<p>UBC: Low match/Match</p>

<p>For U Toronto, come back here after you indicated potential major(s)… I know many successful applicants to U Toronto were in the top third in their high school classes (and a valedictorian definitely is one; looks like your school is as hard-grading as an average Alberta or Quebec high school) but what SAT scores are asked from applicants depend on the major.</p>

3

<p>the major his friend wants is B.Sc in bio or bio related major and the friend is valedictorian of his class</p>

<p>(hahahahaha lollll yassin)</p>

4

<p>U Toronto: Reach (I am not sure at all whether it’s a reach or a high reach, but what I am sure about is that life sciences is in the reach range)</p>

5

<p>@wissam25 well there you have it</p>

6

<p>U Toronto: reach
UBC: match (im not too sure about this though)</p>

7

<p>what should be improved for high matches with both universitites</p>

8

<p>SAT score, more ECs. Bump those up</p>

9

<p>More ECs is advice that is only applicable at UBC; even so, after a certain point, any additional EC will not do much for a student.</p>

<p>If one wanted to improve on the SAT, aim for 31+/2100+.</p>

<p>thank you, and will do</p>
