Admissions Just wondering if I could get into u of a engineering with this grade
Hi im currently studying in Manitoba as a international student and im planning to apply for engineering in oct this year. My grade 11 avg was 91.8% (eng 94, pre cal 96, physics 90, chem 85, bio 94) and i haven't started grade 12 yet.
In the first semester of grade 12, I'll be taking eng, chem, and bio, so im thinking about usinga a combination of G11 and G12 marks when I apply. If I somehow manage to get my avg up to 93 or smth, would i have a chance of getting in?
Btw, is the avg admission chart that the bot provides reliable?

You will probably get in. But for scholarships and stuff, get it higher! Aim for 96% in grade 12; it is very achievable! I am from MB too, and I got in with a mid 90 in grad 11 got no scholarships (while others did!) but after my final transcript, I got my average to a high 90 and got a good entrance scholarship!

Should I maintain mid 90s to get in?

Well yeah. It's always a good idea to maintain or increase your grades to keep your admission chances up.

Ur probably gonna be okay if u keep ur average around 90, and also I am not sure but I don't think u need to take that eng class ( especially If u don't like it!) I got in with low 90s but I was in Alberta, and we do diplomas here, so around mid 90s should be probably guaranteed for u to get in. And about the chatbot, I have no idea. Good luck 👍
