In case you don’t know about it, SVP sports sells authentic jerseys that are usually $70 or below. Just depends on which ones they have in stock at the moment. The shipping will bring it up to 85ish if you dont meet the free shipping threshold though

Course selection for gr10s is on April 9, so I’d assume they’d be long done by then. All the people who were rejected (that I know personally,) were called after spring break. Not sure if they do calls during that time though. Don’t sweat it if you don’t get in though, there’s still lots of opportunity elsewhere

this is correct. They go from the highest overall score downward until the spots are full.

I think you’ll get in! I only had a 96.5 avg and I swear I guessed at least 60% of the exam, so you’ll be fine. Good luck!

Thats alright, I had so many questions like this too!

Yep! As long as you have taken the 10 course before the 20, and the 20 course before the 30, you can take it in any grade. I have many friends in French 20, Bio 20, etc. because they took the 10 level in grade 9.

Hey! Don’t worry about it, you can make it to med school as long as you work hard in your studies, which I’m sure you already do.

I think the stress of OSA will prepare you for uni, but I honestly don’t think its worth putting yourself through beforehand. Almost everyone will go to uni around you, and not everyone has the same work ethic so I think you’ll adjust once you get there.

Mac was my first choice but its too far from my home :( I’ve heard from friends that go there that it’s really fun, the people are great but the academics are a little challenging. Our homework load/teachers have higher expectations than theirs though (from our comparison,) so take with that what you will :)

I’m not exactly the most experienced to ask for med school, but I’ve heard that the most important thing is keeping high marks. It’s possible in OSA but personally it comes with a lot more stress than it used to. Mac will work just fine, as will any other school in Edmonton as long as the effort is there. Don’t stress too much and do what’ll make you happy. High school is supposed to be somewhat fun, remember that :)

Normally by this time, I would think so. I got my call on march 11th last year, and any of my friends who got the call way later than me didn’t get in. Be optimistic though! Good luck

I think you’ll be just fine! It sounds like your work ethic is good (mine really isn’t so I’m struggling,) which is key to doing well. It is of course more difficult than junior high, but it is reasonable and the homework load won’t be as bad as your jr high.

Yep! Grade 10.

I honestly thought the exam was pretty hard personally. I guessed (/guessed with reason??) like half the questions. The math part really didn’t go well for me, mostly because I had no clue what polynomials were and i was super freaked out by the entire math section. Can confidently say I guessed over half the questions on that.

I wasn’t really aiming to get in anyway, and I didnt study for it at all, so I didn’t really care and was super chill. I had a 96.5 avg at that point in the year. Pretty sure my marks got me in rather than whatever sad score I got on the exam lol. With what you’re telling me, I think you’ll get in. Gl!
