RE: 101?

["Domaschuk, Rob" <Robd -at- datalogics -dot- com>]

In Canada, (at least Winnipeg), grade 10 had the 100-level courses, grade 11
had 200, and grade 12 had 300.

x00 (e.g. 100, 200, 300) - this are university-entrance courses
x01 (e.g. 101, 201, 301) - academic courses, but univeristies won't accept
them as entrance courses
x04 - remedial courses (e.g. "oops, we in the public schools forgot to teach
you how to write a sentence.")
x05 - often "special topic" courses (some are university-entrance level).

I needed five 300 courses to get into university, and the pre-req for a
"300" was a "200", which had a "100" as its pre-req. I guess they thought
that if you could figure out that system, you could handle university!


Let's see, how to relate this to technical writing..... Beats me, I took a
"Logic 104" course :-)
