@ Dhillion09: I'm Asian LOL my parents think college = failure, and they've brainwashed me in thinking so too. I know it's not, but I guess it's better to aim high, than to do a transfer from Langara or BCIT.

If anyone else can contribute, that would help a lot, thanks!
I know I'm late to the thread but here's my experience...


I got into SFU Science with a 86% high school average.

I cruised through HS and probably could have done a lot better if I tried. Shit got real when I got into SFU though. (I was also retarded for taking CMPT, ECON, CALC and I think PHIL in the first semester)

Ended up on academic probation and eventually got kicked out.

I was NOT ready for university. It was like day and night compared to HS. HS was a joke.

I ended up going to Kwantlen not really doing anything and took a year off. Time off helped me to decide to go to BCIT for marketing management and now I have a decently paying job but only a diploma.

I'm planning on going back to BCIT for my BBA. I would have preferred to go back to SFU or UBC to finish it off however my first year CGPA fucked me over. I'd have to spend my next two years raising my CGPA on 3/4th level courses if I want to graduate within my timeframe, which is pretty hard. SFU/UBC also only accepts half the credits I completed at BCIT so I'd have to take some courses over again.

Long story short, I can't get a BBA from SFU/UBC without struggling to raise CGPA because I fucked up in first year. So make sure you're prepared for university and the workload.
