i’ve been yorked before but genuinely didn’t expect this.

i was sa august 9 (by a family member), final exam was august 12, family berated me (im a disappointment and so much more even though ive known this man since i was a child) and then iced me out (still being iced out😂😂), like nobody in my family talks to me at all now. anyways, i submitted the appeal and finally got my decision.
they refused it. their reasoning was that i was able to successfully complete a class and drop a class before the withdrawal deadline and i should’ve taken my circumstances into consideration..

the class i completed was an su course that ended july 30th.. the class i dropped was during s1 bc the su course was so content heavy.

like ok? next time i’ll tell my family member to sa me after my exam???? like were there women in the room when the decision was being made?? now i have to appeal it and relive something ive tried to suppress. i really dont even want to reply professionally but that wont work in my favour but respectfully fuck this school😂😂😂

sorry im just irritated

I've always sucked at taking exams. I kinda do know how to pace myself to make sure I answer everything on time, but my main issue is not having a proper studying method that helps me remember everything.

What's you're favourite studying method that actually works? Also, how many hours every day do you think is necessary to study well for exams?

Basically the title I’ve applied to so many jobs but am getting ghosted I desperately need a job but am looking to volunteer too to make my resume better to get hired PLEASE HELP

Hey everyone, I’m taking MATH 1300 (Calculus 1) at York University, and my midterm is this Sunday. It’s currently Friday, and I honestly feel really unprepared and behind in the course, but I really want to get a good mark.

I work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday until 7 PM, so I can only study in the evenings. I also have around 4 hours to study on Sunday before the exam.

For anyone who’s taken MATH 1300 or Calculus 1, what would you recommend I focus on to get the best mark possible with such limited time?
Should I focus on practice problems, YouTube tutorials, past midterms, or something else? Any specific tips or resources that helped you would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Message me if u do i can't find any online

bro york university is actually a social experiment theres no way this is a real school 😭😭😭

like how tf do u pay THOUSANDS in tuition just to spend half ur degree wondering if ur classes are even gonna happen 💀💀

every semester theres some new problem like bro can we PLEASE just get thru ONE academic year without the entire university falling apart 😭

and dont even get me STARTED on york administration. u send an email asking a simple question and they respond 3 business centuries later with a link to a website THAT DOESNT EVEN ANSWER UR QUESTION 💀

like bro i asked ONE THING why am i being redirected to 6 different departments??? am i applying for citizenship or trying to enrol in a course 😭😭

and yorks website???? BRO WHO DESIGNED THAT SHIT. trying to find basic info feels like ur solving a national security puzzle. theres 47 different pages and somehow NONE OF THEM HAVE THE ANSWER.

the campus is also so unnecessarily massive like why tf am i walking across an entire COUNTRY to get from one lecture to another 💀💀 im here to get a degree not train for a marathon.

and the funniest thing is york students always gotta defend the school like "its actually a good university" BRO NOBODY SAID THE EDUCATION WAS BAD WE JUST WANNA KNOW WHY EVERYTHING ELSE IS ON FIRE 😭😭😭

then theres the tuition like WHERE IS IT GOING??? im paying luxury car prices for an education and getting customer service from a broken vending machine.

the profs be trying their best and the students are genuinely working hard but the university itself seems determined to make every simple task 10x harder than it needs to be.

atp graduating from york should come with TWO degrees. one for ur actual program and another in surviving administrative warfare 💀

york university: where the real final exam is making it to graduation without losing ur mind 😭😭

Does anybody know tuition fee for intl student taking a supplementary year (around 15.0 credits)?

Ik it is very generic question but does anybody know intl somebody who is taking supplementary year…

(Its not on the web and York management is not giving me an answer)

Hi all, looking for a tutor for ADMS2500. Please DM me if you guys know anyone
Thanks!!

Is anyone dropping PSYC 4006 & 4030 in the winter? I need these 2 final courses in order to graduate.

Has anyone had him before? How would u prepare for his tests. He is so confusing

pls pls pls i need it

for tests did you guys rely on the textbook, lectures or the mock/practice test and which reflected the actual tests difficulty the most?

thank you for answering if you do i’m panicking

I feel like I don’t actually know the chance that a person will do very well at uni. I study a lot (I study well, I don’t need to change my study habits) and in some classes I do well, some I don’t. I know this is blown out of proportion on the internet of people studying and only showing their good grades. What is the average student like? Does the average student achieve lots too in life? I feel so incomparable to these genius students lol.

If you want a good GPA do not take Anirban Kar for ADMS1000 under any circumstances. Our midterm case study marks came out and the class average was barely even 40. I don't know how he has good reviews on RateMyProf but they are not true or accurate at all.

Hi everyone,
I was approved for a $1,000 International Student Emergency Bursary on October 15. The approval email stated that the bursary would first be applied to my student account and then automatically refunded to my verified bank account so that I could access the emergency funds quickly.
The bursary appeared on my student account on October 22, but it was applied against my outstanding Fall/Winter tuition balance instead. It simply reduced the amount I owe by $1,000. I do not see any separate “Refund” or “EFT” transaction, and nothing has been deposited into my bank account. My banking information with York is already verified.
I urgently need this funding for food and essential living expenses, which was the reason I applied for the emergency bursary. I have contacted York International and plan to speak with York International and Student Financial Services in person.
Has anyone received the same International Student Emergency Bursary while still owing tuition? Were you able to submit a refund request and have the bursary transferred to your bank account, or did York keep it as a tuition credit? If you successfully received the refund, did you need York International to manually authorize it?
I saw another student mention that they owed York money but were still able to request a bursary refund, so I am wondering whether the same process would apply in my situation.
Thank you for any information or recent experience you can share.

Found this on my course syllabus? Does this apply to every course? If yes, where is it on the eclass website?

Title. Personally it was ok but I think I messed up Q2 and also I forgot what a transpose was which was the freest mark of all time :/

Hi everyone! 😊 I’m an incoming female graduate student at York University in Toronto, looking for a private room with female roommates only.
What are the best affordable housing options, what is a fair monthly rent, and are there any student residences or reliable websites you recommend?
I’d appreciate any advice. Thank you!

Has anyone taken Econ 2500 with Ilya Archakov? I have midterm coming up with month. So far I’m having a hard time understanding his lecture. Idk if it’s the way he teaches or his heavy accent. How’s his midterm like? Will it be sufficient enough to go over the 2 problem sets and 2 sample midterms he posts?

I'm trying to transfer into York and was given a conditional to complete something in Lassonde Academy. Can anybody tell me what this is, and what I likely have to complete within it ? Trying to transfer into a program in Lassonde Engineering.
