    Marks for Prep Year in St. Jean?

    I went to talk to the recruiter here in Vancouver today (Good excuse to miss some school eh  ;D) and he said in order to get into RMC you need to have strong academic standing, ie. mid to high 80s, and that academics are about 85% of their consideration for you. Are those the same marks needed...
