I’m failing grade 12 math my average is a 48. However my other courses are 95+ will this affect me getting into U of t St George campus for social sciences<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n

it may affect you to a certain extent, in that you need to pass a certain number of classes to, you know, graduate high school<\/a>. and uoft kinda requires that you get your high school diploma before you come to university. crazy, right? i know.<\/p>\n

however, in terms of your admissions average – as i’ve said time and again – only your top six 4U\/M courses (including prerequisites)<\/a> will be counted (provided you’re an Ontario high school student<\/a>).<\/p>\n

so the mark itself shouldn’t affect the average they’ll use to determine admission, assuming math isn’t a requirement for whatever program you’re interested in (which it’s probably not, because social science<\/a>*), assuming you’re presenting more than 6 Grade 12 University\/Mixed courses.<\/p>\n

now, let’s all try to move past this question, shall we<\/a>?<\/p>\n

cheers,<\/p>\n

aska<\/p>\n

* i should add that, once you actually get to uoft, there are some social science programs – like economics – which require Grade 12 calculus (that’s MCV4U1), so math may be necessary for you down the line, EVEN IF it’s not calculated as part of your top six. just so you know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
