edited August 2008 in General
I just read the course outline,in "grading" it says-Participation 10%
Earthquake - What would you do? 15%........there is no tutorial,so does anyone know what does it mean?

    I took it with Glynn-Williams last fall and almost half the class failed the mt = =
    but course content is pretty interesting and it definitely relates to Vancouver especially with topics such as Earthquakes.

    Instant fail class.

    The price of that coures' textbook alone is a major turnoff, but damn that course was an instant fail course? Thank god I dropped it for something else...

    good thing Williams allowed us to shift our marks to the final if we did bad on the mt.
    like he would take the higher of the two.
    so my final ended up being worth 100% since there was no way I would get the same mark as the mt~
    so ended up with a B-.. coulda been better but yeah.
    what can you expect in that class?

    Good Luck then!
    but I bet the exams are gonna be similar stuff.
    plus, there's no tutorials for this class so its really no different from a distance ed class.
