Likewise, with the caveat that although I speak french fluently, I really can't write very well.

I've only got 2 courses this semester, between hockey and the fact that I want to transfer to finish my degree, that's really the best thing.

HTST 381: War and Society from Napoleon to the Nuclear Age
SOCI 325: Introduction to Deviance & Social Control

I've found that by doing a course in one of the spring or summer semesters, I can get away with doing less during the main semesters, and it's way better in terms of focus, particularly on papers. Smaller classes, and more focused lectures, and the profs are usually really good.

Shadeoracle: my brother's in grade 10 (15 years old), and one of his friends, in Math 10 Pure (regular stream math basically,) is in a class where the average, before scaling, is 56%, so they had to scale it by about 20 points too. In grade 10! I've been in classes where scaling happens and I hate it. Although it is nice when your 84 on the final exam gets boosted to 106. [img]smile.gif[/img]
