Hey! hi everyone, i come from canada. it is my first time to visit this site and i think it’s cool.

I am a high school grad this year but i decide to take a year off because im only 16. next year, i will be working in UBC as a lab assistance. For the matter of fact, i realize that most of the ivy league’s admissions deadline are done pretty early so i better have my decision made as soon as possible. i am wondering that would it be a good idea to stay in UBC because i already know ppl well since i will be working with prof in that department next year. or i should try ivy league in us? does it really make a big different for undergrad sutdy? i think UBC or Prienceton (for instance) are both among the top notch research university in world, is that really a huge different between them?

i also wonna ask abt do anyone know anything (like reputation) abt university of waterloo in ontario,canada? because i heard that they have a good math department. would it be as capable as ivy league in term of math?

Many thanks!
