<p>in mcgill do they have tutorials. that is maybe a much smaller group meet up with a TA to study what was done in the week for example</p>
<p>Not for ALL classes, but yeah, they have tutorials for a lot of them - at least all my science classes do (chem, bio, psysics, math…). Also, many arts courses have conferences, where you get together with a TA and a small group to have better discussions than you could in a huge lecture hall. Tutorials and conferences take a lot of extra time out of your day, but they’re incredibly helpful - some are mandatory and some aren’t. Most profs and TAs are available outside of class during office hours, too.</p>
<p>sorry to sound stupid - but what is a tutorial?</p>
