Admissions at McGill is very stats oriented and relatively predictable. Your stats are great.

I think that you will hear good news relatively quickly. I also think that McGill is great for linguistics.

Yes, McGill is great for Linguistics! My D18 is studying Cognitive Science with a Linguistics concentration. She really, really likes the program. All of her Ling profs have been fantastic.

@DadTwoGirls and @ShrimpBurrito Thanks for much for your responses! I’m still waiting for an answer, but I really hope I get in. fingers crossed

Your stats look awesome. Good luck!

@yw123 Most students who are “Harvard material” are rejected by Harvard.
