Hi Aska,I have a question regarding acceptance. Right now I’m in my final year of high school and have already applied to UOFT at the St. george campus for humanities. All of my marks are 90 and above except for math.. my math mark is about to be in the 60’s. However, I don’t want to use math in my top 6 because my other courses will replace math. Will this mark affect my entrance even if it isn’t in my top 6? thanks<\/p>\n

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n

y’all are overthinking this.<\/p>\n

what does the word ‘top<\/a>‘ mean? if you have a mark that it not one of your top six highest marks, then it\u00a0won’t be in your top six<\/em>. it really is as easy as that<\/a>.<\/p>\n

look at it this way: if you took 7 courses, and you got 90s in 6 of them, and a 60% in the seventh, then the 60% class would not be in your top six. it would be in seventh place. seven is less than six. you see what i mean?<\/p>\n

so no, if your math mark is not in your top six highest 4U\/M marks including prerequisites<\/a>, then it will not affect your admissions chances. whoo<\/a>!<\/p>\n

good luck on your application, friend. try not to bust a blood vessel over it<\/a>.<\/p>\n

cheers,<\/p>\n
