Instantneedles -

Her first couple of years, she couldn't figure out exactly what she wanted to do. She was just getting by, but she was primarily in Sciences. She then got her degree in Bachelor of Science (Integrated degree of animal mechanism and something else i forget, with her last 2 years having A, and a few B's)... after that she got a job as a physio assisant. After a year of working, she decided to get her Kin degree @ sfu where she pretty much getting A's in about 4 terms now.

From her understanding after talking to someone that finally got into UBC Physio, they pretty much won't let you in even if you have great marks. They said they want someone who's matured a little bit and been through it. So chances are, you'll need to apply a couple of times.

But you should have read the reference letter than her former employer gave her - who is a physio and who also is a member in the board of physio or whatever it is - ... it was VERY WELL written. that letter alone should have gotten her in.

UBC is bullshit and highly overrated with professors just there to do their research and don't care about the students - make sure you get straight A's in everything otherwise you're screwed. You're better off going to SFU where's it's a little more easier with less students in a class.
