    This is my third year at UBC, and I love it. I've been lucky to be able to live at home in Richmond the whole time, so I haven't lived on campus. I imagine one of the benefits of a shared washroom is that a staff person cleans it, as opposed to the single joined washroom, which you might be expected to clean yourself. On the other hand, the shared washroom would be more likely to be subject to vandalism or sudden messiness.

    • @bluelucy3872
      @bluelucy3872 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Nishant Verma honestly it depends on what exactly you're doing in computer science. Both that and engineering are full on math. If your average is below 75 or 70 (from highschool) I wouldn't advise to do it for literally you will be living on logs and functions for those course. Also if you're taking IB courses (I am) then you have a greater chance of success as they teach you ahead of time how to do these things in highschool.
      Yes, computer science can be easier, but it involves a lot more of physics (which is also full on math). You do you, if you believe you'll succeed and will study your hardest go for it.
      In engineering be aware that over half of your classmates will fail or drop out by the 3rd lol it is super intense (much alike to medical school). Really uou need to focus on math as anything to do with computers, electronics, science and such.. it's sole purpose is math and how to branch off of it.
      Good luck 👍

    Very helpful vid ty. Please help me! I’ve lived in CA my whole life and was accepted to the UBC and Sciences Po Dual Degree. I hope to attend law school like she said, but in the US. Do you know anything about the program or do u know how helpful this dual degree would b when applying to law school in the US? It’s in my top two choices, I’m hesitating bc I’m afraid I won’t find enough research/internships w such a big school.

    • @NathanWu
      @NathanWu  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If anything a dual degree might set your apart from a competitive applicant pool, so that's a good thing. As for research, it might be tougher because all your classmates may want to do the same, but the benefit of a big school is the connection for internships!

      The question I get asked 3884743 times... AHA! The answer is: no... BUT Gr9 and 10 is foundational for science, math, and English. If you slack off, you may have a very difficult time in the later years. Also, high school learning/testing is very different from elementary so use those early years to experiment study techniques & time management. I have a video on how to take notes & study if you're interested!
