[quote=metaghost4]I saw UBC, it looks very like a very run down and dead place imo...[/quote]
If you think UBC looks run down you should go see SFU. It's winter break so of course campus is very empty. It's really pretty in March/April when it's sunny and the cherry blossom trees are in bloom.
[quote=Gyroscope]All U level courses dam.. I'm also assuming you're taking Calculus and Vectors, Data Management, Accounting, and some other U course next semester?[/quote]
I'm not planning on taking Data, I want to get some bird courses in. Next semester as of now is Calculus, French, English and Accounting, 6 weeks of hell and then it's smooth sailing.

[quote=SitBar]@Ecliptic: What's your average plus what ECs do you have?[/quote]
93%, terrible ECs though. Some retirement home volunteering and creating two forums with a friend, pretty much nothing else.
@SitBar: I'm pretty much guaranteed into Schulich and Laurier, really hoping for McGill, I only clear the cutoff by 1%, need to get the average up. Laurier has a pretty decent social scene so....
@SitBar: Good Luck
[quote=gioto2012]well i'm currently a 2nd year student at york-schulich but when during my application process the programs i applied to were:
York - Schulich
Uoft Rotman
Queens commerce
waterloo AFM - CA
didn't apply to ivey because i had no interest in going there and it'd be a waste of money to apply. I ended up going to waterloo because i wanted to move out and live with my friends since most of them were going to waterloo as well. However after 1st year i decided it was best to move back to save some money. Thankfully i got into schulich again[/quote]
How's the on campus recruiting at Schulich, anyone from the big banks?
@SitBar:
McGill Desautels and Economics
Laurier
Schulich
and either McMaster or QC or Queens Economics
@SitBar: Well, Brock has literally no name recognition, whereas York has some. Realistically co-op shouldn't be a deciding factor. If you know what you are doing, you should be able to land some solid internships.
@SitBar:
The best for accounting would be Schulich, Queens and Laurier
The best for Finance, IB, Consulting would be Ivey, McGill and Queens
[quote=Gyroscope]You should go to Ryerson because you mentioned you want to be a business major. It just so happens that Ryerson is known to be one of the best business schools and did I forget to mention the school is located in the heart of downtown and very close to the financial district of the city? You're basically guaranteed to land a job after your graduate because my friend told me the school has strong connections and networking with corporations, companies, and alike in the business district.[/quote]
Ryerson is a safety school.
If you want to make it in business in Canada you go to either Queens, Ivey, Schulich or McGill. Anywhere else you are pretty much wasting your time, although Laurier seems to be building a base in a lot of industries.
Ivey has the most alumni
Queens follows closely behind
Schulich has the big 4 on speed dial
McGill lands a lot of people into McKinsey & Co.

@WhitePegasus
The deadline is the 15th for most Ontario Universities (to send in the application, supplementary forms are due at later dates depending on the school). McGill's deadline is in February, not sure about the rest of the Schools.
Good luck on your applications!
[quote=WhitePegasus]Is the final deadline in 15 days? wtf lol. So after January I have no chance of applying to any other schools? Please elucidate the monster of applying to this confused BC kid o.o[/quote]
Maybe it's an Ontario thing? o.o I know UBC's deadline is in February. Regardless of the deadlines, you should be applying to schools right about now.
