HermeyTheElf Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Hey, just found out I got early acceptance to UWO. I will be accepting as I didn't apply anywhere else. Anyone else get early acceptance to UWO who WILL be taking up the offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sj88 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 If you're a Western student, you can log into your student centre.. there is a box for your Applications and if you did get in there should be a green checkmark showing that you got admitted (that made me feel better lol). Congrats! oo haha thats good you have the confirmation i am not a western student, but i e-mailed Trish about a week ago asking her when early acceptances would be coming out this year, and she actually e-mailed back yesterday evening and started by saying, "did you enjoy your e-mail this morning?!" - lol - so i think its safe to say the e-mail was for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hangma Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 I'm just wondering. Which university gives you an average of 97-98% for 2 years? I go to UofT St.George campus. I can never pull that off in my dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling if i get in at all i'm going to be right at the cutoff, or off the waitlist. i need to get off of these boards before i have an anxiety attack!

I can never pull that off in my dream. I'm not sure it's about the school...I graduated from high school with a 98% and have kept up a 97% all throughout my 4 yrs. That being said, I obviously don't expect to keep this average up in dental school:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soaring-sun Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 wow 97 is high I had 92% in high school but dropped to low-mid 80s. If you got those marks from U of T, i would be REALLY REALLY impressed because I know how impossibly-hard it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

human instinct Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 wow congrats guys..with stats like 97%,it would be fair to think that some of the 90s have been left behind...although i hope not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 90+ average (actually 91% in first year and I am in second year right now but expecting 90+ because only finals are left) and AA is 21. Keeping my fingers crossed for June.

smilee Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Anyone else get early acceptance to UWO who WILL be taking up the offer? I'm 99% sure I'll be accepting UWO! It's too bad though, I already put down my deposit at U of T.. it arrived in Toronto an hour before the e-mails from UWO were sent out lol..

HermeyTheElf Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 In which school you are as I really want to know which school is giving such a high marks? I go to the University of Guelph and I know people are likely going to put down my school (believe me, I've heard my fair share of farm jokes), but I really want to clarify that this isn't the "norm" at my school. I don't personally know of anyone else here who had anything higher than an average in the low 90's (and she just recieved a prestigious NSERC scholarship for microbiology). Most classes keep an average of 65-75%, I think this is pretty standard. That said, I'm sure different schools have different policies about marks. I know that if you get 99% or 100% in a course at UofG the prof is allowed to give you that mark (they need not "bell curve" the scores to keep you out of the high 90's range). I'm sure UofT is very tough (as I've noticed a couple of people have posted) and I likely wouldn't have gotten this average there, but that said Guelph is no "bird" school. I really felt that I got a full and sufficient education here. As you might be able to tell, I have a strong passion for my school and thus I was apprehensive to post where I was from (I figured UofG might get ridiculed and put-down, as I've noticed these forums can become pretty competitive). It's a really wonderful place (so condusive to learning and succeeding) and I'm really going to miss it next year. However, my hometown is near London and so I'm very looking forward to going home. Alright, enough about my life story...where is this facebook group, lol?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eebee Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 No need to defend yourself! A 97/98 is FANTASTIC wherever you go. People here are either jealous or really just shocked! It's an amazing accomplishment. That being said, someone needs to start the fbook group because it's not going to create itself, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's true, I have to agree with that - that's really impressive, even when one only has ONE course to take, and were to spend their entire time studying for that course, some people still will not be able to pull of a 98%. With a 98%, you obviously have excelled (actually, not excelled...just inhumanly destroyed!) at straight forward MC tests tricky MC tests designed so the average will be C+ that require good clear thinking under preasure lab reports small group projects presentations essays humanities/social sciences courses where you are marked on participation tests that are recall/memory tests that are short-answer/creative/application ORGO II There are so many hurdles in undergrad, as listed above, that I am just blown away from your average... That's not fantastic, that's F'd! .....In a good way!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
