r/AlbertaGrade12s

[removed]

I totally understand others have asked almost this exact question but just curious. My first semester has math 20-1 and bio 20 along with 2 electives. My second is chem 20 and english 20-1 with 1 elective and a spare. (i took social in the summer). I’m wondering how people’s experiences have been taking a 30 level class in grade 11 and how it affects university admission. Main reason i’d take bio 30 is to clear up space in my schedule for calculus in grade 12.

I’m aiming to apply for biology at the beginning of next year but i’m slightly worried that having a harder class will cause my 20 level grades to drop. Any insight on how it’s affected anyone’s grades or admission to university?

Guys it’s says they come out 21st does that mean they come out a day earlier like tmrw or tonight at 12 cause I heard they come out a day earlier

just got my schedule for the school year, social 20-1, english 20-1, chem 20, bio 20, bio 30, and math 30-1.

i need tips on how to prepare for the upcoming year because i didn’t do much to get myself ready over the summer. I specifically need advice on Chem 20 and Bio 20 asap because those are my semester 1 classes. Genuinely do NOT know how to study proper and I feel like I am FRIED.

Ela 30-1 = 75
Math 30-2 = 89
Chem 30 = 70
Art 30 = 96
PE 30 = 84
Physics 30 = 88
Social 30-1 =29 69

Im trying to have a laid back grade 12 year so I'm only taking two cores each semester.. nothing else.. no quarter subjects too. I have 102 credits and the only graduation requirement I have to complete now is ELA 30. (I also need to get a job :p). Do yall think I could do this or would my counsellor force me to fill up some of my spares

You can see what courses you have in each semester (not blocks or teachers yet) in your detailed academic report on mypass

Idk it worked for me so hopefully you guys as well if your school hadn't released them yet <3

Hello!

I am now a much older UofA alumni graduating from pharmacy school back in 2018. I now have 2 little kids one is about to enter Kindergarten next year.

I am just wondering how many of you went into Charter school or cogito school and if it was helpful to where you guys are at today. !

Thanks and good luck to you all!

With this whole referendum thing coming…

Does that mean international students for any universities outside of Alberta?

Will it make u of c even harder to get into or easier because of less out of province students?

So I got waitlisted from both engineering and bsc at University of Alberta with a 88 avg

Chem: 95
Physics: 90
Math 30-1: 87
Math 31: 92
English: 76

What do I even do now, this is so stupid. I literally heard someone got into bsc with a 86 avg a couple weeks ago.

Engineering was my first option and bsc was second.

What are the chances I get into each program now????

Hello,

I am like really really bad at english, and in 20 I was only able to get like a 72. Is there any advice anyone could provide for how to succeed in the course, and how to write great crts and prts?? I am really scared that I wont be able to improve my mark.

Just posting for any future grade 12s, I got into UAlberta BioSci with around an 89.8 average at the very end (just this week). I am not attending UofA as I got in for a better program with a higher average (UofA takes different options). Incase you're applying for the program and want an estimate!

Has anyone gotten their diploma certificate pls. When do u receive it.

Hey, I’m going into Grade 12 in Alberta (Class of 2027) and want a realistic read on my admission chances for a Bachelor of Science in Psychology at the U of A and MacEwan. End goal is med school or dentistry, so I’m treating this as a pre-med/pre-dent track.

Averages:

•    Overall average: ~86.6%
•    30-level admission average tracking ~88% so far (2 of 5 courses done)

30-level marks so far (what admission is based on):

•    Chem 30 – 92
•    Math 30-1 – 84 (took it in summer school to get ahead; diploma pending)

Earlier marks for context:

•    French 20-1 – 89
•    Bio 20-1 – 86
•    English 20-1 – 82
•    Math 20-1 – 80

Grade 12 schedule:

•    Sem 1: English 30-1, Physics 20, Social 30-1, Math 30-1
•    Sem 2: Bio 30, Math 31, Physics 30, French 30

My five 30-level courses for admission will be English 30-1, Math 30-1, Bio 30, Chem 30, and Physics 30.

Given these marks, how competitive am I for BSc Psychology at each school? And does Psychology make sense as a pre-med/pre-dent degree, or should I look at Bio Sciences instead to line up better with med/dental prerequisites? Thanks!

Hey! Does anybody know any business related opportunities for high school students. It doesn’t even have to be related to business like just any programs, camps, etc.. I’ve been struggling with finding some! Help would be greatly appreciated.

lowk guys im kinda scared. I don't know, just thought I'd share. Anyone whos been through or currently going through this feeling is welcome to share

My application has been under review for the past 3-4 days while my friends who submitted their applications after me have already heard back last week. Should I just wait it out or call them?
