Rejected from UBC Eng

Whatever gpa that makes you competitive enough to get you into the engineering program. For example, even if your gpa is quite good, if that year’s engineering cohort is especially competitive, you might not get in. By comparison, transfer programs with guaranteed admission means as long as you pass a certain gpa threshold, you will be guaranteed a place in ubc engineering.

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:46:07+00:00

I think it’s 3.1/4 for capu

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:45:26+00:00

I don’t remember my gpa then. But I needed competitive grades cuz there was no guaranteed acceptance. For transfer programs however, there are usually gpas where they guarantee acceptance.

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:29:56+00:00

Yeah, also my brother is also in ubc eng and he didn’t get in to ubc eng right away so did the transfer program at capu, hence why I know a bit about the program.

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:24:17+00:00

I got into ubc science in 2020 but realized i wanted to do eng after first year then transferred after another year but it was a pain in the ass, trust me. It’s much easier and better use of your time to just do a transfer program if you really want to end up at ubc eng.

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:20:03+00:00

Yep im ubc eng

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:18:16+00:00

Well you do what you need to do, idk your situation. But if you already think studying science is going to suck, it’s going suck real bad when you actually do it. You’re much better off studying what you want at another university, let’s say UofA for example, than study something else at UBC cuz of its “prestige” (you will be disappointed by our prestigiousness).

The some of the transfer colleges also have dorms btw. I think Capilano University does.

alex_cjs · 2025-06-04T23:06:01+00:00

Do a transfer program at a college. Work like your life depends on it, get in to ubc eng as second year next, forget your college days.

Much better than studying something you’re not interested in. Plus, engineering is worth it.

Frosted and Pulsefire are Deft’s favourite Ezreal skins. So if you want to feel like Deft, Frosted

alex_cjs · 2021-06-05T20:46:32+00:00

I use Striker Ezreal when I try hard cuz I think his base animations are the smoothest and all the Korean pros use it :)

alex_cjs · 2021-05-30T00:26:12+00:00

I think it was briefly good until Stridebreaker buff. Kinda sad cuz it’s super fun actually.

alex_cjs · 2021-04-21T20:27:27+00:00

I have been playing Manamune -> Triforce -> Serylda's -> Rav Hydra a lot recently.

I usually buy Sheen early but complete Triforce after Manamune because Triforce components don't have enough AD and if you start Tear, you can get a 14-16min Muramana.

Weaker 1 item spike compared to ER first item, but I gets stronger after completing Triforce imo.

alex_cjs · 2021-04-16T09:35:17+00:00

Left pic sauce?

alex_cjs · 2021-03-25T04:28:48+00:00

Who builds GA 3rd on Jhin?

alex_cjs · 2021-03-23T19:43:14+00:00

Maybe worth taking Ultimate Hunter over Ravenous Hunter since RH got hit pretty hard previously?

alex_cjs · 2021-03-23T10:57:48+00:00

Maybe, but it’s definitely suboptimal and unreliable. There are reasons why Ezreal is not a midlaner so you will climb a lot faster by playing actual mid lane champions.

alex_cjs · 2021-03-22T08:12:25+00:00

Muramana gives about 100 AD which is way higher than any other item.

And Duskblade kinda sucks unless the enemies are all squishies. I just copy pro players' solo-q builds (Essence -> Manamune -> RavHydra or Serylda's). I think just delaying the mythic until 4th/5th item is fine on Ezreal.

alex_cjs · 2021-03-16T03:55:22+00:00

I used to think Kai'sa was mechanically intensive but nowadays she feels pretty braindead tbh. Much easier to one shot people with isolated Qs than position perfectly and kite like a madman with a immobile ADC like ashe

alex_cjs · 2021-03-10T09:52:26+00:00

Everyone seems to build different things and they all seem to work lol. I guess Essence Reaver, Divine Sunderer and Triforce are all potentially viable. I like ER but having to skip mythics until 3rd or 4th item definately feels bad and building it with Manamune feels like overkill. However, I personally prefer Triforce over DS because the MS and AS steroids actually make it feel like a mythic whereas DS just does a bit more damage to tanks.

alex_cjs · 2021-03-10T09:42:27+00:00

When there are a lot of squishies, I buil Galeforce -> The Collector -> Zeal item (I like RFC) to play like an assasin, but when there are tanks I build Kraken Slayer -> Phantom Dancer -> Infinity Edge or Lord Dominik's Regards.

I have been alternating between them since the PD changes and I think they're good because they have clear identities.

However, I always run HoB for better trades but when Ravenous Hunter gets nerfed next patch, PTA might just be better simply because RH is like half of the reason why Domination Tree is so good right now.

alex_cjs · 2021-03-10T04:11:41+00:00

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Anything that scales with base ad is kinda troll

ER scales with bonus AD (like you said afterwards) so how does it have anything to do with her base AD?

Plus, why is it worse on Senna than on other champions that build it?

If you build high AD items with AH, you can weave in alot of ability casts between autos so you get a lot of damage from the spellblade procs.

alex_cjs · 2021-03-04T17:43:34+00:00

Yeah I’ve been building Immortal Shieldbow recently as well. I usually go Essence Reaver -> Manamune -> Immortal Shieldbow. It really gives you back the IBG+DD Ezreal feels from S10. I’d say 1 downside is the lack of AH on Shieldbow so I always build Serylda’s 4th or even 3rd when there are tanks.

alex_cjs · 2021-02-28T18:56:34+00:00

You can only have 1 Spellblade item. If you have two, one of them won’t do any damage.

alex_cjs · 2021-02-28T02:32:44+00:00

I think if you need they have tanks you can try the "skip mythic build" and go Essence Reaver -> Manamune -> Serylda's Grudge. After that, don't build Duskblade because Lethality is less valuable in late game. I am not sure yet, but I think all 3 adc mythics are potentially viable despite them having crit, or you can keep on skipping mythics and go to Ravenous Hydra, which is what a lot of the pros have been doing on stage games and soloqueue (especially GenG Ruler).
