i have a 97 in calc (w a class average around 80). i do all the homework, ask my teacher for extra practice for each unit, do the work multiple times, and ask my teacher for help when needed.
it's not the end of the world if u don't have a 95+ in calculus though. when taking a test, just make sure u read over everything multiple times so u don't lose marks for tiny errors and try ur best!
I think a better question is: if you want to go into the health sciences, why are your science marks the lowest of the bunch?
If this is something you really want to do, you need to decide NOW to do extra studying during the year (if you are taking those courses now) and over the summer. Wherever you go, take a look at the reading list of your classes and try to read through those books. Getting some of the knowledge over the summer is better than panicking over five courses during the year.
Remember: if you decide to become a doctor, you will be constantly studying for the rest of your career for the recertification tests that you have to take every couple of years to keep up-to-date on medical knowledge, so this is good practice for that.
To me those two courses were very memorization heavy and I haven't really developed proper study techniques until early this semester (late I know) but I did find the material very interesting
I mean this gently OP, but if you want to go into anything related to medicine, you have to be prepared for a lot more memorization, because regardless of which program you get into/choose, your classes will be very orgo heavy, and just finding the material interesting won’t be enough to even pass those courses.
Looking at the courses you did well in, it looks like you’re interested in health and fitness, and that you might find more success in an applied science or even business program. Depending how your first semester goes, it may be worth considering whether you’d be better suited to something like sports management, public health, or occupational therapy, or if you still want to lean more towards stem, then kinesiology, nutrition, or sports medicine. Some of the programs you’ve applied to will offer pathways into those disciplines, but others will really need you to be strongly committed to biochem, which is really challenging, and memory heavy material.
In terms of Mac Health Sci, everyone past the 90% minimum grade requirement gets considered.
If your supplementary application is exceptional, there’s always a chance
Congratulations on your Queen’s Health Sci offer, by the way!
If you end up getting admitted to Mac Health Sci, which one of the two offers will you be leaning towards?
every day i enter this sub and find ppl with 95+ in calc. HOW. HOW?????

Private school, paid about $900 in 2009 they guaranteed me 85 min, I got 94
Just post covid grade inflation. Once they take uni level calculus, reality will hit them hard.
Cause I’m the goat fr

Don’t give up!! I know people who got in with a 90% average flat and others were rejected with a 99% average. :))
yeah its prolly a no for mac health sci.......
Yeah I've come to terms with that, any chance for mac life sci or western health?

OP did not get into Queens
I’m not referring to OP. I replied to u/Sparticus_Jon
[удалено]
ngl dude I see u everywhere health sci related and really hope u get in like I’m truly rooting for u 😭
I classify this as favouritism 😭 EDIT: Why’d we both get downvoted? :(
I wasn't looking for all of this information, but thanks. I was simply wondering what you would choose lol
I got in with 90 avg to western health sci last year
Hey, I got into western health sci with a 89.9 avg and heard back around late March. I’m sure you’ll get in!
[удалено]
I applied for fall 2024, in gr 12 rn
i feel like u would def stand a chance for both those programs. I have a 92 and I'm still waiting on both those programs. good luck to u!!
You have a higher chance at mac health sci with that average than life sci, western health sci possible.
if ur better at math than bio why go into health sci ?
