What flight would you guys recommend? From Toronto to Heathrow? I don't travel outside of the states or Canada and am very shocked to see prices $1300+.

Itll be easier, cheaper and quicker to fly to Birmingham and travel on to Leicester than go via London!

Hi everyone. Next year, I'm applying to UWO (University of Western Ontario) for their 2+2 program (basically studying economics for 2 years and then doing their HBA program at the Richard Ivey School of Business)

I was wondering if anyone could give me any insights on the course? the studentawards forum is pretty much dead compared to TSR which is disappointing :P

any information on London, Ontario would be appreciated as well - thanks in advance!

Hi there,

I've actually posted a thread or two on the studentawards forum - are you Richard Wong by any chance?

Basically, I'd like to know what are the specific A-level requirements for entry (e.g. what grades do I need to have a competitive chance) and also - if I want to do economics and then go onto the HBA, will I have to major in economics in 2nd year?

I know I can do a variety of course in AEO1 but what happens in AE02 if I want to continue with economics e.t.c?

Mashallah. I am Don Corleone. I want it. I have money to invest.
No deal.
Be careful. I will acquire all your company now, and you will get nothing.

Good! I love Brewster, but if he's playing Howard or Martin I have to cheer for my fellow Canadian.
Hi, I have lived on the east coast of Canada for my entire life and would be happy to answer any questions you have.

As someone applying to Oxford and who has emailed Oxford on several occasions, I must interject and note they expect a minimum of 85% average, equivalent to AAA. For subjects such as medicine, maths, etc. they require minimum 90%, equivalent to A*AA.

That's unfortunate how they view the Canadian education system. Hope you enjoy Edinburgh though! :biggrin:


this is so facked-up. it's like someone going to UBC or UT has a high chance of getting in LSE, IC or evwn Oxbridge.
