I’ve missed a lot of “fun” but working throughout college I’ve got so many good job experiences. I’m graduating in May and plan on pursing my MBA next fall. Working full time and being a full time student has not been as hard as I thought but I get no free time to do anything else sadly.
My first year was rough, far away from home at barely 18. My anxiety and depression started to manifest themselves at that time. My second year was also hard, but better and it went uphill from there. I also took five years to complete my bachelors in science. I'm still in uni but in grad school now and things are much better :D.
My college experience was meh but because my college sucks, but I relate to your lessons, I also spent pretty much since my 3rd semester gathering work experience and all and never went to party or hang or things like that and now I lowkey regret it even though I'm not a party guy I still regret it, I luckily got to know everyone in my major but like the memories are limited just cuz I didn't have those 'adventures' yknow what i mean? I do believe people need to not focus too much on grades and all cuz college is q fune experience that does not repeat because even if you study another major, you'll be older and is harder to socialize cuz there still exist a little that happens,at least that's how I felt my experience so it's goodto enjoy when possibel
I did my first year of business school at JMSB and I hated it, like you said there was no sense of community within the school. I transfered to HEC Montreal and now finished bilingual BBA. Great video tho! Binge watching what your videos. Keep up the good work !
so random but im applying this year to psychology as well, may I ask what was your average or experience applying? im so scared of getting rejected lol
@@jacqueline9669 Well I come from a cégep and have a pretty high R score (34...) So I was accepted very quickly. The application process is pretty straightforward. What questions exactly do you have?
Hey! I have applied for graduate diploma in Biotech and genomics from India. I applied in oct 2021 for sept 2022 intake. Could you tell me when can i expect decision on my admission? Also the deadline is shown to be feb 2021 for admission, does it mean that admission decision would be declared after feb or is it first come fist serve basis?
Thank you so much for this video! I'm also going to Concordia this Fall and I'm soooo nervous but thank you for this!! Makes me feel less alone/anxious
I definitely relate to so much of what you said. I used to prioritize working and saving money to travel home (to Jamaica) over school & making friends in first and a bit of second year.
Living on the loyola campus was definitely both a gift and curse. We had an amazing community and everyone was friends but it took almost an hour to get into the city by bus. Grey nuns had a such a jailhouse kind of vibe, I can't imagine ever living there
@@samanthazonneveld6278 hey! seems like you have applied from india to concordia uni! I had questions about the school too for applying from india! Can i expect any help?
started at Concordia last February and did my first 2 years online :( it's so depressing knowing i've missed out on the normal college experience & haven't made a single friend so far...
Hii, i started college this year and let me tell you i never cried so much in my life. 😂😂 but after listening to your video, i am happy that you and maybe other people experienced what i am experiencing right now. i thought i was the only one finding school hard. this video made me realized that yes its hard right now for school but in the end its all worth it. thank you making this video!!! ps im glad that i found someone who lives in the same city as me and relates with the weather ahaha!!!
Hey Zoe! thank you for this video! I would love if you made a video on you major & your job. I would like to know what do you do in your job, like your tasks, skills used, example of projects, daily schedule, etc. I would like to know also about your minor in Finance, like what are the classes or the subjects you studied. 💖
Sorry if it sounds like a bit of a random question but is there any chance that you recall how hygienic the bathrooms were? I just learned that the residence have a community bathroom or something like that.
@@monsuratajayi432 hello, but I m not pretty sure if I can really answer your questions correctly. I recommend you to post your questions on reddit to ask some international students who study in Concordia , I believe that the answer will be better than mine !! ☺ good luck!!
"It's super stressful, it's super fun!" Zoe 2020. Put that on a shirt cuz that's mood! Release your podcast already! I'm ready for zoe's diaries or zoe 101 but dont get sued for that one, overall love hearing your stories and beautiful as always keep up the good work!
Also keep repurposing your content! This could be a cool instagram carousel and the podcast idk maybe I'm in marketing mode lol just want you to grow everywhere lol
Is it easy to make friends if you are in different college? Ex- someone from Concordia university can be friends with someone who is in college( diploma)
Do you think buying a car (and getting your license) in Montreal as a student is a good idea? And is it overall worth it? I've heard public transport is extremely good there and everything is connected underground but as a person who has lived in the desert and has only used a bus for public transport I am very used to cars. ( Greetings from Dubai btw. )
Hey fellow concordian here. You don't really need a car in Mtl tbh. The city has a great metro system. Unless you live very far which is highly unlikely having a car really does not help. Considering the campus is downtown, there is parking fee and other factors to consider. Hope it helps
Someone told me that University is less intense than college/Cegep, because the school assumes that all students need and have jobs to pay for their education. Is this true?
Priya I'm planning to do the MBA for Fall 2022. After I talked to John Molson about the program, I think it is more like MBA + CFA. Which I can take the CFA on my own while paying a much lower tuition. If you care about ROI this is something you should consider.
Hey, I’m from bolivia and I just applied to study at Concordia. I’m really nervous, will I have a scholarship? Or how do I get one, are the classes harder if you struggle with speaking English? I’m scared I’m not gonna make any friends
you will for sure make friends! concordia is such an internal school. As for scholarships & class difficulty, it totally depends.. sadly not something I can help with
Can you please suggest is it necessary to know/learn French to make friends and have good experience in Montreal? I have applied to Concordia University for my masters
hiii, it was such an amazing video. I am from India, I want to know more about the university . literally struggling right now . My majors would be business course. can you let me know about the fee structure and more details.
Hey, I was wondering if going to Concordia properly prepared you To enter the workforce? As a business student I am debating on whether I should go there. Do you recommend it? I enjoy your videos by the way!🌺
From what I get from this, you went to University for experience the partying life and not to get an Education. I think most people go into University not knowing what they really want to do in life.
Hi Zoe, Thank you for the vid. My daughter is considering Concordia. Do you think a residence on the Loyola campus would allow for more opportunities to meet people? It seems to be more of the traditional college campus feel. Based on her major I think most of her classes would be at the Loyola campus.
Hi I loved your video you really help me a lot, I need an advice bc I was thinking to applied to the Concordia presidential scholarship, I'm from Mexico do you think is a good idea?
hi zoe i am a french student living in morocco and i plan to come to montreal next year to start my studies in business. I really hesitate between JMSB and HEC. Which university would you recommend to me?
Mam My🥰 10th gpa is 4.56 out of 5 and 12th gpa is 3.58 out of 5 and I also have band 7.5 in IELTS.Will i get into at concrodia University by this GPA.? Please vai tell me.I'm from Bangladesh

I failed my first year at Concordia. I started with online classes. now its mandatory to do online classes and its stressing me out
For all of those wanting to go to Concordia, go to GREY NUNS RESIDENCE (not Loyola) ! It's a must to fully enjoy the first-year experience!
Why?? What’s the pros and cons of each residences?
Im going to live there in a few weeks! Can you tell me a bit about why?

not at all!!
Is gina school far from main campus or it is part of the main campus ?
main campus, right downtown

that is entirely false... i explicitly mentioned how many parties I missed because I was working & studying

What are your thoughts on masters in construction engineering and management at Concordia ?? Is it really hard ?
Its super easy. Just need to know long division.

If I am having B grade in bachelors (5.5 CGPA), do I have any chance of admission ?
