Im currently in grade 11 in Canada Ontario. This story all started back in grade 9. Fresh out of public school, i have 9 Academic Math 1st semester, im not very good at math to start off with, but it didnt help that we had to take notes!!!!! for the 1st time EVER. End of the semester, ive failed almost every math test, marks about a 59%, and my teacher recomends me for Grade 10 Applied math. I agree since i was fucking stupid and didnt think about maybe if i wanted to go to university. Now in grade 10 ive got my act together i kno u have to actualy do homework and take notes to get good marks!!! Go into Grade 10 Applied Math class, with a bunch of retards (no offence to anyone), just to give u guys a clue, I remember one day a firetruck went passed the window and the whole class except me and like 2 others Stood up ran to the window shouting "WEEEEEEERRRRRR WEEEEERRRRRR WWWEEEEEERRRRRRR" i end up getting the highest mark in the class about a 95% which was easily done. Grade 11 im feeling good end up takeing 11 U/C Math which is University College its like in between academic and aplide. It is also extremely easy, get highest mark in class like a 92% (teacher was terrible ). Now after that semester is over I am currently 2nd week into 2nd semester, which happens to be course selection week for grade 12!!!! So i have to research universities to find what prerequisites i need to take the courses i want. I Love chemistry so i decided i wanted to go into that, i look at the prerequisites......
12U Chemistry - Easy
12U Physics - Easy
12U Calculas - Should be ok........
I check wat the prerequisites are for 12U Calculas and they are 11U Math (WTF I DONT HAVE 11U I HAVE U/C!?!?!?!?!) this is fucking terrible ima have to go to summer school or somthing!!!! and then it hits me, it cant possibly be true they wouldnt screw me that fucking hard. The prerequisite for 11U Math is 10 academic (WTF I ToOK 10 APPLIDE!?!?!!? WTF) i ran myself into a fucking dead end omfgggg i dont kno wat to do now, my only options that i can think of are.....
- take 10 Academic Match and 11U Match in Summer school (ive never gone to summer school b4 )
- take a victory lap (a 5th year) which i rly dont want to do at all.
I think this is complete bs and i got completely screwed over, im not even sure that if i retake these courses if i will even get credits for them since ive already taken them to a certain degree.
O btw this my 1st blog, i kno my gramar and spelling are bad but how was it ???
P.S this is complete BS

I did the same thing, but it shouldn't be a problem. I live in Ontario as well, and if you want to move up to a University course from a College course, it is only recommended that if you have the prior University course, not necessary. Did you even talk to guidance? I doubt it because that would be real fucked up if they made you take prior courses like that. I took Grade 9 Academic, Grade 10 Academic, Grade 11 College, and now I passed Grade 12 Academic with a 90% because I actually did all of my schoolwork.
Go down to guidance, explain your situation. If they say you have to go to summerschool, it sucks, but it's your only option. However, I'd be extremely surprised if this was the case.
