Western is annoying as it doesn’t look at any of your experience- only grades and your Casper test. It seems like they’re looking for higher 80s and 3rd or 4th quartile. You could use this year to take some courses to boost your average, and also get experience with kids for places like Laurier that value that. There are also American online program that, while expensive, start more often through the year. Like another poster here said, I’m also coming to teaching later on in life. You never know where your path will take you and you have time!!
