Here's a tip for succeeding at UofT... Start your research one week earlier than you initially planned. Two weeks if you want that 90%-100%.

this pandemic actually forces all the high school students (like me) to be more independent so that’s a plus lol

just wanted to let you know that this was extremely helpful, thank you so much!

Thank you so much for this video. It gives me (and I bet a lot lf others) so much optimism!!

You're killing it👍🏼

Loved this!

This was really helpful! Thank you

Just got in utsc neuroscience, I’m excited but also nervous. Thanks for your advices!

Hello! I'm a recent high school graduate, and I've accepted my offer to study Social Sciences at U of T! Excited but nervous to go there in the fall (hopefully), so watching this video is great to start getting into the university-life mindset. Thanks for making it :)

Great video tyty! I wish I had discovered this before my first sem lol.

Brandon pls keep uploading videos regularly about how we can get into uft and host interview how they got into uft national and international and tell point more to focus on so that we can make sure to get admitted pls

Good luck in your second year! As a soon-to-be third year pharmtox student, my friends and I all have our GPA dropped for the two consecutive semesters this year... Also one tip: If you can join the SLC of your program, join it! I really had trouble making friends in my first year but after I joined the SLC of our program I made TONS of friends! (And feel better when I know that we were all struggling together... LOL)

thanks a lot!

Ayeee I’m in second year neuro and psyc major at uofT.

Facts man

btw are vic one programs worth it or is it too much pressure for first year? And if they ARE worth it, my application got accepted for Schawlow which I ranked second in preference while Stowe-gullen was my first preference because I will be studying Life Science. Should I still accept the offer?

I always thought the lab notebook was an urban legend.

The 60-65 median is program-specific btw

Hello, I am in grade 10, and I want to pursue a career in neuroscience (specifically, I want to be a neurosurgeon) I can't help but notice how you mentioned that you are taking neuroscience. I want to get into uoft. Can you please say how you got accepted? Like your average in grade 11 and 12 and other things you did to get accepted. And also how is the neuroscience program at uoft? How hard/ complicated is it? Thank you for making this video, it was really helpful ☺️

What did you take your first year? Do you have any prof recommendations or any to stay away from ? Also where do you download textbook pdfs?

Hi, this video was very helpful! I was just wondering for Neuroscience, did you have interviews/supplementary applications?

Since UofT push the mark low, won’t that influence students for their graduate program application? Eg the top unis in America, isn’t that unfair for students at UofT because they are getting a significantly low mark? I cannot understand the system and plz help, thank you.

I wish i watched your video before hand.

Almost everyone tells me not to apply to u of t , that’s it’s horrible, you’ll fail a lot of semesters and your 4 year degree would take sometimes 6 years to complete.. yet no matter what I just love u of t and can’t stop loving it❤️🥰

I am asking as I know for some universities such as McMaster, having simply the credits and required GPA is not enough, as there are very little spots in the program, so it is important to have a very competitive GPA in order to be granted admission into the program

Hi, thank you so much for your reply. I’ve applied to the psych program in the science discipline at u of t. On the website, it mentions limited enrolment and lists the minimum GPA and required courses. Does meeting just those requirements guarantee admission into the program? Did it for you?

Also since they use bell curves to deflate grades then how are people able to achieve high grades? How does that work?

Hi! I'm an international student and in my country, we don't have any extracurricular activities that the school actually offers so I'm thinking of taking the initiative myself. If someone is an international student and got into UofT or any other medical school, please give some advice because it is a disadvantage not being from the U.S or CA. Also, I'm in ninth grade, and I want to do this with anticipation because of this disadvantage. Thanks for this video btw!!!

@Brandon Yu I had a question. For U of T neuroscience, on their website it states it is limited enrolment and highlights the credits needed to get in as well as the average to be enrolled. However, does having the credits and listed average, guarantee admission, or is there limited spots within the program?

Ha, i'm a bit late to respond to this question for you, as i'm sure you've found the answer already...but for anyone else asking, Life Sciences is a general term for core Science based courses (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, etc) that someone interested in pursuing Med School would take.

How bad is utsc? I think I am going there this year

can i ask where these group chats are typically held? i dont have instagram, should i download it just to stay in contact with other uni students? would this be a smart move?

@@brandonnnyu there is a $65 per course cap on homework tools per university policy. Also they can't force you to buy the eBook with the homework tool, they are required to offer the homework tool only as an option per the same policy. If a prof breaches this policy, complain to your academic advisor (and if that doesn't work to your Dean, and if that doesn't work to VP-Students.)
