Pretty much decided: applying for bachelor of arts faculties at McGill and UBC! What do you reckon my chances are, with 35/36 predicted for the IB?

Well...I think that you'll have a great chance getting into McGill University. As for UBC, it isn't much of a reputable university in the arts stream, but then, I may be wrong.

Since I know how the IB system works, I guess you would definitely get in with your predicted marks...but you must keep them up! :biggrin:

You won't be able to find out the required specific grades on the website. To be honest...it really depends on which course you're taking and the competition among you and your other fellow international competitors.

So...which course are you applying for? :p:

arts & social sciences, economics. :redface:

I dont need math right?

However...for economics...you'll need math...that's for sure. :biggrin:

As for arts and social sciences...not so much. Focus more on your language courses, social science and humanities courses, and other arts courses. However...it's best to have a basic foundation of math...just in case.

I know you can do Math and Econ at the Faculty of Arts at UBC... can you do this in McGill as well?

Brock's business program is a lot better than Carleton's, so it's hard to judge.

Well...I still think University of Western Ontario's business school is better than those two business schools combined. York University's Schulich business program isn't bad either...but I think it's on par with Richard Ivey Business School. As for University of Toronto, there's no doubt that their business program is good.

I also heard that Ryerson University's Ted Rogers School of Management isn't bad either. :biggrin:

Each University has its strong points, I guess :s-smilie:

I've heard that Carleton is good for politics.

Ah...that's what I've heard as well...but I wouldn't know if I would go to University of Ottawa or Carleton University for politics. Both seem pretty close in ranking...in my opinion. :smile:

Ah...I see. I know that it isn't a good neighbourhood...but York University isn't a bad place.

I know that there have been a lot of rape and assult incidents in these past few months...but you can always live away from the vicinity.
