BTA3O1 - Information and Communication Technology


Hello! I am a sophomore going into Grade 11 this September.

Does anyone take this course? If so, I'm thinking of changing my next year courses for this course. Is it easy or hard? Is it worth to take? What mark did you achieve? Any pros and cons? AND: Would it help me get into university?

A bit about myself: I'm into web design and web management. I might go into a business oriented program, computers or mathematics.

So they would ignore course choices too?

Yes, even if you get 101% in this course, universities aren't gonna give a crap.

Regarding the marks, would taking this course help me with my program?

Would it give me an advantage for any of these?
