Hi all! I’m currently picking my first-year courses after being accepted pretty late, and I’m having some trouble understanding exactly which classes I should enroll in.

From the MRU webpage I found, it looks like I need to take these courses:

• EDUC 1231 – Professional Dimensions I
• ENGL 1152 – Identity and Invention: An Introduction to Literature
• NTSC 1112 – An Introduction to Current Environmental Issues
• PHIL 1101 – Philosophy: Knowledge and Existence
• RELS 1105 – Why Religion Matters
• LING 1111 – The Nature of Language I
• MATH 1102 – Introduction to Geometry

I’m a little confused about how a minor fits into the schedule. Do I start taking courses for my minor in first year, or do I mainly focus on these required courses first?

If anyone is in the B.Ed. program, I’d really appreciate hearing what courses you took in your first year and how you organized your Fall/Winter schedule. Any advice would help a lot, especially since I’m registering pretty late. Thanks!

For context, I received an offer for the Bachelor of Education program at MRU today. The problem is that I’ve already accepted an offer for the same program at another university out of town.

I would honestly accept MRU right away since staying in Calgary would be much more convenient for me, but I’m worried about course registration this late in the summer. I’m assuming a lot of the required classes may already be full.

My dilemma is: is there any way to see whether the required classes still have space before accepting my MRU offer? I don’t want to give up the university offer I’ve already accepted, only to find out that I can’t get into the classes I need at MRU.

Has anyone been in a similar situation or received a late B.Ed. offer from MRU? Were you still able to get into your required courses?

Any advice, thoughts, or experiences would be really appreciated!

I’ve been using the milesdown deck but noticed it was not detailed enough for BB. i read some comments and have been persuaded to switch over to Jack sparrow for BB only but couldn’t find the deck. any help locating the deck?? thanks in advance

I've seen some threads of people using Blueprint Prep to write a diagnostic exam before officially jumping into their content review. Would anyone agree that purchasing the blueprint qbanks is useful? (It's kind of expensive but if it's totally worth it, I'll buy it).
