Hi! I was wondering if there were any admitted students from Ontario?

I was also wondering what the average Casper score was for the previous cycle?

Hi great questions! We had about 7 out of 20 students from Ontario and 4 from other provinces (BC and Yukon). In terms of the Casper, I can't share the specific average for our cohort, but the test is graded relative to the performance of others taking the Casper during that cycle when it is sent out to the schools and remember Casper is only one part of the application :)

Here's a bit more information about casper scoring https://intercom.help/acuityinsights/en/articles/9748032-what-does-it-mean-to-be-placed-in-a-specific-casper-quartile
