The fact that he is shy but managed to do so much in terms of socialising gives me hope because uft seems like a scary place for introverts what with the suicides and large class sizes and all.
U of T is not a social school so you really have to put yourself out there by joining clubs and extracurriculars and just doing shit that allows you to meet people. Rotman is an exception because they have to network or they won't get jobs at all, or at least that's what I hear from my friends in Rotman. I'm also an introvert and still am, but how I got out of my shell is I joined a frat (Sigma Chi) and that REALLY expanded my social circle and allowed me to meet some very high achieving people in different disciplines that I otherwise would not have met. If you're interested, come out next fall during frosh week to our rush events and meet all the brothers and see how it's like. You may have a negative impression of frats in general, which is quite understandable, but trust me, my frat is different. For one, we've outright banned hazing which is one of the primary reasons I felt comfortable joining in the first place as an introverted person. We do a bunch of stuff to dry to donate 20 grand to cancer research every year. Plus, you can't beat $600 a month rent in the center of campus xD. Come out if this seems like something you'd be interested in!
@@azniscannedrice I'm a girl lol but I'll def pass on the information to my twin about your frat because it sounds like a super friendly and helpful one. Thank you very much for the advice about the clubs bit tho. I'll keep that in mind.
Thank you so much for making this video! I’m starting my first year at U of T and have been really nervous so watching your videos have helped so much. Thank you💗
Yay! UofT management represent! But I’m doing my boring CPA now after graduating. Nothing interesting like Harvard law school like you! Congratulations! May Allah make all your dreams come true and you succeed. Ameen
Yes! What he said about trying to lighten your courseload is an absolute must in my opinion. Take it from a dumbass like me who had to take 6 courses both semesters in the final year of engineering. Was outright brutal....
Seems like an amazing dude, i can tell hes going to go far! Im still in uoft cs, pretty shitty grades since i dont rlly attend lectures, studied blockchain on my own, took all extra tuition money and threw it into bitcoin, ethereum and chainlink last year after studying logarithmic regression on my own, and now im rich graduating debt free + alot more. Point is , there are always multiple ways to succeed, dont be depressed due to grades on a paper!
Great Job and congratulations on getting a perfect score. However, Law school is generally considered to be easier then School of engineering. Good luck for your future. Try to be an honest, bold passionate Lawyer in future, as World needs such lawyers.
Ishtiaq Ahmed true that but I wouldn’t say it’s a breeze though. Med school, engineering, law or any post college school is harder then college... and that says a lot cause idk about you but college was hard lol.
Hi Richard! I have already applied to UofT Faculty of Arts and Science. However, I am planning to change my program (which is still within the same faculty) after finishing my first year as I applied to one I wasn't really interested in. I am aware that it is possible as long as I have the new program pre-requisites. Are there any disadvantages if I do this? Should I choose courses that suit my intended program in first year? Thanks!
Hello, thank you for your question. So first of all congratulations on applying to UofT! As far as I know switching programs shouldn't put you in any disadvantages. The only thing would be that in second year, your friends may know more content than you since they took all the courses that were required in their first year. However this ties into your second question, if you do take the courses that suits your intended program, you won't have to worry about this problem. I know some of my friends are switching programs as well, so its a pretty common thing. I hope I was able to answer your questions and if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
hey, I really like your videos! I am recently admitted to Rotman Commerce too and I have been watching your videos even before that. Can you please talk more about the One programs they have? I am interested in joining one of them but was curious as to will it made my first year harder especially since RC was quite a challenging program? Thank you!
Hello first of all thank you for your kind words, it really motivates me to make more videos👍 So unfortunately I didn’t take any one programs so my answer to this question will not be as strong. However that goes out to say, if you are wondering if certain courses will be hard I can tell you that yes, some courses are harder than others but generally speaking all the courses at UofT are pretty challenging. Congratulations on your acceptance and I am very glad my videos were able to help you. I hope I was able to answer your questions and if you have any further questions please let me know! I wish the best of luck to you in the future👍
Please don’t be discouraged after watching this video, we all have different talent and there is no reason to scold yourself. If you have any questions regarding the video please let me know and I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
hey, for the transfer credits, could you ask him if he used his credits on core courses? I also have credits but they would go towards core courses for the major I want to go into in second year, so I'm really worried about that. I don't want to risk it but I also really want to use them to get a lighter course load
Great question, so I asked Jack and he said his didn't go towards core courses and that they were only applied to electives. I hope I was able to help and if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
Haha yes, it’s not as hard as you think it is. I made a whole video on how to get into the University of Toronto & UBC, so check out my video “How I got into University of Toronto & UBC” to learn how to get into universities. I hope I was able to help and if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future 👍👍👍
Hey Richard, i have a question, i don't understand the terms of doctors are law people. Not like students but like actual doctors, are those teachers are something else because i always don't understand when in the news it says, here is a doctor from uft, etc.
Great question, so the term "doctor" can be used to anyone with a PhD (Doctorate degree). So the person doesn't need to be an actual doctor you see at a hospital to be called a doctor. I hope I was able to answer your questions and if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish you the best of luck in your future!
I read on some forums that some UofT courses are hard not because of the content but because the teachers are bad and dont bother putting in effort because they have got tenure anyways. I also read that some professors bell curve grades on purpose to lower the average because apparently the dean doesn't like people doing so well. Are those things fully or partially true?
Hey, I currently go to UofT, just finishing up my first year and I've heard the ame rumours about the whole bell curve thing when I was applying. Regarding the professors, this isn't high school you can't expect your professors to spoon feed you all the information, considering there are about 500+ kids per lecture, you're gonna have to put in your own effort. Regarding the bell curve, its very rare for a professor to bell curve down, if the class average is relatively high, then the professor might just make a harder exam or just mark much harder. Again UofT is a internationally wide known university and with that comes its advantages and disadvantages, first year is where they will try to weed you out, but the university also provides a bunch of resources and if you genuinely have a good work ethic you'll do fine. Most of the people that are on these online forums are because they don't have the work ethic and don't want to put in the effort it requires to stay at a university like UofT so they come online trying to blame the university for all their problems.
Another great question, so from my experience I don't think the professors here are bad. I enjoy all my professor's lectures, but I would like to say that since I don't know all the professors in UofT I can't guarantee you that all the professors are like my professors. I think the content can get pretty challenging and that may cause some people to think that professors are not putting enough effort to explain the content. However so far my experience with the professors were positive and I know that there are lots of rumors about UofT but I don't think you have to worry about them too much (Its not as bad at it seems). I hope I was able to answer your questions and if you have any more questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
Great question, so yes Jack took IB classes in high school which is why he was able to get transfer credits (He talks about this later on in the video). He didn't really go in detail about his extracurricular activities from high school. I hope I was able to answer your questions and if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
Thank you, I am glad that you found this video helpful. For your question, I suggest you check out my other video "Interviewing the smartest guy at the University of Toronto (Part #3)". Jack tells us how he manages time and some useful study tips for future students (if you have time I suggest you check out Part #2 as well). I hope I was able to answer your questions and if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
Yes I remember your comment on one of my other videos as well. I would love to make the dorm tour video but unfortunately as I mentioned, everything at New College is closed and I had to move back to my home for this semester (Due to COVID-19). The closest thing I can offer is my "Day in life at the University of Toronto" video and for more dorm related information you should check out my video "Everything you need to know about the dorm"😭. I am very sorry for this but I promise you that I will upload something about the colleges in the future. Best of wishes
Im sorry its my fault there is something wrong with my CZcams app and i wasnt able to see your replies earlier, i did figure out that the covid-19 situation affected your day to day life as well i will surely watch that video and i am waiting for more content from you keep up the good work ❤❤❤
Great question, so since both me and Jack were pursuing a bachelor's degree, and are not international students it's very hard to answer this question. So I would suggest that you contact the university about this question. I am sorry I couldn't answer your questions but if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
Great question, but I am not too sure how the application will work if you just graduated from Adult school, so I would highly recommend that you contact the university about this. I am sorry that I couldn't answer your question but if you have any further questions please let me know. I wish the best of luck to you in the future!
Yes you can do an exchange program but its not only confined to Rotman Students. Its a faculty wide program where you can spend a bit of time studying abroad! I hope I was able to answer your question and if you have any further questions please let me know!
Richard Han :DD I heard something about needing to complete 4 credits first? So does that mean I’d only be able to start exchange at a certain time like after x amount of years
I am so sorry for the late response its because CZcams hasn't been sending me notifications and I have to check every comment manually. So I actually haven't heard about the prerequisites to become an exchange student, so I would suggest that you contact the university directly about this. I am sorry I couldn't answer your question explicitly but if you have any further questions please let me know!
Please can someone answer this question, what is the minimum GPA that is needed to enter Harvard? Please, someone who knows how to answer this question, I will be very grateful😔♥️
I'm not sure exactly but they have requirements on their website. There are also some special cases. They could find a really special applicant that did other things they were impressed by and admit them even though their GPA or marks are lower than the one listed. Of course I would pay attention to the marks though cause you wanna be on the safe side. Good Luck. I hope you get in.

Uoft student here! Can I ask what his LSAT was?
@@faatehali79 99% :)
His voice radiates confidence. I love it.
Clearly uoft isnt UofTears for him
Agreed
The fact that he is shy but managed to do so much in terms of socialising gives me hope because uft seems like a scary place for introverts what with the suicides and large class sizes and all.
Yes UofT is not as harsh as it seems to be, you will do great here as well👍
@@RichardHan thank you for saying that.

he’s smart af but if he got thru UofT engineering with that GPA, he’d be God level
Jack is a very smart guy indeed👍👍👍
Smart talent or hardwork
@Wiknis Prend I think it’s both👍
Isn't there like a 14 year old girl with a 4.0 GPA in Eng Sci right now? I heard a rumour about that in 2nd year
@eric liu Wow she must be very smart as well👍

My gpa is 3.99 and I know several people from financial economics specialist with 4.0 CGPA (like srsly they got 97, 98, 99 in every courses)
Great video, Richard!! Keep them coming :)
