MSAF lasts for 5 days.
Trust me, last week before reading week? Light at the end of the tunnel. Hang on.
You'll want to MSAF the first week back.

same with my managerial 2 weeks ago it was also 30%. somehow I did really well. Good luck on your midterms.


For Finance our prof, in his Avenue post said "Students can elect to use the MSAF process (McMaster Student Absence Form) if they are unable to write the recheduled midterm. Details and links to information about MSAF are included in the course syllabus. Student can use the MSAF only once per term (for all courses). If you have already used the MSAF this term, please see the APO immediately to discuss options. I will make a separate announcement about the redistribution of available marks for those students electing to use the MSAF. This redistribution will be the same for all students in this course who use the MSAF."

lol

Lmao. There are too many pages to scan man. Why not just invest $80 into the course? I thought you needed some help with the actual material itself. I'm sure you can lend a copy off of a friend, and take photos/scan yourself, no?

You can buy the coursewear for $40, which is what I did and that is all I have been studying from since you get problems + full solutions. I thought it was worth it

I think it's worth it too. I also like reading the textbook, so I bought both things.
