We wouldn't have survived if this had been a real fire. Please be aware of the fire exits and evacuation routes.

how did we feel about that one…

It is genuinely insane to me that the libraries open at 8, and even then only meclennan. By 8 many people have already been awake for hours… 8 is a normal time to have breakfast meetings and calls in the business world. I feel like 6am is the BARE MINIMUM and even then we deserve 24 hours during midterms like bruh

Hi,

As the title suggests I wanted to ask if anyone had experience using Maple Telehealth for getting a doctors note to defer a midterm. I got home from my midterm today and started feeling cold and soon developed a fever to 38.6C. I ate meds but I still feel cold, dizzy and nauseous after a few hours.

I initially wanted to get a wellness hub appointment tmr morning but with scrolling I found the Telehealth thing and gave it a try. I currently have a doctor's note just stating I have been "medically assessed during a video consultation and is unable to attend school due to a medical condition".

The process was so fast it seemed really unreliable and thus I wanted to ask if anyone had experience using doctor's notes from them for midterm deferral(fyi I am in sciences). As the syllabus states the conditions for deferral being quite serious ones like severely ill etc, I worry that they won't accept it and I might miss my exam.

Thanks inadvance and good luck with exams, pls stay healthy :/

What happens if you write a midterm exam but in the wrong room? Even if it’s the same course and same timing

disclaimer, i'm not canadian but i met someone in mtl who told me they went to mcgill to study film and when i said mcgill is a very competitive school they said film is not a competitve program and most can get in. is that how it works? bc i looked it up and it says no such thing exists, i'm confused.

Hi! I was wondering if anybody has any advice on how I could get occupational therapy shadowing hours in the Montreal area? I have some private hours, however I need more and I’m also trying to get hours at a public clinic.

Thank you so much!

I am a u0 general arts student, and the grades I have been receiving on written assignments are not bad but definitely not great (usually around 80%). In high school I my average was a 95 and I was often told I was very good at writing and good in my humanities classes. I feel like all the feedback I get is usually positive yet somehow the overall grade I get ends up being lower than I’d expect given the feedback, for example having one critique or one note of constructive feedback, I just genuinely am at a loss of what professors in history and English and film analysis type courses expect. Maybe I’m just not used to university grading and maybe I’m way out of my league (I went to a public arts highschool), but I’m hoping to go to grad school and this is super discouraging, does it get better? What types of things can I check for or try to do :/

Guys how do you think about Comp202 this term? Because I honestly think it is insane.

The Midterm 1 class average is 59%, with the lowest score being 15%. On top of that, we were required to handwrite docstrings during an exam?
The exam content itself is insane too. For an introductory course that was teaching ⁠’Hello World⁠’ just a month ago, the short answer questions felt impossible unless you already had tons of prior coding experience.

I took COMP 202 in Winter 2026 (The instructor I think is Giulia). The assignments back then were nowhere near this absurd—we even had bonus points available, no docstrings required and I am 100% sure the midterm was way easier than this term’s

The grading on assignments this term is just WTF:
On A1 I lost 10 full points just for using ‘is not’ instead of !=
On A2 I lost another 10 points because my docstring "formatting" wasn't deemed specific enough.

Does anyone else feel the same way?
WTF is going on this term?

I'm not from Quebec and idk how union stuff works here. Where I grew up, profs going on strike would be a huge deal. If Arts profs strike what actually happens to midterms, essays, and finals?? Do TA's run conferences or are they cancelled too? Do deadlines just move or could we lose the term/have to write finals in January?

does anyone know what the format will be like? it’s with Ling Ling Zhang! Thanks

Bro who else failed that shi😭im acc gonna kms got a 40

How did you all find todays comp 558 midterm?

i haven't been able to go to a lot of indg200 classes this semester due to time conflicts and personal reasons. however when i did go to class the prof didn't take attendance, but on mycourses it mentions a few times how missing class will harm your grade. i was wondering if anyone knew how she's been taking attendance so far and for how many classes/lectures? thanks

what did everyone think about the exam??

title is self explanatory hmu if ur interested

anyone knows how the midterm for this class is? i know the questions are fair, but is it also the same for the readings? do they ask specific things from the readings or general idea mostly?

Hey everyone,
I have my MATH 140 midterm coming up on October 29th, and I was wondering if anyone who has taken the course before has any past midterms, practice exams, or useful resources they could share.
I’ve done calculus before, so I’m familiar with most of the material, but I’ve heard mixed things about the difficulty of the exams, especially with sid.
I’d also really appreciate any advice on what to focus on, how difficult the actual midterm is compared to the tutorials and assignments, and the best way to prepare.
Thanks in advance!

Hi!! I can't find unblurred syllabi of these two courses so can someone who took them recently (last 3-4 years ish) tell me if they have midterms and whether those exams would occur in or out of class? Thanks!

New to the program. Honest question: how do you keep up with all the modules and readings for all the classes on My Courses? 🥲

Ngl I lost hope and I didn't even stop during reading week.

Hi!! I really want a group of people with whom I can practice speaking French! I'm officially level B2 but would love to get like a weekly thing going so that we can all improve our French!! Maybe like weekly walks up Mont-Royal? Please respond to this if there is interest!

currently doing my undergrad in the UK and thinking of applying for a masters at mcgill. really open to learning french and wanted to find out as a non - french speaker how long it took you to become comfortable with the language with living in montral

It’s been a strobe light for the last month and a half honestly it cannot be that hard to fix. Or just turn it off.

There was a cat with a collar running around Maass building - around 7. It was going super fast, no chance of catching it. Just in case someone is looking for your cat, it’s around there.
