The system is a joke now, yes. We worked hard for our grades. I'm an odey. Things were much different then. People were easily entering competitive STEM programs then with 70-73.
especially since covid 19 and online schools became a thing it got 10 times worse. I knew plenty of people who had 96-99% averages in highschool getting denied to tough programs like comp sci.

My marks actually tanked during online school because I just couldn’t focus in class or didn’t even do assignments because it was so easy to get distracted.

Even today I have no idea how they were accepting people because grades had no factor apparently. I made it into uoft meanwhile my friend who had a much higher average got rejected lol. It was so funny seeing obnoxious kids with crazy averages getting knocked down a peg

Thanks for proving my point.

98% in Advanced Functions. No one in all of Ontario got 98% back then. Not 1 single person. I swear to God the average for that was in the high 60s or low 70s. What a joke the school system has become.

You’re just bitter that you were an underachiever in school, probably had to be put in behavioural classes 😂

Also my class average was in the high 70s at best, would you like me to show you my transcripts?

If it makes you feel any better there is inflation with marks, that doesn’t change the fact that I’m just smarter than you.

Serious question: Why do a lot of Canadians study abroad?

I knew a lot of Canadians at my university. I used to live with a lot in my dorm.

I mean I get why Americans come to Australia, as it’s cheaper than the states but why Canadians?

I made the honour roll every year and took all 4U classes.Only about like 5 or 6 of us made 80% and up honour roll in a home room class of around 30. The averages back then were mid to high 60s.

No one got 90 or above in Advanced Functions in my time. Ask anyone 10 years older than you. They will be more shocked than me that someone can get 100% in Advanced Functions. They will laugh so hard. Stop flexing because it's obvious the school system has gone to shit and I was correct in my suspicions.

They move there too. They go for adventure and the warm weather. I know a lot of former employees and classmates who are in Aus and Nz now. Maybe a dozen. Actually, a coworker of mine is moving to Aus in a few weeks. I thought they closed the borders?

How am I flexing when you’re the one who asked me and then tried to knock down my accomplishments lmao.

If I told you I got 70s and 80s you would have berated me for doing so bad despite an “easy system”. I tell you I get 90s and you’re telling me to not be so proud because the system is messed. No matter what I’d have told you you’d have a negative response. Tell me that’s not bitter, I’ll wait.

I don’t think it’s that common, probably just richer/upper class canadians doing that.

You're right. I was being negative.

Congratulations on your marks. Very impressive.

It’s open if you have a valid visa.

Or if you receive an exemption.
