You forgot that you need to beat the RS broadway to bby park garlardi challenge
broadway to bby parkway in 40secs
luxury parking, whitespot, subway footlongs... all adds up to cost

The shitty hill kills my fuel mileage. I get roughly 100km less from a full tank compared to driving on "flatty" terrain.

So this is my profile so far :
Cgpa: 2.86 ( Will go up to 2.9 or above after this semester )
GPA of all business classes = 3.13
Upper division business gpa = 3.03
Jobs:
Held 2 seasonal 4 month positions.
private tutoring for 8 months
Now Currently looking for a job
Volunteer:
Currently applying for office administration position
So this is my profile so far.
Sfu has this stupid minimum 3 work term requirement for business co op which means that if I don't find any position, I will never graduate or I will be in school until I am 25 until I land 3 co op positions.
Should I just finish my courses and graduate or is there a chance that I land a position. I have only 9 courses left so that's approx 2 semesters worth.
Co-op advisors are useless and only tell me to apply. I asked them the same question and all they said is that it depends on the employers. WTF.
Please be brutally honest. | I only did 2 work terms via the co-op program. A lot of people I know only end up doing 1 or 2 and graduate without ever finishing that last co-op work term. Most people don't really care about having the co-op thingy show up on your transcript; I definitely don't.
Your chances depend on the company.... the advisers are right in saying that you should just apply. The first company I co-oped for did not care at all about GPA. Boss didn't even look at it when screening resumes and cover letters. Some companies don't care, some companies have a cut-off GPA, but if you don't apply you'll never know  . I would go for at least 1 co-op before you graduate because the job market is really tough right now. I have friends struggling to find jobs in their discipline/concentration even with 3 co-ops, so imagine how hard it would be if you had no relevant work experience!

Please be brutally honest. | What's your concentration? As some people have mentioned, your changes of landing a particular job depend on the employer but as long as you take the time to tailor your resume/cover letter and you're not shitty at interviews, you'll be able to get something.
Apply for co-op and do it. Very worthwhile. However the earliest you'll be able to do a placement will be September (seek in the Summer). Given your current situation, you'll most likely just work with one employer then finish off your undergrad with a couple of courses. I think the rule is that you must be enrolled in a course during your last undergrad semester. If you do decide to do co-op, make sure the course offerings in the next couple of semesters allow you to do so. The number of co-op terms isn't going to stop you from graduating.
Your GPA currently isn't going to prevent you from getting some benefits out of co-op. If you're that worried, beef up your resume with experience/volunteer work that highlight your skills and qualifications.
