<p>I’m applying for the Faculty of Science for fall 2015. I have a 3.93 GPA, SAT 1840/ ACT 31. </p>

<p>However, I haven’t taken high school physics. I never could fit it in my schedule. I’ve taken honors biology and honors chem, though, along with 5 AP classes. Is my lack of physics going to hurt my chances of getting into the science program (I want to go into environmental chem so I didn’t even consider not having physics as a problem until now)?</p>

<p>I just checked the UBC site: <a href=“http://you.ubc.ca/admissions/international-curricula/american-curricula/”>http://you.ubc.ca/admissions/international-curricula/american-curricula/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>There’s a bit there that says “The Physics requirement may be waived with grades of A in Senior Level Math and Senior Level Chemistry.”</p>

<p>I guess that answers your question! :)</p>
