<p>Here on this page it says that you are required to take TWO years of Chemistry or AP Chem or TWO years of physics or AP Physics(for engineering)....is this true? I really wanted to apply here next year. My school does not offer AP Chem or Physics (or 2 years of regular chem or physics), and at graduation I will have taken only one year of both. I ask to confirm because I have read stat posts about some admits from the US and it did not sound like they had these. That would be a shame as from their recommended test scores it looked like I had a good shot.</p>
<p>In cases like this, it is best to email or call the admissions office of the school directly. They will be your best source of information. Explain your situation to them and ask what you might do to meet the requirements if your school does not offer them. It might be possible to take the classes at a community college or in another way but ask the University of British Columbia directly to get the most definite and reliable answer. Do not rely on responses here for information like this --- go right to the source.</p>
<p>girl from my class will be going to UBC next year. she took biology, honors chem, and physics.. one year each.. none were AP.. i dont think it was a problem for her, im not sure how she got around that requirement, but obviously it must be possible, so dont sweat.</p>
<p>Spetsnaz: I looked at the UBC link you provided. The requirements you referred to are those for Engineering. Unless you are applying for Engineering, it looks like you'll be alright with what you have.</p>
<p>Yeah...I was thinking of engineering..i'll just contact them.</p>
<p>Ok I found their USA student PDF and they say Chemistry and Physics are both required. No mention of AP or not so it must mean just normal. I made this post just in case someone else searches in the future..this is for Engi</p>
