Question about Computer Science
Hey, I will be going to mac for computer science. And I need help on choosing my 5 electives.
I'm really confused because I don't really know much about the program (in depth) .

About your program. Look at your core courses. From here, http://future.mcmaster.ca/programs/compsci/

This tells me you're doing math and programming for the most parts to understand coding and the mathematics behind it.

Electives are option courses to your degree. They supplement your interests. You can take whatever you want. You can take a language, learn business, etc or easy courses to boost your marks. As long as they are under the approved list. www.eng.mcmaster.ca/documents/electives.pdf

No, those are only open to Engineering program students. You could always try asking for permission, but I did, and they said no.

There are roughly equivalent physics courses listed under Physics, run by the Physics and Astronomy department: http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /CALEN...13/pg1890.html
