No school. However, be prepared to study your ***** off as most midterms occur during that time (either before/after reading week).

Form a study group with people from your class, and destroy the exam, while others are partying.

You have no classes (unless you're taking some continuing education courses; I think those courses typically don't get a reading week).
Take the time to study if you haven't planned a vacation or anything else like that.
From what I've seen, 50% of people say they're going to party during that week, and the other 50% say they'll study but end up reading about three pages all week long :lol:

I'll be locking myself up in the library when I'm not working.

screw all these squares, go on vacation and take your books with you! How do you expect to do well on your midterms if you don't retreat a little bit with a fair balance of rest and academics?! And before everyone pounces back with "well I go to UofT" well guess what, I go to u of t too and this works perfectly well for me!

Reading week is meant for exactly as the name implies...reading.

Take a break. Do light reading instead of telling yourself that you will study everything.

You'll need the time during reading week to "read" :)

Your parents will typically pester you to come home. I highly advise against this. You'll get little to no work done at your house.
Your campus might even feel a bit serene when there's no one around.
Either that, or go to the extreme and fly out to party in Bali for a week.
I've done both =P.
