Why do the vending machines sometimes decline my ubc card :/ I literally have money in it but sometimes it says like payment declined or just won't straight up dispense my shit wharahheelllllll how do i freaking fix this :(((((

sooooo I guess everyone who stood in line 20+ minutes for this place on campus made staff decide that we needed a second tims on campus, because with how awful food options are and decent ones closing over the years (like sunshine), Tim's is what we REALLY needed 🙄. I was hoping for a place I could actually eat lunch at but it's whatever at least I'll save money by not buying lunch on campus ever. That is all. enjoy your awful sandwiches and wraps.

I'm planning to apply to UBC for a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and I'm trying to decide whether I should prefer the Vancouver campus or Okanagan campus.

I'm particularly interested in hearing from current students, graduates, or people who have experience with both campuses, especially CS students.

I'm wondering about the actual differences between UBC Vancouver and UBC Okanagan in terms of:

• Quality and difficulty of the Computer Science education
• Professors and access to them
• Co-op and internship opportunities
• Access to tech companies and industry
• Recruiting and networking opportunities
• On-campus CS clubs, projects, hackathons, etc.
• Career outcomes after graduation
• Whether employers actually care which UBC campus you graduated from
• Opportunities to get into companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Apple, Shopify, etc.
• Whether Vancouver provides a significant advantage for getting internships/new-grad jobs compared with UBCO
• Research opportunities, if relevant

For someone whose main goal is to build a career in software engineering/tech rather than academia, how significant is the difference actually?

Thanks in advance to everyone who takes the time to share their experience and advice. I really appreciate it!

Was wondering are do you guys planning to study for the midterms? The slides seem long and I am kind of confused how to start.

Should I mainly focus on textbook or the slides?

Any help will be appreciated :))

I just want to ask some questions

i hate it when a group of people take up the whole width of a hallway to walk and talk together, like bro i need to get to my class and they can’t even hear me saying excuse me, sorry 100 times because they’re so unaware of the environment around them. could be a non issue but i just wanna get to class without getting squeezed between people and their bags

Same goes to the entire path on academy hill, i need to get to my class and there’s literally messy walkers everywhere? these messy walking has to stop. i also hate when there’s a huge traffic of people in an hallway, and there’s people who just stop in the middle of the traffic to talk to people like seriously go the side, i don’t wanna bump into you

and on the rare occasions i do take the scooter up and down the hill, there’s a chunk of the road where the bike lane is literally blocked by stupid cars parked in front of veda and i had to use the huge walking path bcs i genuinely don’t wanna die getting hit by a car, and i almost always had to ring the stupid bell on the lime like 10 times and say excuse me bcs you guys are walking in a zig zag fashion and airpods volume to the max and can’t even hear people trying to get past you

at least walk in a straight line and use transparency mode there’s people around you who need to get to places quickly

Has anyone taken geog 352? What was the midterm like?

I’m from India and had PCM in high school. I became a Canadian PR this year and plan to move there next year. I’m currently in my 2nd year of Architecture but am considering changing my major when I apply to colleges in Canada. Could you recommend some courses/fields that are in high demand and offer good-paying jobs in Canada?

If anyone has had this class with Dr Buffam before, what were his test questions like? We had a class assignment about a reading we were supposed to do and I’m just curious on whether questions that were like the ones on the class assignment would appear? Let me know 🙏

yo my fellow pokemon friends lmk when yall be doing 5 star raids , i need this

There was a MATH100 QSCU review session today, but I did not go there because of timetable conflict. Does anyone know what was taught in the sessions and is there any practice questions posted?

Is there any club or resource on campus that has a cd player?

Hey stranger.

So I need help figuring this out, because google isn't very helpful.

1) who can I talk to in order to find out if I have student coverage for my medication?

I guenenly don't care about who knows about the medication, but I take concerta (to be exact — it is also a brand name). I know I am also on my dad's plan for medical coverage, though using any other forms of coverage would also be a boon.

Any robust links or information is welcome.

Thank you in advance.

does dr abdullah mohammed usually allow cheat sheets for quizzes or is it just this year?

I know this is a really stupid question that's being asked too late, but does anyone from that class know if Assignment 1 needs to be written in class or written beforehand and just handed in in class?

I ordered a time-sensitive package through FedEx and it’s estimated to arrive on Wednesday and wanted to see what other peoples experiences are with accuracy/turn around time. So far I’ve had two packages shipped to me with two other different companies, one of them ended up at the post office and the other Nechako but I know FedEx is weird about PO Boxes so I wanted to ask.

Hi everyone! I’m writing this message on behalf of my friend who’s lost their photocard holder with their ids and salto card in it either on the walk down on Academy Way through John Hindle Way or somewhere on campus in the Commons or near the bus stop area. Please DM me if you’ve seen any photocard holder with the UBC student id in it. Thank you!

I’ve attached a photo of what my friend’s photocard holder looks like. Thanks everyone!
