Question on Co-op placement rates

About to enter 2nd year and was wondering how accurate the 2025 co-op placement data is in terms of realistically landing a co-op term. https://coop.apsc.ubc.ca/2025-year-in-review

I understand placement depends on personal factors like GPA and personal projects, design teams etc. but for some programs like CIVL its damn near 80-90% which makes it seem like basically everyone landed one. Could an upper year or someone with co-op experience shed some light on if this is actually the case? How likely is someone with a good GPA but little personal/design team experience to land one?

Thanks
