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! :)

YAY! I knew Josh couldn’t fail ;)

haha I knew someone would say it!

Pass / Fail :)

omg so happy you passed,
i had my fingers crossed for you the whole time!

Wow! All’s well that ends well :)

On your transcript is it just a pass/fail or is there an actual percentage shown?

Congrats btw!

Medaholic: Yah I’m pretty happy about the system, except last year when we had honours 60 was a pass :P

Anonymous: Thanks! :0

Nadia: Haha this time, maybe not next time… :)

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!

Yah, I suggest emailing some professors telling them about your interest in their work, and attaching a C.V. with the email.
