This program essentially gave me a “wake up” call that if I want to make the transition from high school to university less stressful, I have to start preparing now. I learned how to take notes that are both useful and help me retain the knowledge I learned, and this skill will be crucial in University courses. I also learned how to better organize my tasks and prioritize based on deadlines, grade value and length of completion. o

One thing that I learned that was most valuable was hearing the raw, authentic experience of the instructors when they experienced post-secondary education. There are not many opportunities that present themselves where someone that has gone through something shares what they have learned and what they wished they knew with you, and I found that to be very helpful. o

I really enjoyed this program...I feel like the program is a great crash course to train secondary students for post secondary. They have the opportunity to acquire valuable soft skills that are essential to succeed in university such as prioritization, effective note taking and self directed learning. In addition, the coding aspect of the program can allow young programmers to be fluent in another language or enrich their current experience. In essence, the program was really fun and useful for me! o

I liked how interactive and hands-on the program was. The classes were not only focused on learning the content but also getting in practice and personal experience. I would recommend anyone who’s interested in a gateway into Python coding and machine learning to take this course. o

I learned about various topics of science including biology, physics, and chemistry. I also learned many soft skills that will help me in high school and post-secondary education. I would recommend this program to anyone because it is a good learning experience! o
