I had a friend transfer into Haskayne from MRC back in my University days. After 2 years at MRC he had a 3.85 GPA which won him a spot to come over to UofC. His First semester GPA in Haskayne was 2.25. There's a huge difference. It might not necessarily be what or how subjects are taught but maybe more of a reflection of the students in the seats in courses where the grades are curved. Bottom line if you're coming out of High School with 90's marks and you want to go to Business school or engineering school in Calgary you're not picking Mount Royal over UofC.
