Admission Canada

  • This has become our largest and most active forum because the physics GRE is just one aspect of getting accepted into a graduate physics program.
  • There are applications, personal statements, letters of recommendation, visiting schools, anxiety of waiting for acceptances, deciding between schools, finding out where others are going, etc.

it's harder to get into UBC and the University of Toronto than Manitoba or Western.

Also, it is very important (in Canada) to talk to a professor or two at the university you are applying to BEFORE you apply. Graduate admissions are a little different in Canada than the States, who you know and who knows you is very important.

what do you mean by bachelor 54%, master 73%. are they your GPAs?

as dmahler said, in CA its also probable that a professor admit you than admission committee.
