agreed. Sometimes it's good to see azns there, but when it's Van city it becomes a lil bit ridiculous when you see those asians there, whites=minority!
It's not really ridiculous, ya i know walking in some areas like Richmond and Burnaby you see lotsa asians but still it still has a very distinct ang moh feel!QUOTE(Jyoum @ Mar 30 2009, 08:41 AM)
Hi all,
I've just received my admission letter for Simon Fraser University, I'm waiting on University of British Columbia and University of Victoria, all three West Coast universities (sent both applications late, will receive the results probably around May)
I'll probably get into UVic and maybe just maybe UBC (I reckon I've a good shot). I know in terms of international recognition, UBC wins hands down, but I'd like to seek your opinions regarding this matter. I intend to pursue a degree in Commerce and have heard good things about UBC's Sauder School of Business and SFU's co-op program. Any comments on both the programs? My student advisor's opinion was rather skewered towards SFU. She thinks UBC's a rather snotty institute sweat.gif
My concern would be the tuition cost, UBC's total cost is $10k more expensive compared to SFU's ($ 24k approximate). Is the school's recognition worth the extra money? (I hope to go to grad school in the future)
I'm the eldest kid with 2 more younger siblings, don't really want to use up all my mom's $$
And umm how's the weather over at Vancouver?

How was the results? And heck no, UBC is a way better university for Commerce.
Weather in Vancouver rocks! rain rain and rain much! haha but during summer it will get really dry, generally it's great, neither too cold nor too hot.
