^ It's always been like that, but I thought I heard something about people not needing to write other Provincials, even if applying for University.

^I think in the past, you need to write the provincial for your courses to get in/apply for university.
Now you can apply/get in with just final exam(s) + english provincial

This used to be the case if you just wanted to graduate HS
what a fucking joke, i blame our provincial govt once again. It's the reason for the overinflated admission grades.

Thinking back to my highschool days (which wasn't long ago; grad of 08) I now realize how almost every year, someone I made contact with in school passed away. Gr.8 was my counselor Ms. Dedijer (sp?), gr.9 was my band teacher Mrs. Dreger, and gr.10 was a close friend of mine. Not long after grad, a fellow classmate passed away as well. Weird  | |

Someone in my sister's grade had passed away too (this was after I left).. I think maybe around 2007. Then there's Doug Drummond (former Burnaby mayor and math teacher) who passed away in 2006, and a fairly recent vice principal who passed away after he had a heart attack jogging or something..Can't remember his name. The latter two had already left and retired, but still :/
