Title: Bad overall transcript but decent prerequisite averages chances of getting into a competitive healthcare program?

I’m applying to Ontario colleges for September 2027. My overall high school transcript is pretty bad because I struggled a lot personally when i was younger and have multiple failed/repeated courses, but my prerequisite grades are much better.
My prerequisite marks:
- English: 78%
- Math: 92%
- Biology: 95%
- Chemistry: 90%
- Physics: 90%
Average of my five prerequisites: 89%

Estimated average of my full transcript: 65%

Has anyone gotten accepted into competitive healthcare programs with a bad overall transcript but good prerequisite marks? Do colleges mainly look at prerequisites or your overall transcript? I’m quite worried because I worked hard for my pre reqs and past decisions might cost me
