Quick question, out of sheer curiosity. To those accepted in the first round, did you take/are you presently taking Calculus (with Advanced Functions being somewhere in the mix)? Or did you go the Advanced Functions & Data Management route instead? Personally, I did make it in the first round having taken Advanced Functions in the previous semester and Calculus in the present, with a strong supplementary application.
Perhaps the Calculus v. Data Management debate serves as the basis for why certain applicants with mid to high averages in the 90s and strong supplementary applications did not make it in the first round, as Calculus was the "recommended" choice, unless of course I'm completely over thinking the process. Perhaps there was some influence of the different maths in the early admissions. Personally, I had AF last semester and both Data and Calculus this semester. Schulich BBA 2016

I took data and advanced functions last semester/year. I think you are overthinking I called in and they said they only assessed some of applicants yesterday, not all applicants. They've also said no more acceptances this week and the next round starts sometime in april.

For anyone else who's been accepted so far, has it changed on your OUAC? Or have you received an email? I find it kinda odd that it hasn't yet.

I took all three, but calculus is certainly not in my top 6 (as in, high 70s mark). So they had to take my data mark, which was my best mark. I don't know if they would have looked at calculus at all, but it certainly wasn't included in consideration for my average and I was accepted, so I'm assuming that's not the case.

Wow totally misinterpreted that question. lol It's going to be created by the student council and everyone is going to get linked to it at the enrollment appointments. It's very chill and serves the purpose you just mentioned. PM if you have any questions with regards to school, university, jobs, etc. I am glad to help out and share what I know.

Schulich definitely looked at my adv fun and data mark because my calculus mark is also a high 70. I did data in summer school and I repeated advanced functions in semester one. Lol all their policies worked in favour of me. (accepting repeated and accepting data. xD)

But I'm in a non-semestered school so they had to take my current data mark.
