Biology Physiology cutoff
I was wondering if a CA of 11.1 is enough for the biology(physio) program. I heard it's competitive and the cutoff is very high.

Ah I applied for this program as well but physics ruined my CA = =. I heard that there were only 35 spots available in this program while another one of my friends said their kin TA who was in the program said it had 200 students.

looks like you can take all the courses in bio with physio that you could take in regular bio, other than BIO 3ZZ3. but obviously since the required courses are pretty rigourous I'd imagine physio students often get better thesis projects and whatnot.

the first number is closer to being correct... maybe the TA meant 200 collectively in level 2/3/4 but even then i doubt its that high

(In Physio atm)
The cutoff last year was a 10 CA (I apparently stand corrected below? ... I heard from someone who attended the BUGS meeting that it was a 10 due to Dr. Nurse constantly pushing for physio to be higher.. dunno who's right now lol)
There are approximately 40 people entering into the program each year
My sister just graduated from Physio this year, there were 8 students graduating with the degree
Hope that helps lol
