Remember that when you apply, its VERY critical to do the supplementary well, because with an 83 or 84 average, it could be your best bet to beating another guy with an 86 average. The idea that UBC is harder school to be accepted to is just a mere illusion. by the way, I think I may know who you are, hit me up with a PM, i should be able to give you some tips.

UBC now requires a mandatory supplemental (personal profile) which is part of the application process. You have to finish that step before moving on and paying the fee.

Hey ForeverYours. To get into science for SFU, 87.5% IMO is very borderline especially for this year. Are you applying for early admission or just regular admission? If your first term grades average to an 87.5%, and you think you can get higher during 2nd term, I say just apply in April (or whenever they open). I've submitted my marks for early admission engineering and deeply regret as it's borderline, and I guarantee my 2nd term average will be 2-4% higher. Good luck, and maybe I'll see you in the fall.
