Last year they didn't accept students with 95% + for Sauder, on the other hand people will 86-88% got it in for some reason. All I can say is, get really high marks + do A LOT of extra-circulars so you can fill the application fully because there are 10 spaces for extra-circulars and another 10 for rewards.

lol are you sure it doesn't make a difference?
返到香港, 人地問你讀邊間大學... 如果話sfu... 好小人知到sfu係咩大學... 如果話ubc, D 人都會覺得你有番咁上下

"覺得" haha, yea because I know so many more people who deserve to be in UBC than those who were actually accepted, so technically "覺得" applies. Either way, people strive for the higher education at the "so-called" prestigious universities because employers, especially those outside BC "覺得" students that got into UBC is "so-called" superior to the others who didn't get in. A university degree is like the new high school diploma. With the amount of competition out there, trying to get into the "better" university may help boost your competitiveness when you graduate? I don't know, which university you get into definitely isn't the only determinate of how successful you will be.

who knows? maybe i'm the naive one.

agreed~ I swear, some of the TA's english might even be at an ESL level... their accents makes their english sound like @!#$##%#$%$%... if the TA's can't speak fluent english, why do the students need to speak fluent english?
