I am also Canadian. Was not a fan of the lack of standardized testing because I was very aware that many schools (and not mine) was in the practice of inflating grades to help their students’ acceptance and scholarship applications.

This is one problem that standardized testing aims to solve — how does a university compare a student with 95% avg from one school and 85% from another?
