Chance + Admission Question?

Colleges and Universities A-Z McGill University

<p>I was looking at the admission minima for US students applying to the school of science. It says that you must have a minimum of an A-/B+ in precalculus, and two sciences. I got a B in Honors Pre-Calc, AP Chemistry, and BSCS(honors biology). I got a A-/B+ in regular chemistry. Does this mean that I can't get in? Other than that, I have:</p>

<p>3.6 GPA (3.8 if just sophmore and junior year)</p>

<p>2210 SAT I
700 on Reading
800 on Math
710 on Writing</p>

<p>5 on AB Calculus
5 on AP Computer Science
4 on AP Chemistry</p>

<p>770 Chemistry SAT II
770 Math I SAT II
790 Japanese SAT II</p>

<p>I have e-mailed the undergraduate admissions office. I am hoping for a reply soon.</p>

<p>But in the meantime, any response would be appreciated.</p>

<p>I don’t think the admissions office will give you a definitive answer at this time. Your high SAT’s and good overall GPA (McGill does not look at grade 9) and AP scores may compensate for just missing those grades. </p>

<p>You should certainly apply.</p>

<p>Thanks for the reassurance. I hope you’re right!</p>

<p>Actually, you are 100% IN guaranteed. Directly into the ACCEPTED pile.</p>

<p>I don’t know how the admissions process differs for American students but for a Canadian student with your grades would definitely get in. You should apply because you have a great change.</p>
