This is my second time trying to ask you.? Perhaps you were on break.? I’d first like to start by thanking you in advance for the help.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, I’m a 11th grader (ya another one) and i am concerned about being accepted into u of t.<\/strong><\/p>\n

My marks now are
\n90 Law
\n82? English
\n85 Religion
\nthe grade killer 54 Chemistry
\nthe following are what i will most likely get
\n85 American History
\n90 co op
\n82 Math<\/strong><\/p>\n

i want to get into humanities, the cutoff is 77, my friend told me that sometimes universities won’t even look at your application if you don’t have a science. my question is is this true do i need a science? i just thought holding onto math was good enough
\nthanks again<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am seriously contemplating banning all 11th<\/sup> graders from this site! I don’t know how this came about, but it seems that Ontario high-schoolers share a number of extremely?irksome characteristics, and your question is proto-typical to say the least. What’s wrong with you people??? So for future generations, I devised a little quiz to help you determine your asker status:<\/p>\n

*** Are you an annoying 11th<\/sup> grader?***<\/p>\n

1. Do you tend to send the same question again 2-3 days after the first submission, assuming that yours was lost in cyberspace or perhaps ignored (you just might be on the spot here)?<\/p>\n

2. Do you include your high-school transcript , thinking I may have anything to say about it (I don’t)?<\/p>\n

3. Do you include some sort of rant about how your average is great, except for that advanced functions course, or any other science course for that matter?<\/p>\n

4. Do you make a point of not reading previous posts dealing with exactly the same problem?<\/p>\n

5. Do you find yourself obsessed with unimportant issues like early admissions?<\/p>\n

6. Are you an annoying 11th<\/sup> grader?<\/p>\n

7…. I think you get the point.<\/p>\n

And I’m not at all bitter (uh… yes I am). It’s just that I really hate looking at people’s grades. It makes me feel… icky. And you don’t want to be responsible for that feeling of defilement, do you?<\/p>\n

Whatever, let’s cut to the chase. Your friend is full of sh!t. S\/he’s not a real friend so the first thing I’d do is sever that futile connection. Friends are for the feeble anyway. Plus you can make new friends?once you’re sitting comfortably in the first year intro to philosophy course. Because you don’t need chemistry or any other science course to get into the humanities enrolment category.<\/p>\n

But please, don’t take my word for it. Go to the admissions viewbook<\/span><\/a> <\/span>and check out page 66. And\/or call admissions and awards at 416-978-2190. They’ll tell you everything you need to know. Actually, they might send you back to the website<\/span><\/a><\/span>, so you check that as well. And this one<\/span><\/a><\/span>. To make things short, science courses aren’t perquisites for admission to humanities\/social science. They do say, though, that ?particular attention is paid to English’. So there you go. Have you dumped that friend yet?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
