Thanks a lot, now I know what has been covered in the Canadian grade 12 math. However, I think it all depends on the data they entered in my student file. So, I need to find out whether or not they took into consideration the subjects and topics that were covered in my high school math. Maybe, they set it up so that I would need to take all the math courses. Either way, I must find out so I know what courses to pick on SOLAR and how many electives I need to take in that case. But I don't know whom I should contact about this :S

An academic advisor. They have all the answers. The links to them should be on-line under your department.
