yconic is the place where you can give and get the help you need for your life as a student. To help keep our community an enjoyable, helpful and safe place for all members, please adhere to the following guidelines.
1. Be nice to people. It's okay to provide constructive criticism, but there is no need to insult other members. For example, "X major is over-saturated right now. You might have trouble finding a job" is fine. "Your major is dumb. Have fun working in fast food," is not helpful nor appropriate.
2. Ask actual questions. If you're looking for help with something, titling a thread "HELP, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO" isn't going to appeal to the members that may be best suited to help you. Be specific and title your post with relevant information.
3. Don't abuse the anonymous feature by pretending to be multiple people. Surprise, surprise, we know who posts what :)
4. Please only tag relevant interests when you create a new thread. Adding unrelated interests is unlikely to get you the help you're looking for and can frustrate other members.
5. Avoid spamming. This includes replying to your own thread for the sole purpose of moving it up the discussion feed.
6. Don't expose other people's personal information. If someone is posting anonymously, please respect their privacy.
7. If you see something you don't like, click the 'Report' button in the post menu and a moderator will review it. Please avoid commenting on inappropriate posts as this only encourages them.
8. Did a post help you? Click the "Was this post helpful?" button to help us recognize our most helpful members and so that other people will know the response was...you guessed it, helpful!

I'm really confused. At ryerson's site, they have a neat outline for the program, like what courses are to be taken for each year. At U of T, I believe first yr undergrad students have to be a... something like a general course student before actually entering the program. How does this work? atleast, for Computer Science.
:scratch: :compress:
thanks and i've seen that page. Im talking about the pre program year in which they make you take elective courses before actually entering the program...
The whole idea is that University of Toronto gives you the flexibility to explore other courses, and declare your major during second year. That way, it's really easy, if you decide you don't like the program of interest you applied into, then you can switch :) That's why there are certain "breadth" requirements you must complete for your program as well. But it does make a difference what you actually apply into, because it determines what courses you get first pick on xD.
@jmicaela wrote I know ^_^ but how does this yr work? How many courses am i taking for this yr? For anyone whove taken this yr, how was it?:albino:
Haha I wrote this for another post, but I'll rewrite it here :)
I'm going into Computer Science at UofT St George, here is a list of the mandatory courses for first year. This is right off of the UofT site, and off of the many presentations I've been to about UofT CS (I do alot of research >.<)
First year (2.5 FCEs):
1. (CSC108H1, CSC148H1)/CSC150H1, CSC165H1/CSC240H1; (MAT135H1, MAT136H1)/MAT137Y1/MAT157Y1
If you have 0 experience in programming, you're going to want to take CSC108H1 (Intro to Programming), and then CSC148H1 (Advanced Programming). Don't worry, the Advanced one is a term after the Intro one, they're not together.
CSC165H1 -> Mathematical Expression and Reasoning for Computer Science
The MAT courses are just Calculus courses.
You'll have academic advising sessions, where a counselor will help you determine which course is appropriate for your skill level and what yo want to do.
You'll have 2.5 mandatory credits to take, and then you have 2.5 credits free for electives in first year.
Hope this helped! :)
Here's the website that has all require courses for CompSci if you don't trust me :)
