You can always take electives in the summer... I think they'll still take those marks into account if you don't get into what you want by June.

Protip: beginners 6 unit language courses aren't hard to do well in.

I talked to a professor he said you should be able to get into Biomed Eng with an 8.

Also, BioMed/Comp/Elec are more or less the same in 2nd year. Few different courses here and there, otherwise the same. You can always see the undergrad calender to see what courses each stream takes.

They use a point system with a C.A. so I'm assuming the 9.0 is if you have the standard 31 unit full course load w/o the two electives, which is roughly 7.6 with the two electives.

You would be able to get in with an 8 I believe. My average was crazy low (to the point I'm embarrassed to say), however a big difference is that I did have it as my first choice.

For #5... I wouldn't. I REALLY wouldn't. Just from looking at the undergraduate calendar a fair few biomeds are a bit wary of our coming year.
