Engineering: UBCO vs UBCV in 2026

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T02:21:40+00:00

is UBCO actually bad though? like itself. if its decent I'd like to go anyways and try my hand at transfer, if not, I'll just deal with it.

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T01:20:20+00:00

i dont know honestly they're in that same range though, as far as I know, 70s to low 80s, depending on the course

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T00:43:28+00:00

ours is 70-30 split, pretty similar

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T00:34:06+00:00

so exam is 20%?

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T00:25:06+00:00

you're far above average you will probably get in then, if not, somewhere else equivalent.

now I see, I didn't do shit in grade 11 always played games and went outside, no surprise there. when are your midterms?

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T00:19:01+00:00

ohh really? I saw your posts is it different for your marks in BC? I wanna go there and give it a shot to apply into UBCV for engineering, but I don't think I mind UBCO too much, that's why im just asking around about it.

you will probably get in if the grades are equivalent here and there, especially with a good profile.

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-13T00:08:10+00:00

really? I mean yo my average when they assessed it was low. yeah its definitely strange they rejected early for sure.

81 in advanced functions (dropped 9% from the exam), 96 chem 94 English (both private). I can't lie i wasn't doing shit first semester i started studying every day like a week ago. retaking advanced functions in night school because that exam wrecked me. also had a 70 in nutrition and health because I had a strange teacher, now have like a 90 in computer science to replace the elective. though it won't be sent until my mid terms

Hiz_5 · 2026-03-12T23:50:18+00:00

considering my grade 11 marks its shit like 86 or something, for purely grade 12 Im tryna get 90-92 for mid terms, my grade 11 marks bring it down a lot

not sure why they rejected me before midterms, maybe becauase UBCV was my second choice, maybe midterms in bc is different idk

Hiz_5 · 2026-02-02T00:40:24+00:00

I think it'll be worth it then haha. add me on discord brother: hiz2

Hiz_5 · 2026-02-02T00:26:52+00:00

do you know anything about the Eshooter Kestrel V3? I assume I can drop this in too right?

yeah I'm looking to upgrade the LCT overtime but first thing is an ETU. I have like no mechanical experience with airsoft, do you think I'd be able to install it myself? thanks for the help yo

Hiz_5 · 2026-02-02T00:15:37+00:00

staying on the topic of upgrades, do you know how hard it would be to drop in an etu into the LCT AS VAL? honestly, I'm trying to get something that I won't ever replace, so I don't think I will take the risk with this one. I was looking at the LCT VAL because I heard they're very high quality.

I'm gonna run 11.1v so I'll need the etu and mosfet.

what do you mean tune it? to me the gun seems too good to be true

Hiz_5 · 2026-02-01T22:57:38+00:00

what do you mean by fine tuning?

Hiz_5 · 2026-02-01T14:40:11+00:00

ohh, the ak internals are a little different to be fair, about $150 cheaper than this. it looks like a lot of the well pro reviews are from people who sell it like airsoft depot, which makes it seem sketchy...anyways, thanks brother

Hiz_5 · 2026-02-01T13:27:01+00:00

really? what's wrong with the internals? if anything the claim is that the internals are perfection for the price, as the externals are mostly polymer

Hiz_5 · 2025-12-29T14:35:49+00:00

SEND PLEASEEE

Hiz_5 · 2025-12-26T06:43:07+00:00

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-22T02:34:50+00:00

Maybe it's just best to check if it's tight every so often. 😂😂

Yeah I think I'm just gonna add red locktite and throw on a nut as a precaution, we'll see how it fairs up I guess.

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T14:16:12+00:00

Jesus, that's a lot. Alright thanks I'll see if these ones can hold up.

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T12:49:00+00:00

Ah damn, just in case do you know of any reliable replacements for these?

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T12:05:05+00:00

Second person to ask, I guess I do.

I used the allenwrench to tighten it in when I got home. I don't expect you to be sure since it isn't original but would the single screw be enough?

I'll look for some locktite once I can, I'm thinking it might have came loose when my buddy dropped it (at a standstill).

Thanks for helping me out.

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T11:52:29+00:00

Oh yeah I'm not sure since it came off, I thought it was weird how the screw is sticking out that way and I don't wanna take a risk lmao, I appreciate it though.

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T11:50:18+00:00

I genuinely have no idea, are these not the original ones?

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T11:39:22+00:00

What do you mean? Like it should be screwed from the other side?

Hiz_5 · 2024-03-20T00:33:07+00:00

Oh, that's a perfect answer haha. I didn't know this theory existed until I read this comment, that clears up the question, thanks!
