11 COURSE SELECTION Tips for success Be realistic about the number of courses you can handle. It is recommended that you schedule a minimum of one hour of study time for every hour of class time. For example, a 75-hour Biology course should be allotted 10 hours a week in your schedule 5 hours of class time (as per the timetable) and 5 hours of study time. Register in the appropriate course level. If you plan to register for an English and/or French course, please see below for information about placement. If you are unsure of your level in other subjects and need more information call for a referral to the appropriate person. You may also check the Science Sequence chart on page 49 and/or refer to previous final examinations on the Dawson website (see the bottom of page 49). If you are registering in person, bring all records of grades (non-dawson) to registration. Plan ahead. Make sure you are aware of the prerequisites for CEGEP or university programs for which you intend to apply. If your English skills are weak, consider starting with an English course to improve your skills before taking other courses. Consider your budget and remember that the fees do not include textbooks and materials. These can be quite costly. ENGLISH & FRENCH PLACEMENT English Placement Students who plan to register for an English course this semester and who have not completed an English course at Dawson College or an English course at the 101 level at another English CEGEP, must write a placement test in room 4C.1 on one of these dates: Tuesday, June 14 at 6:00 p.m. or Tuesday, August 2 at 2:30 p.m. or Wednesday, August 3 at 6:00 p.m. or Monday, August 8 at 2:30 p.m. or Wednesday, August 10 at 6:00 p.m. or Monday, August 15 at 4:00 p.m. or Thursday, August 18 at 2:30 p.m. No appointment is necessary, but please bring your Dawson student number.
