MSc. Boreal Ecosystems and Agricultural Science- A Warning

Alt account for obvious reasons.

I write this post at full risk that the school will know who I am. My writing style is distinct enough and the program is small enough it won't be hard to put it together. 

I left the BEAS Program. I genuinely had such a bad experience I need to warn people. Let me be very clear: 

If you choose this program you will not graduate on time. After 2 years your funding will cut off and they will expect you to pay tuition. I wish this was not true. Unfortunately it is.

One of our first lectures the program lead laughed and told us that no one graduates on time. All students I knew did not graduate on time. Let me say that again, because I really want to warn anyone thinking about this program.

If you choose this program you WILL NOT graduate on time. After 2 years your funding WILL cut off and they will expect you to pay tuition. 

If you don't believe me ask them. Genuinely ask them what percentage of BEAS students graduate on time. Do not be naive and think you will be the exception. 

It's not about your education it's about a business model. Read up on the school and its financial troubles before you decide to go there.

There is a lot more wrong with this program but this is what I really wish someone had told me. If you have questions about my experience with the program or why I am saying this DM me.

Does MUN provide subsidised Magazine subscriptions?

Hello all!

So, Toronto public library gives like a Pressreader or Flipp subscription as part of their library membership where we can read magazines like Walrus, science, news papers and many more for free. Does MUN provide something like that?

what's the thing about MUN nobody warns you about until you're already here

every school has its quirks but Newfoundland adds a whole extra layer to the experience. could be the weather, the walk between buildings, a specific course everyone struggles through, the social scene, whatever. what's the thing you wish someone had told you before you started so you weren't figuring it out the hard way.

Personal Trainer - works

Hello everyone,

I am looking to become a healthy individual. Currently I am shaped like a twig and I have no stamina or endurance, I am tired of being the way I am. I am looking to get a personal trainer at the works. I have not been to the gym yet. I need genuine advice on - do I directly start with a personal trainer or go with the classes? What kind of attire is necessary for a person going to the gym? What is the best place to get them? How much does the personal trainer charge? As a student, I can’t afford much so what is the price range that I should mentally prepare myself for ?
Please help me.

Am I cooked? Registration

Looks like I just got my fall registration time as 11am. Am I cooked?? My friends seems to be at 8am.

This is according to student hub, but it is not available under prepare to register. For context, I will be taking math 1000, chem 1050, physics 1050, and an english and german elective.
