There are classes on Friday. However, be sure to check Avenue before you go because a prof might decide to cancel. I know one of mine already has, so it's definitely worth the look!

But with less than 50 entering the program and most of them going into the business side, my point still stands. I said "it's like they aren't in the faculty." Not that it isn't.

Iron Rings ftw.

Just sayin'.

You got it wrong, most of them stay in Honors Computer Science and only like 1-4 go into Business Informatics.

You didn't say "it's like they aren't in the faculty," you said "you can even say he is not."

And like herBs said, "most" of us do not go into Business Informatics, and even if it was true that most of us did, the Business Informatics option still requires all the same core courses as Honours Computer Science, they just get fewer electives as they're taken up by economics and such.

Still...the point stands that my friend doesn't know what he's talking about

Or he's just trolling you.

Finally we agree on something.

Faculty bashing with grammatical errors

Give the guy a break. We engineers always had spellcheck to cover our fails.

Spellcheck doesn't cover your and you're

But it does give that green line to indicate a possible grammatical error in some cases.

There were about 900 other people who applied at the same time as me (2010 class for highschool) for McMaster CS, and the school only accepts 50. I'm not sure if that means they send out 50 acceptance letters and then take in whoever accepts the school's offer, or if it means they send out more than 50 with the expectation that some people who are offered a spot will turn it down. But in any case, there should be at most 50 new CS level 1 students each year.
