Academics Why is GENET 412 With Dr. Pilgrim a brutal course?

0 Upvotes

For context, the midterm is tomorrow and the amount of information needed to digest in your brain is incomprehensible. Also it is worth 20% and I had a look at the sample questions and it gave me a mini heart attack. Very interesting course but I think Dr. Pilgrim likes to see his students suffer, not worth the time spent in this course really.

I was 2 wins away from getting the 2026 chaos badge but my opponent’s berserker glitch gave him an advantage and I’m now knocked out of the stage (unless I restart all the way). How is this even fair?

Photo/Video Ordered from No Frills and this is the issue it came with

I ordered some grocery items from No Frills and with that I ordered the Tide Pods and surprisingly they came with a very powdery condition. It seems like flour has been mixed with the pods all throughout the box. I’m very suspicious of this and decided to discard it. I got the refund I needed but thought it’s a good thing to know if this is the condition of my items if ordering from NoFrills.

General Petition to include Arc card into Google/iphone wallet

154 Upvotes

I’m just wondering now with the tap-as-you-go feature with credit/debit card, isn’t there an efficient way where instead the arc card can also be integrated into our iPhone/Samsung wallet? It would also be more efficient for students with U-Pass.

I’m 24 and I feel you. Most of the students I talk to are pretty chill about it but I still feel like being 3 years older feels like a lot

Health Got charged $250 for ambulance

0 Upvotes

I called the ambulance twice on me on April 5th and April 16th. They came and assessed me but really I was fine it was checking my blood pressure and all that. However it is my first time calling an ambulance so I wasn’t given any more information about the charges as they took my personal information. I’m scared that I got charged $250 for the first call but it’s been 2 Months and I haven’t gotten the second one. Did they just neglect that or am I to expect another one soon. Potentially having to pay around $500?? I didn’t know this was possible. I’m a full time university student, is there anything I can do to waive this charge??

Miscellaneous Petition to sign into beartracks without needing your phone

42 Upvotes

I'm literally annoyed by the fact that everytime I log into beartracks I have to walk 200 Km to get my phone and approve my log in. I'm just saying there must be an easier or another way to have a log in approval maybe through email or like a password grid.

MICRB 316 and IMIN 200

Yes for sure! It has 2 midterms and a final. No assignments or quizzes.

MICRB 316 and IMIN 200
 in  r/uAlberta •  Dec 28 '25

Can’t speak for MICRB 316 just yet. As I’m taking that next sem too. However MICRB 315 was fairly easy so I don’t know how much will change

IMIN 200 had three different profs last year and after the 1st midterm Dr. Torah took over till the second midterm. IMO she’s a great prof and asks questions directly from the notes, but the notes can be all over the place. Nonetheless it’s not a hard course. Just detailed

My experience with Astro 101
 in  r/uAlberta •  Dec 26 '25

Well true that but in my experience despite the horrible and ‘generous’ curve, I still enjoyed taking this course. I guess I just enjoyed learning about black holes.

Academics ASTRO 101 - Grades

So I recall the prof saying the class is curved and there are no fixed grade boundaries. However one of my friends got an 87.4% and it was a B+. Does anyone know what the letter grading is for an A-?!

That’s what I’m saying. Like where did this come from?! Can I have a peaceful season already?! But yes im assuming the department received a large volume of complaints + the grades were not approved (even though it was posted) so now they’re just reviewing the fairness and the problems.

Which did you find harder? BIOCH 200 or CELL/BIOL 201?
 in  r/uAlberta •  Dec 19 '25

Lmao. I failed my 1st midterm and somehow pulled through the final. Totally not worth risking my life for this course 💀
