I saw it, I just kept getting the spam message so I couldn't respond to it.

That's pretty awesome. Loving the sig.

So, what should I review now.  I need to do a negative review now- something 1 or 2 stars.

That works.

For my co-op I was attracted more towards the smaller end (though more like small-medium in actuality). We'll see. Though my step-grandfather says it'd be good to get in with the Big 4 just for the experience and also to put it on my resume.

I had an interview with Deloitte last semester. It turns out they wanted me to work 65 hours per week, so that would have meant I'd have to lose a semester of school, which would have ruined everything. That experience would have been worth it, but I still wouldn't have done it. Turns out I didn't end up getting it anyway.

If I ever do that route, I want to just wait until I'm graduated and get a job. I don't want it to interrupt with my school, that's absurd. Co-ops usually are 25 hours a week.

Welcome to the dark side

What you talk somehow implies that. Yes, you can double or triple major. It just means you have to take more classes (credits) in order to graduate. I know someone who is double majoring in Psychology and English; and another guy who is double majoring in Finance and Accounting. You can also have a "minor" which doesn't require quite as many classes as a major, but it's preferred for people who don't want (or can't) to take the larger amount of classes required with a double or triple major.

Thanks again. That's very interesting - and completely different to what we have in Europe. Here, we need to pick from the beginning what exactly we want to study, and we're stuck with it untill the end of the affair. For example, if I want to study history, then I pick the Faculty of History at the University, and all the classes I'll need to take will be dedicated to this, directly or indirectly. [Theoretically it is possible to take classes from other Faculties, but this happens very rare, as the system was built on a different philosophy. I don't know what is required for being able to take such "external" classes. Anyway usually you don't need them because there are already lots of classes to attend, which make than the credits required.]
If you want to study different things, you can enroll to a second University / Faculty; but that's not really a good idea because you'll need to skip classes in one place to attend classes at the other place. Basically the Faculties are "designed" to keep you fully busy so that you can't enroll to more except if you really want it and think you can handle it.
