I Passed!
I’m sure people are going to say “oh Josh, of course you passed!”, but the reality is that I barely passed. I got a 72% – you needed 70% to pass, and the class average was 82%. I could easily have been on the bad side of variance and failed. Oh, and oops, scored below average again.
But that’s fine – I’m just ecstatic that I passed and don’t have to remediate or worry about something nasty going on my academic transcript.
Going to go out and celebrate – thanks again for everyone’s support!

Anonymous: Yup, at UofT this year we are now given credit/no credit on our transcript. We are told that while the school does keep track of our marks, residency programs only see pass/fail.
Hey Josh! I had a question about research… I want to volunteer in a lab during the summer. When would you recommend me to write emails to profs asking them if i could volunteer in their lab?
Thanks!
