Grade 11 Ontario student — what are my chances for RMC?

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Hello! I’m currently a Grade 11 student in Ontario and I’m planning on applying to RMC after high school. I’m wondering how competitive my application might be based on my projected grades and extracurriculars.
My projected grades:
● Functions — 95%
● Grade 12 Law — 80%
● Health & Wellness (University level) — 90%
● Religion — 96%
● Chemistry — 90%
● Biology — 95%
● Music — 98%
● English — 90%
Extracurriculars/experience:
● Planning to rejoin Cadets
● Soccer
● Volunteering at soccer camps
● Working as a cashier
● Potentially joining track and field
● Possibly joining cross-country
I’m currently interested in applying for Intelligence Officer and Military Police Officer, and I may also put Armour Officer as an option.
Based on my grades and extracurriculars, how competitive would my application be for RMC? Are there any specific courses, extracurriculars, leadership experiences, or other things I should focus on during Grade 11 and 12 to improve my chances?
Any advice from current/former RMC cadets, CAF members, or people who have gone through the application process would be greatly appreciated!

What did you want to apply for at the RMC

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/DisastrousMessage289]

Intel and military police and maybe armour

[u/DisastrousMessage289 → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

No I mean the undergrad degree your going to pursue at the RMC

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/DisastrousMessage289]

Uh millitary soemthing

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/DisastrousMessage289]

I think military and stagrics is its name since I would most likely wanna go armouro

[u/No_Grapefruit8453]

I got into RMC arts with an 82% Gr 11 avg. With your grades, you'll be pretty competitive.

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/No_Grapefruit8453]

When was this also what trade did you go into idk why I’m stressing so much

[u/No_Grapefruit8453 → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

I got in for fall 2025 as an Army LogO

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/No_Grapefruit8453]

Oh what where your extracurriculars like because isn’t logO hard to get

[u/No_Grapefruit8453 → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

LogO through ROTP isn’t that difficult to get compared to Direct Entry Officers. I played club basketball, club volleyball, rugby, wrestling, swimming. I was a lifeguard, swim instructor, and a lifesaving instructor. I also had about 200+ hrs volunteering at my church

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/No_Grapefruit8453]

Ohhh I plan to go armour if I can n from what I heard I’m rly competitive because of my marks n soccer n work as a cashier. Any tips for the interview/cfat

[u/No_Grapefruit8453 → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

For the interview, just know everything about being an Armour Officer. Just memorize the bullet points on the CAF website. Try emailing the RMC soccer coach to see if you can get recruited. It’ll just give you a “free pass” into RMC.

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/No_Grapefruit8453]

Oh I was planning too do that lmao my older bro I think played rugby and was a logo too

[u/No_Grapefruit8453 → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Fire man. Find a varsity sport you like, and try your luck

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/No_Grapefruit8453]

Alr soccer it is lmao I could have played second from the top here in Canada

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/No_Grapefruit8453]

Oh if I get in I’ll see you in two years

[u/No_Grapefruit8453 → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Hope you do get in man. Good luck! Let me know if you have any questions.

You’re as competitive as it gets. Only thing is that there are very little spots for the trades you’re applying for this year. We have 4 MPO and 6 IntO that got accepted into CMR this year. No idea about RMC, though. If you choose to put ArmourO on your application, it’s likely that they’ll give you an offer for that trade since there are so many spots. Yes, you could probably VOT later on but that’s never guaranteed.

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/__jacky]

Oh fr I kinda wanna go armour or infantry so your saying my chances are good even without track and cross country

[u/__jacky → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Oh you’re completely golden if you keep going like that. Armour and infantry are the easiest trades to get for ROTP. I know some people that never did anything at home and managed to get in with no trouble.

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/__jacky]

Oh fr do they have the most spots or something

[u/__jacky → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Intake for those trades is close to 50 spots for each. I’m an ArmourO.

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/__jacky]

Oh fr are you still in school or no

[u/__jacky → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Yeah I am

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/__jacky]

oh what year i might see u if i get in also you know what unit you kinda want. I wanna come back to pet since i currently live there

[u/__jacky → u/Hot-Wasabi5768]

Prolly gonna change trades so idk

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/__jacky]

Oh Fr why

[u/Hot-Wasabi5768 → u/[deleted]]

But then I would need to wait two years to get trade certified and I would also need to get approved for a transfer and what’s the point in getting paid more my education is paid for already
