  5. Upon completion of Ontario's Grade 12, you'll get OSSD -- Ontario's high school graduation diploma.

    I went to CIC in Hamilton for Grade 12 and went to university without TOEFL or IELTS results. So if you get English credits at school, there's no need to write extra English exams.

  9. cimp and cpu is the same. I took cimp at sunway last year and i got to say it is a fun course, u will have canadian lecturers, games, watch movies for ur assigments, presentations and etc but u will have to know that in sunway its 90% foreign students and 10%locals and the locals are 'not really locals' as they are from international school. I was the only 10 out of 400 students that took spm so it was a culture shock at first. Having mat sallehs teaching u, people speak with weird accents, lots of assigment, quizzes, games and etc but overall it is a good course for students planning to do mass comm, social science, busniess and arts related course. This course will make u more confident
