Exams
Bit of an odd question I know, however I have a job in my hometown and would love to know when to tell my boss i can work again after exams. If it is impossible to tell when exams are this early then that would work. Although I'm assuming it is not possible in which case a guess of around which days would help, Im in soc sci and in first semester have; kinesiology 1y03, sociology 1a06, math 1k03, french 1a06, and psych 1x03.
Even just the day of my last exam would help a lot.

While the dates regarding specific courses are not out yet and might not be for a while, the last possible day for any exam should be December 22nd for the winter session.

Indeed. The preliminary exam schedule usually comes out sometime in late-ish October with the final schedule being released in November.
Its also important for you to know that you can have an exam every day of the week except for Sunday. Exams also start around 9 in the morning and can go until 10:30 at night (not continuously, there are multiple exam times on any given day).

Exams i think run from the 5th - 22nd or something, but you could end earlier depending on the days you have exams. You wont know that until around november though.

Yeah, I know people who ended like a full week or week and a half before the 22nd.
And I hate them because that was never the case for me .

You could always have four exams in the first three days,then 13 days off and write one one the last day at 7:30pm.
That's the best exam schedule ever.
Well, not ever, but it was certainly the worse one I've had so far.
