Math - Science Student

The following is an example of a potential schedule for the student seeking a Mathematics / Science curriculum in secondary school and University.

Please note that the group 2, 3, 4, and 6 have a selection of options available to complete this course of study, and the Options and Compulsory section allows the student to construct their curriculum in such a way to earn the required compulsory courses for their Ontario Diploma and take courses that interest them and lead towards their post-secondary goals

Group 1: Language A1	Enriched English	Enriched English
Group 2: 2nd Lanugage	French or Spanish	French or Spanish
Group 3: Individuals and Society	Enriched Geography	Enriched History
Group 4: Experimental Science	Enriched Science	Enriched Science
Group 5: Mathematics	Enriched Math (Math Methods)	Enriched Math (Math Methods)
Group 6: IB Option	N/A	N/A

Group 2: 2nd Lanugage	French or Spanish	French or Spanish
Group 3: Individuals and Society	Choice of Geography, History, or ITGS	Continuation of IB 1 choice
Group 4: Experimental Science	Enriched Biology or Chemistry	Contination of IB 1 choice
Group 5: Mathematics	Functions and Relations (Math Methods)	Advanced Functions and Calculus (Math Methods)
Group 6: IB Option	Often a second group 4 science or Physics	Continuation of IB 1 choice
Theory of Knowledge	ToK	N/A
Options and Compulsory courses of Ontario Diploma	1 student choice. Often a 3rd science or computers outside of IB	2 student choices. Often take Geometry and Discrete Math
	8 courses expected	6 courses minimum

Note: no university course requires all three sciences and both maths.

Engineering Programs will request: English, Calculus, Geometry and Discrete Math, Chemistry, and Physics

Science (Honours) Programs will request: English, and three of the following: Calculus, Geometry and Discrete Math, Chemistry, and Physics OR English, Calculus, and two fo the following: Geometry and Discrete Math, Chemistry, and Physics. (this varies slightly between universities)

Science (regular) Programs will request: English, Calculus, and two of the following: Geometry and Discrete Math, Chemistry, and Physics. (some will include Biology in the mix)

Please check the INFO book in guidance or ask a guidance counselor for correct information to base you decision.
