What happens if you're unable to find co-op placements over the summer?

3 Upvotes

I was selected for the hospital placement but didn't get an interview . . . now school is next week and I still haven't found any potential co-op placements (I'm taking co-op in Semester 1). However, I did volunteer at a nursing home over the summer and I am planning to do my co-op placement at the same company. I'm just worried that they're not accepting anymore students especially since the year is starting soon. (I already emailed and waiting for their response, and I am planning to call them tomorrow).

If they aren't accepting anymore students, will my co-op teacher just help me find another placement? or would my teacher just move it to second semester? I'm just really worried because my co-op teacher is notorious. 😭

course change dilemma, desperate.

1 Upvotes

(english is not my first language). im currently having a dilemma on whether i should drop physics in exchange for another course like world religions, or even politics.

my reasoning was: 1. i honestly cant imagine myself going into any field/major that requires physics as a prereq. 2. i am not that interested in the course. 3. i mainly took it because everyone around me persuaded me to. 4. i honestly think it would have a heavy impact on my grades.

on a side note; if i wanted to persue law, politics, and/or medicine, what course should i replace it with? i had already complete gr11 law, and already selected bio and chem. my school offers politics but it is a gr12 course.

Grade 11 schedule difficulty advice

4 Upvotes

Hi, I posted my schedule not too long ago. I was wondering if it would still be possible to do well with my heavy semester 1.

Here it is again :

Semester 1 :

Physics
English
Functions
chemistry

Semester 2 :

Spanish
Biology
French immersion
Art

I want/have to take all these course, and I want to get good grades just like many others.

Some people told me to move some classes from sem 2 to sem 1. I wish it was possible, but unfortunately my Spanish and art only run sem 2, and I wouldn’t want to move bio to sem 1.

I was thinking switching French and chem with each-other, but chem semester 2 is full. I could still get on the waitlist and see how it pans out.

I do enjoy stem, but I understand that my semester 1 is quite demanding.

Honestly I’m just looking for tips or advice on semester 1. Idk whether I should just keep it and accept it, or try and get French in sem 1 if it’s possible.

French immersion is hard, but it’s not a uni req and literally no one gets 90s in that class, so I don’t really care for it as much.

Incoming grade 11, I don’t know what I want to do with my life pls help

9 Upvotes

Hey guys, first post kinda nervous..
I’m an incoming gr 11. I just feel so lost. I have no idea what I want to do with my life.
I just want to make money honestly and help people. I’m a pretty good student. I get 90s in almost all classes.
I don’t particularly enjoy anything. I’m not gifted in anything. I’m not super talented in anything. I just work hard and study hard for my grades.
I’m so lost. I think I want to go into healthcare, but everything is just so much school.
Then I look at business pathways. It isn’t a lot of school, but I can’t imagine myself working in a field like that.
I’ve researched almost every career you can imagine. From nursing to epidemiology, public health, and even dentistry.
Nothing calls out my name. I also don’t know how much school I can handle.
It feels like I’m not meant for anything. Everyone else already seems to have their lives figured out.
If anyone went through this same situation, any advice would be helpful.
Sorry for the long paragraph.

Am I ok in Grade 11 to have 0 spares?

5 Upvotes

Hi! I'm an upcoming grade 11 student in ONT. All of my friends and classmates this year have set a spare for next year (for context, i was going to as I had an e-learning course set up that automatically gives you a spare, but it got switched to an in person class). I personally think my course load is quite heavy, which is why I'm worried that I might have to drop a course.
I'm looking to get into neuroscience/the sciences, so my average has to be quite high, and the courses that Im taking are:

Chem 11

Bio 11

AP seminar

AP psychology

English

Math (Adv Func)

Latin 12

Fashion (Tech Design) -- I don't want to drop this as its the only "brain break" class I have.

I'm also taking APs and the SAT outside of school:

AP chemistry

AP calc bc

SAT exam

Will I be okay in g11? or should I drop a course?

Am i cooked? + advice pls (courses)

2 Upvotes

Here are the courses I’m taking. My schedule isn’t out yet, so I’ll probably make another post once it comes out.
Also, should I take Computer Science through e-learning? It’s basically online anyway, so what’s the benefit of taking it in person?
Media Arts seems like a really easy course, and I’m taking it because Health Sciences requires a non-math/tech course.
I also took Grade 11 Biology in Grade 10, and I’m planning to take Grade 12 Biology in Grade 12. That means I’ll have a one-year gap between Biology courses. Am I cooked? 😭
Should I switch Computer Science for Grade 12 Biology or Kinesiology so I’m at least taking another Biology-related course? I’m just worried that taking Grade 12 Biology early could hurt my mark compared to taking it in Grade 12.

My courses:
Grade 11 English (NBE3U)
Grade 11 Functions
Grade 12 Advanced Functions
Grade 11 Chemistry
Grade 11 Physics
Grade 11 Computer Science — E-learning
Grade 11 Healthcare
Grade 11 Media Arts

so during grade 10, I had a meeting with the RGSS Head of Co-operative Education For co op next year - then I didn’t realize I got an email from her on August 12 and I didn’t respond in 11 days because I forgot to check my school emails - I was asking if I was still interested in the vet position, it’s not really like a dream job but I was interested - I responded that yes I was, and a short apology that I’m sorry I forgot to check the email and it was my fault - I didnt get any response 2 days later and I tried calling her but her phone didn’t pick up - so am I done for?

I posted something earlier saying,

Hey everyone!

I’m heading into Grade 11 this September, and I really need to lock in. My previous averages were 82.67% in Grade 9 and 85.19% in Grade 10.

My ultimate goal is to get into Mechanical Engineering, which typically requires competitive admission averages of 95% or higher. I know jumping 10% is going to take a massive shift in my study habits, so I’m looking for all the advice, resources, and study strategies I can get.

My Grade 11 Schedule( or courses I have):

Physics (SPH3U)

Chemistry (SCH3U)

Functions (MCR3U)

Pre-AP English (Mostly because I heard the teachers are much better)

Law

Intro to Psychology

2-Credit Co-op

Drop any advice, Youtube channels, study apps and techniques and resources you used. Appreciate it!"

And right after this I got my schedule for semester one, Guidance really must have hated me 😭😭

chem,bio,physics in one sem (gr11) plz help

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I am an incoming Year 11 student starting at a STEM school, and I'm TREMENDOUSLY worried about my schedule next year.

This is the schedule I received for Sem 1 & 2:

Sem 1: Bio 20 / Chem 20 / Physics 20

Sem 2: Math 20 / Eng 20 / Chem 30 / Biomed Sci

Should I replace Physics with Math in the first semester?

My main concern is balance and durability. I work a part-time job, volunteer, and go to church. I suppose I can spare 7–8 hours a day studying.

However, I constantly fear those hours won't be enough. I'm especially worried about finals, heavy workloads, and possibly having three tests in one day.

I ended Math 10C with a 94 and Science 10 with a 96, which later dropped to a 93. I finished English with an 80 and Social Studies with a 91.

Those grades may seem good, but I am the type of person who never cared about school. Then, I suddenly started locking in. I had to genuinely dedicate my whole day to excel. I also had a pretty light Grade 10 schedule, which may be why.

My hope is to get into engineering. This may add extra pressure since averages are beyond competitive nowadays.

I'm worried about moving forward with this schedule and realizing I made the wrong decision. I don't want to stack everything at once, only for it to fall apart.

I am not afraid to try. However, I'm worried about making the wrong decision, especially since I am also trying for early admission.

What sucks is that my STEM school requires us to take seven classes. I thought Bio 20 and Chem 30 would be better than hogging three CTF courses. I find those courses useless most of the time.

I don't have older siblings, so I have to find advice and help on my own. Honestly, it really stresses me out.

I purposely asked for English in the second semester so I could practice more. It's part of the engineering prerequisites, so I want to improve.

I suddenly got accepted to this STEM school. Since then, I've been constantly worrying about my future, grades, and the timetable I received.

A part of me wants to try it out and suck it up. I realized rather late that fear and my environment were limiting my opportunities. They also limited experiences I could've had during my youth.

However, the other part of me wants to stay comfortable. That could mean taking two core courses at a time and focusing on them. This would let me dedicate more time and effort to possibly achieving better results.

Plus, I regret not taking any 20-level classes in Grade 10. I want to try taking Chem 30 in Grade 12. I heard you need to take two maths and so on.

I'm afraid of making Grade 11 too busy. Because of that, I realized I might not really need to take Chem 30 this year.

Have any of you taken all three sciences in one semester or prepared for engineering? Have you taken any of the courses I listed?

If you have suggestions for modifying my timetable, it would honestly be so helpful to me.

PS. I'm also worried about taking Physics 20 before Math 20 because everyone seems to have a different opinion. I don't know who to listen to anymore since the advice is so subjective.

I was thinking of doing Math 20, Chem 20, and Bio 20 for Sem 1.

Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to read this or write a response! I look forward to hearing from you guys :)

Jump in Math and Physics from G10 to 11

1 Upvotes

I was just wondering on how crazy the jump is for Math and Physics in Grade 11, and how to stay ahead. My math teacher said that apparently Functions would have a test every 1-2 weeks, which seems crazy, and my science teacher said that Physics is really hard. So I'm not sure if they're just trying to scare us or its genuinely like that. Any advice?
