It's close by and has a great reputation. The transportation to get there is easy and fairly quick. The campus is very big and the libraries are very nice to study in. There is easy access to food places around campus.

Course Curriculum

8

It's alright, the exams should be weighted so heavily (ex 65%). I enjoy how most of my classes are not project based on a group as those projects are challenging (due to group conflicts that always arise).

Fees

They charged us for the infrastructure of UBC, Healthcare plans and also a great sum for the gym (although we still have to pay another fee on top of that to use the gym). There are charges for the courses as well as the textbooks that come with it.

Examination Structure

The midterms go on till almost finals start, midterms last for 2 months because there are 2 rounds of midterms. Finals last for a month at the end of the semester. Usually, the exams are clumped together, even though they go for a month they are still very close to each other.

Faculty

I think the faculty of science is decent. The courses are alright. The events and the scientific committee are not as great compared to other faculties.
