U of T is extremely competitive. Make sure to have a minimum 3.5 GPA when applying

90%, A

York and Ryerson are respectable schools. You need a B+ to A- there.

Its only logical to come here if you get accepted to U of T, McGill or UBC. They are among the worlds best

The rest are B rate schools suitable for international students from Asia.

England has a few great schools but 90% of them are diploma mills. They will accept you with D averages. If you don't have a B or B+ here, no school will accept you.
