad its over with. one more to go!!!!!!!

Was it A. Macdonald? I can't believe there wasn't a full cash flow. That is BS cuz cash flow is the easiest.

^ya i had it with A. Macdonald.... how did you think of it? i thought it was pretty retarded how 90% of the test was written theory shit while there was 1 stupid income statement and only the operational part of the cash flow........... btw, did you get a lot of "none of the above" for the M/C? I had a lot of D's...

Yeah I got a lot of D's. First two questions I got D, then third I got A. But It depends what color paper you got too. At least there was an easy AFDA/Bad-Debt-Expense question.

Test had teh most randomest shit ever

oh yo.. must've missed your message.. what did you think of the 336?

after half a day of R&R, now I am back at sfu in the chem lounge :lol

still can't find any luck with the parking passes guys :( How the heck do I apply to the lottery if the link brings me to the closed spring entry?

If anything, I guess i'll have to wait till monday to ask the office :(

^what the hell is R&R, rock and republic? lulz.

It wasn't too bad. If I had an extra day I probably could've aced it... fuckin earth science. It seemed pretty fair though, I could see how someone would be able to get 100% if they studied.

rest and relaxation =b

best bet is to talk to the security office... today when I walked by it said g-lot open sales is really soon.. like.. in a day or so.

I found the decision tree hard, out of all those, they have to give us a messed up one. Fucking exercises lol.

But yeah, prof was pretty cool though, did you have time to drop into one of the office hours?

nah i never went to any of the office hours or open labs. i think they still have my assignment 3 haha

HEYEOOOO.
My friend recieved a gpa of 1.9 and his cgpa is still below 2.0.
He told me he isn't stressed about this fact, because he won't get kicked out of school.He explained to me that if you take less than 9 units per semester, his gpa and cgpa won't matter? WHAAAAAAAAAAAT? Anyone wanna shed some light on this? :S This seems false to me.

SFU BTW.

I always thought even if its 3 units, it all counts towards your academic standings. Watch your friend get put on AP :lol

^ That, would make my year.
HAHAHA, I hope not though! lmao

Well, he kinda does have a point though. I mean, say you take ONE class. What if you fuck up in the class? Your gpa for that semester alone will be dependent of that one class. Will they kick you out of the school solely because of this? :S

well, I think if you have fine standings beforehand, the most you could get is AP. However, if it affects both, THEN you'd get academic suspension.

Say, if you had a 2.33cgpa before, you take one course and you get like a 1.66 gpa, it shouldn't pull your cgpa down below a 2.00 if you had more credits. Yes, it could affect your cgpa by a bit, but with just 3 credits or whatnot, it shouldn't have a MAJOR effect unless you have 9 credits to begin with.

I know for Langara, that was how it worked. I took 2 courses one semester, I got a C and a F. My GPA was below a 2.0 so I was placed on AP. However, because my cgpa didn't fall below 2.0, I was not on suspension.

This is also why they [Langara] implemented a new rule that states withdrawals don't count towards AP :lol ... I wish they had that rule when I was there, I wouldn't have so many AP's on my record!

if either your term GPA or your cumulative GPA is <2.00, then you're on AP.
if you bring both back up, you're off.
or msth like that it hink.....

my understanding is ... if you get either one of them, you're on AP. If you get both, you get AS/booted. If the semester after, your grades don't permit you to get off AP (bring both gpa AND cgpa over 2.00), you get AS/booted.
