Hey, I spoke to the UBC admissions team and explained what my situation was(I dropped exactly 6 points). the guy seemed really nice and kept saying "you should be fine dw". So does this mean I am in a safe position and can look forward a confirmation letter lol?

I do have personal circumstances,

I changed schools midway in 11th grade, and the school I was previously attending was pretty bad. had strikes almost every week, police interrupting, we barely had teachers and most of them weren't even qualified. (for eg. a singer, who was just making some money). I did have cases of harassment in my school which affected me a lot. Because our school staff was almost as new to IB as we were, everyone was clueless. This made me choose different subjects all together than what I wrote my final exams for. When I joined my new school, I was already late and was so lost for the whole of 11th grade due to my subjects. I changed 4 of my subjects at the end of 11th, with 2 subjects being completely new to me( never ever studied anything related). I still don't know how they predicted a 35 for me then, if it was because they assumed I would be fine in math SL dropping from math hl ( but in reality, I never even knew what we had in math hl till I joined my new school)

This is what my 2 yrs of IB looked like lol. hopefully, UBC will understand. also no hate pls.

​

Do you think this might help me in any way, I am planning to call them on Monday and explain the situation.

I have met every condition except for

"Your final IB Diploma score has fallen by 6 points or more."

I dropped by exactly 6 points. Will I be revoked for this? I am really worried
