My average is 89% It's pretty sad actually because I just need one more percent to be a 90 student and all teachers favor 90% and up students.

Think about it this way: - you can add one % to every one of your top six courses now - you can add 6% to only one and just maintain the other five - you could add 3% to two of your top six and maintain the others - you could add 2% to three of your top six and maintain the others - you could add 5% to one and 1% to another and maintain the others - or you could add 4% to one, and 2% to another (or 1% to two others). when you think about it that way it becomes easier to make it a goal, or at least that's the way i find it

Getting into med school is goin to be freakin impossible..soooo many people in this forum have 93+ averages!! I better consider an alternative career....

Med school is definitely very hard, but you can't take the forum as a good sample. The people who post here typically have a different average than everyone in the field.

Grade 12: 92% First year: 91% Second year: 90% I'm starting to notice a trend, and I actually expect about an 89% in third year.
Sad thing is I consider anything less than 85 poor. There used to be a time when I thought anything higher than an 80% was awesome. Anything over 90% (paper-wise) is publishable. Congratulations, I will be looking for your next article. What?

Congratulations, I will be looking for your next article. What? I just think those marks are absolutely amazing. Anything given a mark of 90%+ (at Queen's? at the bulk of universities? I don't know) is good enough to be published... you know, academic journals and the like.

90-92% all through high school. I'm in grade 12 now, calculus is giving me some grievances, but I have a couple really high options to make up for it.

I think if you get 70s in highschool it will stay the same though. I only took one uni course so didn't have pressure of writing several papers at once but I did obtain a 70 (of course this was at York) and I slacked off a lot for that class

I'm in grade 12 and my GPA is high 90s. Hope I maintain it through university but I've been told that it will be extremely hard to do that!
Waiting on the world to change. ♥

i think the students who never really had to try in highschool will not do as well because they don't have the same work habits as those who are used to facing adversity in their marks

That 90% only means that I have a good memory and at least decent logical reasoning and critical thinking, which doesn't necessarily make me worthy of publication. Thanks for the compliment, though.

my high school is semestered, so last semester (first sem. grade 12) I had around an 89% average. I'm working towards a 90 so I can get more out of entry scholarships, but other than that I can't complain because I already got accepted into all of my programs (arts & humanities programs).

First semester about 94-ish. (5 courses) Second semester expecting about 96-98 midterm (also 5 courses). BTW, the only reason my second sem is so high is cause is cause I have 3 courses (photography, comm tech, comm tech #2) which have teachers that are not afraid to give perfects for work that they deem "good enough". Hence, they're pretty much bird courses, at least for me.  As long as you do all the work to a high-enough level, of course. But that's nothing compared to this one guy in my grade - his average is around 98 with physics, calculus, and biology. =O He's pretty amazing. Schulich BBA 2012

I'm in my last year of high school and in a non-semestered school. I couldnt choose what exactly I wanted to go into so I took 8 courses and landed myself with an 87.something average for those. But I dropped one and now I only take 7, so I hope my average rises
