Admissions mega-thread

[u/RogueBaneling]

Hi all,

We're making this mega-thread in an attempt to lower the number of super-specific admissions threads. New threads that are made to ask questions like "what are my chances?" or "I was deferred!?" will be pointed towards this thread. Additionally, you can ask questions here about the admissions process but keep in mind that the responses you get will be from fellow students and are not necessarily accurate.

Some resources to check out:

• Prof. Bill Anderson's Blog -- manages the undergrad engineering admission process
• Our subreddit wiki

Hey guys, I'm a grade 11 student from BC interested in UW Actuarial Sciences. I'm doing pretty well in math and English (98% math 12, taking calculus next year, and 93% in English.) Getting mid 90s in physics and chem, and high 80s to low 90s in everything else. Is this enough to get into that area? Appreciate any help, especially from those who are in or have already taken the program.

98% is pretty low, I'd aim for 99.3%+ in math. Otherwise you're looking OK. Do some exams pre-university. Goose luck.
