Ok… To all of you out there trying to figure out how in the hell to put your schedule together, remember this, and this is KEY (It WILL be on the final exam, you forget and you WILL be considered the weakest link, and you WILL receive NO sympathy from me if you have read this).<\/p>\n
ONLY TAKE 5 COURSES PER TERM!<\/p>\n
This seems like a simple enough task, but don’t let this statement’s lack of words and simplicity fool you! No… it is essential that you understand this point thoroughly or your world will come crumbling down.<\/p>\n
You see.. I aimed for the typical, and needed, 30 credits BUT because of my options for courses, and availability, I ended up with 6 courses in one term and 4 in the other. Hmm.. ok i said… then i will have the 30 credits i need.<\/p>\n
WRONG! This was a big mistake.<\/p>\n
6<\/strong> midterms in one week is too much!<\/p>\n Not to mention 6<\/strong> finals in one week come December!<\/p>\n You will have no<\/em> life, and be living off of:<\/p>\n Coffee, Redbull and Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n You Dont<\/em> Want This!<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n My schedule this week: 2 papers, 5 midterms (3 of which are worth more than 20%!) , and a partridge in a pear treeee! Now, because it is essential that you keep up on your readings while at University to make sure you are at the top of your game (thats a good thing right!?), it is virtually impossible to study thoroughly for a new midterm in one night AND keep up with your homework (Thats right.. you still have homework to think about?!… forgot about that didn’t ya?)<\/p>\n But seriouslt. Thats it<\/em>.<\/p>\n Thats all there is.<\/p>\n You do this and you will succeed.<\/p>\n The world is your oyster if only you:<\/p>\n DO NOT TAKE 6 COURSES!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ok… To all of you out there trying to figure out how in the hell to put your schedule together, remember this, and this is KEY (It WILL be on the final exam, you forget and you WILL be considered the weakest link, and you WILL receive NO sympathy from me if you have read […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":55,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[62],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-academic"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/55"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/thefirst\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
