Getting into ryerson and UFT

Hi I am currently an Ontario HS student in gr 12 planning to go into accounting next fall. I applied to Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) - Accounting and Finance in Ryerson and accounting in UFT. I also applied to AFM in waterloo but I have no hope on getting in there so I am not worried. But got Ryerson is it hard to get into? I applied in Early December and I still haven't heard from them while my friends who applied in January already got their acceptances:) I am trying not to think too much about it but its bugging me that I might not get accepted so I want your opinions to prepare my heart. My gr 11 average is 89 ish and my gr 12 Accounting- 85 English - 85 Math-90 and Chem-85.

What are your thoughts on bought Ryerson and UFT.
PS: Be brutally honest if you have to!

Most likely Ryerson, your average is low for UfT. Never know, may be is lower this year. Good luck.

My daughter is applying like yours. She already got accepted to Ryerson, still waiting for UfT. Her average is higher, 94.

Ontario high school is trash. Lack of standardized testing means that marking and grading is completely subjective and can vary wildly between teachers, schools, boards, and districts. The mark inflation is at an ATH.

You should get into Ryerson but U of T you're going to be competing with students with easy teachers or students with rich parents that can literally buy a 95%+ mark for $700 a course at a private school

Ryerson is easier than Uoft and many other GTHA universities for sure but it might play better to your strengths if you aren’t academically the strongest in the class.

Toronto Met sounds trendy and metropolitan and where all the cool kids seems to be, so you should go for it
