Best of luck!

You're completely fine! Most applicants do not have any post-secondary education prior to applying! (In fact, I actually don't know anyone who had prior post-secondary education, so you're in good company!) That section is just for people who are looking to get a second degree or are transferring from another university.

​@@PolySpectiveThanks a lot for your help and fast answer bro!! i really appreciate it 🙏🏻

Hola, se que sonará un poco raro, pero quiero aplicar dentro de un año en UBC y aún no se inglés a un nivel decente como para entender mucha de la información acerca de todo el proceso y me preguntaba si quizás tienes alguna red social en la que pudiera comunicarme y contigo y resolver algunas dudas, claro que únicamente si lo deseas. Gracias de antemano!

omg super excited to know someone is applying to BUCS :) To apply to BUCS, there are no additional requirements in addition to the Sauder admission requirements. After being admitted to Sauder, you just need to write an essay explaining why you want to be in the BUCS program. They do say that they only admit "Qualified Candidates", whatever that means. If you think you can do well in chem and physics, taking it could be a good demonstration of your logic skills. A more relevant course like computer programming might also help. However, it should be noted that a good amount of new BUCS students actually have no coding experience, and they can still do well in the program. lmk if you have any other questions, you can dm me on Insta: instagram.com/polyspective?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==

@@PolySpective Hey!! Thank you so much for this information. I definitely don’t want to add them into my schedule because i’m already taking ap macro, pre calc12, calculus and some other courses this year. I don’t want to drain myself because applications open in like a month hahaha! I definitely have more questions I shall dm you :)

Honestly, i don't think there are any official posting of admission averages. According to my orientation last year, a Sauder advisor said that the admission average for my year was 95%. While he is a credible source, I'm also kinda skeptical since most of my friends are below that (and they are doing well in Sauder rn) That's why in my video, i gave a general "low 90s should be fine" , since actual stats like these don't actually exists publicly.

They don’t care about HOW you took the course, they just care about the grade you got :)

I don’t see why not, 96% is good enough in most cases. If you still don’t get in, grades won’t be the reason lol

No need to worry! I didn’t have any AP/IB, still got early admitted! 95 is a solid mark, definitely enough for Arts, you’ll be fine dw👍🏼

@@PolySpective Thank you so much for the response!!!! My anxiety has been through the roof throughout this application process. I still have work ahead of me, but ur comment certainly provides stability to these mini existential crises :)

Glad to be of help!

Yess I love ur pfp Sarte>>

I filled it out just cause I had something to say about it. If you don't know what to write I think it's fine if you leave it empty, but definitely write something if you have things to talk about. TLDR: Writing something meaningful > Writing nothing > Writing bullshit

UBC looks at all grade 11 & 12 relevant courses, but for bio, I don't think anthropology would be a relevant course so you’re safe there. Summer courses are totally fine, but do keep in mind that those marks do count, so take those courses seriously!

@@PolySpective Got it, thank you so much!! :)

1. They didn’t contact my references 2. They only consider grade 11 & 12 averages

If you're not confident about getting a good mark in Chem 12, I don't think it's worth risking. Taking safer courses, and ensuring the "relevant courses" stay at a good mark is more important. Besides, personal profile is also highly important, so I would also prioritize making that look good over taking Chem 12

Grades wise that’ll be around admission average(which is fine lol you don’t need to be the best to get in) Your main concern at this point should be your personal profile, as that’s half your application. If that part is solid, your application will be competitive 👍🏼

Sorry, but can't really help you! I'm only knowledgeable regarding the bachelor's program!

They just look at grade 11 and 12 marks, good luck!

@@PolySpective thank youuuuu💖💖💖

For all science specialization, you need to finish first year before declaring a specialization like cs. For that, your high school grades don't matter anymore, it's just your first year GPA, which needs to be in the mid-80s. To get into science faculty, around low 90s in high school should be fine as long as you also have a decent personal profile!

I'm not sure about the grades needed for a transfer, but I believe the personal profile tips still applies. Good luck!

you.ubc.ca/applying-ubc/requirements/international-baccalaureate/ It depends on the program you are applying for, but here's the link that you can find the info!

This totally depends on where you are from, but for example, if you’re from BC, you can send your transcript via the Education BC system

I'm an international student, do I have to wait for an email from UBC requesting the transcripts? @@PolySpective

Refer to the website below: you.ubc.ca/applying-ubc/applied/submit-documents/#international_high_school_student You’ll receive an email with instructions on how to upload your transcripts and documents. Check the Applicant Service Centre to find out what documents are required to be submitted.

thanks man@@PolySpective

I have no idea what you’re referring to 😂

Actually, no! That average is too high, and the system will flag it as fake information, making your application invalid! Good try tho :)

They don’t care lol

Not even 10? because i've watched your videos and thought that i should start doing more thing outside of schools and try to get better grades 😅

Oh sorry, I thought you were just referring to grades For extra curriculars, definitely start early, as it's more ideal to write about a long-lasting activities rather than writing about something that you just joined a couple months ago. For grades, they really only look at your grade 11 and 12 marks, so you're fine there (Although I do believe that doing well in earlier grades does make it easier to get high marks in grade 11 and 12)

Thanks bro 😊 keep it up ur the best

Accompanied by extra curriculars, yes. I have a friend that got into UBC business with exactly 36 as well, so it’s definitely good enough as long as your personal profile isn’t bad

@@PolySpective thank you so much for replying. My score of 36 is predicted, would that make a difference? My extracurriculars are quite good. Also I’ll be applying to science so would it be easier or harder?

Sounds like you’ll be fine to me, science is not exactly easy, but my friend got into business with 36 too, which is similar in difficulty!
