The GPA cut off is insane. You would literally need an A in every required course. My friend got in the last intake with a 3.4. With the new requirements for next intake not having electives and the extra English and Bio, a 3.9 will be so hard to ach...
With the two electives being included in the GPA, were those the two classes that really raised it? With the new requirements having an extra English and the other part of Bio its going to be so much harder to have as high GPAs as I am reading here!
Im not applying until next semester so Im not sure right now. They just changed the requirements now and they don't accept electives so I'm worried It won't be as high as other years that had that option!
Im looking to apply for the January 2017 intake. For all of you who were offered a seat, could you please tell me what your application was like? GPA, total credits, work experience etc. Thank you!

Exactly how I feel, I would not have had a problem taking the English this semester. Its just that the way I planned my schedule and to have all my courses done by May does not include nore have room for an extra two classes.

I completely understand why these changes are being made, and it does seem like a good idea. HOWEVER, it should be a change that they tell us before we sign up for courses. Bottom line is for the January 2017 term these requirements shouldn't count b...

The worst part for me is definitely the new biology requirement. Because first of all those courses are SO hard to get into, so if i don't get in that that pushes me back so much. Have you taken the biology's yet? I talked to one advisor and said she...

It is honestly unacceptable. I emailed an advisor and I am waiting to here back. I recommend everyone do so as well, hopefully if they get a lot of complaints they will do something about it. I understand changing requirements, but changing them in t...
