what are the top unis in canada in terms of academic prestige?
>>7784711
Toronto, McGill and UBC are usually the big three iirc
also you can throw Waterloo in there for things like math/CS
>>7784711
depends on the field
I went to uoft for math and got into harvard with recommendation letters since several of my profs were so well known
ubc is pretty great too, mcgill is overrated and is more well known in canada than internationally
internationally its mostly ubc/uoft
>>7784711
dalhousie is #1 in all statistical categories
Is EngSci a meme?
Hard to say.
All the schools are the same because they're all publicly funded and must adhere to the same standards.
In terms of undergrad education they're the same for reasons listed above.
In terms of graduate education, they're similar but different. For example, if you want to study applied math, U of T, McMaster, McGill are good choices. If you want CS, there are many computer scientists at Waterloo. If you want to study logic, U of T has many set theorists but McMaster has more model theorists than any other school.
In terms of international reputation? McGill and to some extent U of T are well known in the USA.
Depends on the field. You can almost always put UBC and UoT at the top. McGill, Macmaster, and Waterloo are also pretty common to be up there.
As far as I know university of Ottawa gets almost no credit but seems to do well in some subject like Chemistry where its fairly high
