Why go to an american university when canadian universities are rated amongst the best in the world beating out practically every american institute. So just stay canadian its so much easier, less tuition, dont have to pay for room and board, or even food. |

right but if you plan on working in the states (ie. California, Silicon Valley) then you're better off going to an American Technical University like MIT. |

if you're going to uni/collage just for the sake of going, then yeah, might as well stay in Canada... But Asok is right, if its career specific, such as MIT, then it has its advantages... |

you cant fail SATs... its a relative score You get some points even if you get 0 on it (I think... or was it SSAT?)
ether way, there is no passing grade, but each uni/collage have their own admition standarts |

well this is how i look at it... i say canada is more to the right and US is more to the left meaning that canada is mostly with people with no money that's y we got health insurance and our medical health care sucks but it's free but if u go to a us hospital u'll get the best treatment but it'll cost a lotta money... same with education and universities... so if u are rich US is best place to live but if u are in middle or poor u better goto canada!!! boooyeah now that spewing intelegence(if that's u spell it) |

I was leaning towards compsci at waterloo (hey Catalyst you'll finally know people on this board irl) but after reading a brief history of time, theoretical physics sounds fun...following the path of steven hawking and gordon freeman  |

I was wanting to go to university for comp science and applied and got accepted and all that stuff... but I decided college was more what I wanted... less theoretical stuff, more hands on... the way I see it, university teaches you a whole lot of things you're never going to use and it costs way more oh yeah... the SATs are an excellent idea... Canada needs a standard testing system too, because a 90 at one school is not the same as a 90 at another... |
