Just because there's a long q at the front door doesn't mean you need to join the line with the rest.
Assuming you are passionate about your area of study, go beyond your coursework in the area you are most interested in and develop a portfolio. Then research the uni faculty and find the one whose work is most related and reach out. First praise their work and say it really resonates with you and then ask if they would mind looking at your work and suggest how to improve. Keep in touch from time to time. If you establish a relationship then you won't be just another in a long list of applicants.

And your profs at poly probably have contacts with uni profs that you can leverage. Best do this before your final year.
wah standy enrolled this way before?

I have the template for what I call an “SOS” mentality: the psychological skill set to Strive, Overcome, and Succeed. I label the skill set the Seven Deadly Wins—seven core principles of psychopathy that, apportioned judiciously and applied with due care and attention, can help us get exactly what we want; can help us respond, rather than react, to the challenges of modern-day living; can transform our outlook from victim to victor, but without turning us into a villain:
1. Ruthlessness
2. Charm
3. Focus
4. Mental toughness
5. Fearlessness
6. Mindfulness
7. Action

Without a shadow of a doubt, the power of the skill set lay squarely in its application. Certain situations would inevitably call for more of some traits than others, while within those sets of circumstance, some sub-situations, going back to our trusty mixing desk analogy, would plausibly demand higher or lower output levels of whichever traits were selected. Cranking up the ruthlessness, mental toughness, and action dials, for instance, might make you more assertive—might earn you more respect among your work colleagues. But ratchet them up too high and you risk morphing into a tyrant.
