With the current marks you have, or around mid 80s. You will most likely not get into Ivey, Queens, McGill, Schulich, and Rotman.

Go for Ottawa or Carleton. I think its better than Laurier or McMaster. Or consider UTSC Management.

Laurier is a good school to apply to, Haskyne @ University of Calgary is also pretty decent at the low 80s-mid 80s.

If you can pull to to 85-90, UT Rotman isn't that bad of a choice, but unless you can raise that to 90+ I'd recommend against UWO Ivey, Schulich, Queen's or McGill.

Queens: need >87% to be considered (PSE important)
Schulich and Ivey: probably 90 and up
Laurier and Rotman: high 80s minimum, might be able to get in with mid 80 (great ECs)
Degroote: mid 80s

Everything else is pretty much lower I believe.

Isn't Advance Functions a prerequisite for Calculus and Vectors?

If so how are you taking both next semester?

At some schools they are co-requisites.

For Queen's, Schulich & Ivey AEO, you'll need at least 90+ average (top 6) to be competitive (though some do get AEO status with a high 80s average but a ton of ECs).

Based on the marks you said, it'll be really hard for you to get into Western, Queens, Rotman and Shulich.
If you can get min 80s and have good ECs (with leadership roles), you might get a chance with Laurier, Mac, and UTM.

You should also try to apply for Ryerson as they're not that bad of a business school and their requirements are pretty low
