are sciences relatively hard to get into? chem in particular
———————————————
hey there,
i dunno man. i guess that depends on how smart you are, doesn’t it? and how smart everyone else who applies this year is.
unfortunately, i don’t know how smart you or anyone else is. i don’t know a lot of things. i’m not very smart, myself.
the only thing i can do is direct you to this year’s anticipated grade ranges for people admitted to uoft in 2014. i’m tempted not to give this link out for the umpteenth time, but i’ll do it, ’cause i’m kind. you can use those numbers as a rough guide to figure out how you measure up to the pack.
chemistry is not something you can apply to out of high school at uoft. if you wanted to get into chemistry, you could apply to the life science or physical/mathematical sciences streams out of high school.
from there, you could apply to a chemistry specialist/major/minor after first year. if you want to know how difficult it is to get into those programs, you can read about them on the course calendar.
here’s a tip: look up whether the specialist/major/minor is/are type 1, 2 or 3. type 1 is automatic admission, type 2 has certain prerequisites for admission, and type 3 has requirements, plus the program only has a limited number of spots.
here’s hoping uoft has a positive REACTION to your application! get it? get it?
cheers,
