Hey, I am a student at Mac and lately i’ve been stressing out about grad school. I’m an honor B.A in poli sci and right now i only have a B to a B+ average and i was wondering about my chances about getting into grad school at U of T or at this point anywhere. I have to do one more semester but right now I cant think of a future outside of school.
\nThanks and all the best Aska.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

???????????????<\/p>\n

Yo yo Gangsta (I’m just assuming you’re a thug as you go to school so close to the Hammer)<\/p>\n

Here’s the little bitch about applying to Grad school (and Undergraduate for that matter), the entry grades change from year to year based on the amount of people applying and their grades. Damn that competition, but really what would the world be without it.
\nHere’e what the U of T Poli Sci website states:
\n“For admission to the MA program, we normally expect a B+ cumulative GPA or above. We take into account improvement over the course of your undergraduate career.”
\nMeaning that I would still apply because it could be one of those years when he GPA is a little lower OR kill you next semester and raise it to a firm B+ or A -.
\nIn anycases, it’s not a total write off … but check out this database<\/span><\/a><\/span>,?it gives you the entry requirements for each graduate school in Canada. Click on the program name?of each school to see the details.
\nI’ve seen some as low as 73 (University of Northern British Columbia) … probably because they feel bad for making their school name so long.<\/p>\n

So … yah, your life?is?not over yet. And I’m sorry it could never work out between the two of us, all I cant think about is a life after school. I just wasn’t meant to be.<\/p>\n

Until we can be together again,
