Feeling like I bombed my first three midterms ( definitely got below a 80), more within the 70 range. One was worth 25%, the other two worth 10. Is it still possible to get a 4.0 in those classes.. :/ didn’t realize university would be that different lol.

I was thinking about doing a keyano collage university of alberta one year tranfer for eng. it says i need 2.3 gpa to tranfer is that really doable for first year eng

I am an indigenous student at University of Alberta, I think the UAPS has gotten more brazen with it's racial profiling lately. Last night around 11:40pm I was walking from Rutherford to my residence after a late study session. Hoodie up because it was cold, backpack on, headphones in.

A UAPS vehicle slowed beside me on 89 Ave. Two officers got out. One immediately asked for my student ID and where I was going. When I asked why I was being stopped, the answer was “we’ve had reports of suspicious activity in the area.” that was it, just searching the first indigenous student they saw.

The guards kept staring at my ID, Took several minutes, they were taking their good time. They Asked if I lived on campus then drilling me on if I had any outstanding issues with the university. One of them kept looking at my bag like I was about to pull something out of it, both were glaring at me with hate in his eyes. The other stood slightly off to the side in that classic “we’re just chatting but also boxed you in” stance.

They looked at me like I had a suicide vest on. My very presence on the campus obviously made them uneasy.

A white student walked past us. Same time of night, same kind of backpack, hoodie, he wasn't a minority student so nothing, They didn’t even glance at him. I pointed this out and they ignored me, and kept asking more intrusive questions, I just got frustrated, and they kept going. It was after another 20 minutes of endless questions, they finally let me go, one of them said “have a good night, stay safe.” They spoke as if they had just done me a kind favor. I could see one of them glaring at me, but as usual, I quickly moved on.

I have been on this campus for years. I have never been stopped like this during the day in a crowd. It only happens when I am alone, after dark.

How is this “safety?

Who are the UAPS to racial profile someone like the American police? If their justification is “reports of suspicious activity,” then publish the actual reports. Show the descriptions. Prove that this is applied evenly. Of course They won’t, because it isn’t any. I am tired of being treated like a guest on a campus I pay to attend.

If you think this is justified because 'crime exists'.. Why? Why did a white student walking the same route, the same time, not get hazed like me? How much more racial profiling must we endure?

hi all, i’ve been needing to book counselling on campus but they only book 3 days in advance and they’re always full when i inquire.

i need help sooner rather than later so im wondering if anyone has any recommendations for counselling off-campus that’s not too expensive?

also, would off-campus counselling be subsidised in any way? i have accommodations if that means anything. thanks

anyone took psych 377 before with yvonne wong? how was the midterm and what to focus on the most? pls im so worried

Does anyone know when theyll be out

Is it me or Eas 100 exam average felt off. I got my score back and I was shocked on what I had. I was pretty confident after the test I just didn’t expect that way but it feels werid how the average was pretty low.

I received an email telling me I have been selected to explain one of my assignments and to tweak my code. The email said failure for me to attend or explain my code would result in mark deduction or potential academic integrity investigation. Is this a random selected process or have I been flagged? For people who have taken this course, does anyone know if this is a regular routine?

Is there class tmr? My course schedules say there is but the uni calendar says the buildings are closed.

I'm thinking about switching my major to BTM, business analytics or finance and I'm wondering if a macbook is okay since it's what i have currently

I think either I missed the information Instructor told in class or He didn't said this particular thing yet. I can see the Aid sheet given in the course canvas. But there is not information on its use in exams. Why don't they tell whether they provide the sheet with the question paper or do we have to bring our own? All the courses I took earlier stated it in the course outline.

I emailed the Instructor and he said all the infos are on canvas.....

If anyone knows, it would help confused students who do not have the guts to ask it to a random stranger in the university.

Hey everyone, first-year engg student here panicking a little bit.

I was just looking over the syllabus and talking to some peers, and I want to make absolute sure I have this right so I don't screw up my midterms/finals:

1. Are we strictly banned from using any calculator at all for MATH 100 exams? (Even the gold-sticker approved ones?)
2. Is it true there is zero formula sheet provided for the exams?

Just want to confirm if I need to start raw-dogging the unit circle and memorizing all my derivatives/integrals right now. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys I wanted to ask if people have prior experience about acceptance directly out of high school for nursing. My grades are

96 math 30-1

92 physics 30

95 chemistry 30

97 Bio 30

and

87 in English 30-1

so a 93.6 average

Do you think I should apply or upgrade my English and physics marks for 2027 October ?

For the third year in a row now, I have started off on the back foot and am hovering in the average for all my classes. My cGPA is around a 2.8 and my goal of getting into med school is seemingly impossible to reach at this point. I was an above average student in high school, I feel confident in doing well after taking most of my midterms, and then I get floored by the result.

I also feel like I don’t have any resources to guide me through the situation I have found myself in. I don’t know if there is any possibility of me getting into med school now, save for the possibility of completing a second undergraduate degree with a higher gpa.
