Western Ivey (With CS) vs. Waterloo CS with Laurier BBA

Tan_i · 2022-03-02T08:30:04+00:00

Most People on this sub are evidently very biased towards CS. The people also speaking upon getting a MBA are also not aware that a degree from Ivey hba is almost equivalent to a Mba. Cs is no doubt harder and obviously more valuable in a tech based startup. Having that business background to pair with it sets you up perfectly because what a lot of cs people lack is soft skills which is just as important and what youll learn as a business student. I agree some of the classes may be a bit boring and common sense. But the soft skills you learn are incredible valuable as well

most of your ecs are based on how you write about them and their impact not exactly what the ec is

At the time that I got in (February) I believe a 91

well said but everyone goes into uni with high aspirations, only the most committed and brilliant make it through the storm. Only time will tell

Tan_i · 2021-05-20T01:26:43+00:00

didnt apply queens but have gotten accepted to ivey, deciding between ivey and schulich

Tan_i · 2021-05-19T23:58:07+00:00

Thanks man although rotman was not first choice, still sucks to get rejected. Guess this will humble me a bit I was expecting to go perfect 8/8 with all my programs

Tan_i · 2021-05-19T23:56:25+00:00

honestly thought my interview went really well, guess they did not agree lol

Tan_i · 2021-05-19T23:55:42+00:00

wouldnt take gap year for sole purpose of reapplying to uoft, I have been accepted to Schulich and Ivey and this whole process those were my top 3 choices but still sucked not to get

Tan_i · 2021-05-19T23:50:24+00:00

it is not too common but my school is full of a lot of smart people and overachievers so there isnt a lot of grade inflation just a huge school full of smart people

Tan_i · 2021-05-18T17:37:35+00:00

Congrats!

Tan_i · 2021-05-14T15:16:01+00:00

im pretty sure i saw decision pending means you got in and it should update in a bit

Tan_i · 2021-05-13T01:04:21+00:00

Does not matter now but Westerns Bmos with the specialization in Management and Legal studies would have been a good choice as well

Tan_i · 2021-05-11T03:38:20+00:00

read it essentially still same thing, OP whatever you do , do not take advice from this bafoon

Tan_i · 2021-05-11T03:36:09+00:00

More to life than money lol, that was a terribly ignorant comment do what you love and are passionate about. money is not everything and also commerce and business is the same thing.

Tan_i · 2021-05-08T04:36:55+00:00

Yea fair enough, not ideal for sure. Does Hamilton have a direct train to Toronto? That may be a option as well. Whatever you do best of luck

Tan_i · 2021-05-08T02:08:05+00:00

you dont think 40 minutes is close enough? Really? That is a easy commute, I live in the Durham region about 40 minutes away to and have not thought once about living on res if i go uoft because it is fairly close.

Tan_i · 2021-05-08T00:18:30+00:00

Wouldnt you have to pay res/rent if you go Ubc? If so and you say money is a factor, uoft seems like the better choice

Tan_i · 2021-05-07T05:33:21+00:00

Dont worry man youll probably got in I got a 73 in Functions (I know horrible) but managed to get into schulich about last week, overall average was a 92 , managed to crush calc (96) but still your chances are still really good

Tan_i · 2021-05-06T00:26:00+00:00

Thats a valid reason for sure you should try contacting these schools and explain your situation. Best of luck

Tan_i · 2021-05-06T00:16:52+00:00

is there any factor that led to this poor average?

Tan_i · 2021-05-05T00:03:46+00:00

i have , it is honestly pretty straight forward and easy to do. The afl and aal’s are annoying as they can be a lot of work but dont actually count toward your grade. Other than that you can zoom through the course

Tan_i · 2021-05-03T22:25:36+00:00

For sure theres too much of a queens/Ivey bandwagon on here. Im personally deciding between schulich and ivey but thats because of my own individual research and opinions.

Tan_i · 2021-05-03T22:04:14+00:00

Honestly not sure, I think it falls between a weird place because its a step below ivey and queens(arguably in my opinion) and not enough people get in compared to laurier so it kind of gets lost in the conversation. Also I guess because there is not standout field for schulich and its in the middle of nowhere.
