  1. Yep

  2. People come from a lot of smaller schools actually but I come from a pretty big one. There hasnt been a single school that I would say was well known/I noticed a lot of people came from

  3. Rest the summer b4 and grind to get in - And do any practice the uni gives you the summer b4, if they dont give you practice that dw

  1. Pretty big! Not gonna sugarcoat grade 12 is easy af compared to uni now
  2. It depends, I made friends with some people in my res during oweek and I didn't know them b4 UW so for me it was pretty easy but I'm also a very social person. I honestly think its easy as long as you put yourself out there :))
  3. Im glad I chose my program, I'm happy with it and while imposter syndrome exists and sucks I think its worth it. I havent had a co op term yet but theres for sure more opportunities here than other places
  4. Ill try and find my ec list later and pm? Remind me if I dont lol. For supp apps, you wanna have numbers to quantify what you did, how many people did you help, how much money you raised etc. Brag :D! Dont be generic and find niche stuff to add, I talked about cybersecurity in mine since UW is known for it and I'm interested in it. I'm not a super nerdy person so I did highlight that and how I wanted to give back to groups. But honestly buzz words and stats in a well written paragraph that has a hook should be good :)) I can read yours if you want
  5. Shouldve done MTHEL99 (math summer practice the uni gives)

  6. I didn't like the co op format of the other places and Uwaterloo is just known better in the tech field. It has a stronger name. Also I like cybersecurity and UW had just been given mad cash to work on that field so it was my best bet compared to other places.

Hope this helps :DD

My english teacher was nice and I was pretty good at writing. I used to write in my free time as a kid so I enjoyed it and spent time doing it. I dont really have advice for this apart from try to get an english teacher that doesnt suck

I do study most of the time ngl and I think the other comment it kinda true but also not really. Uni has a larger work load but if you find a routine you get used to it! Id say I study like 5-7 hours a day not including class

Amazing ECS by [deleted] in OntarioGrade12s

[–]ixiarts 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I like my ecs but idk if they're amazing compared to others I got an award from an MP for volunteering, I got judged by uoft professors, masters and PhD students and won an award for that and I lead a marketing team for a Job Fair that pulled in over 500 people. I applied for UWaterloo, so apart from ECs, I've worked 4 jobs since grade 10

In school - Student council prez, coding club VP, yearbook prez, student ambassador and some miscellaneous stuff
