Best bet is to talk to the academic advisor of your faculty...office is like KTH129. Hours and stuff: http://www.socialsciences.mc master...associate-dean

Why am I being helpful...

You need at least 24 units to get into a level II program, I guess you could take summer school to get those units, but I'm not too sure about what to do now, you should chat with an academic advisor and they'll put you on the right path.

Do you have Down Syndrome?

I'm afraid this might be end of the line for you

Thanks for the advice everybody. I talked to an advisor and they gave me a lot of good advice so everything looks dandy for next year.

and no I don't have downs syndrome thanks...

I agree with jamescw1234 with summer schooling, since it gives you a lot more free time to work and get your mind focused on it.

For example, I failed 3 courses in first semester of first year and got a 12 in summer doing something else....

And now I'm in Honours LS!

Cheer up! ^_^

EDIT:
PS: Take Japanese Studies courses if you have electives/or if it is required in you Soc. Sci. Courses, 2TT3 and 2P03 are fun bird courses if you study! Dr. Mark Rowe will make your day in lectures!
