<p>Notes: I was born in Quebec, Canada, but I am currently living in New Jersey. I have recently taken the SAT again and will receive the scores at the end of October. I am also planning on taking the ACT this month.</p>

<p>I forgot to mention that my dad is an alumni. I’m not sure if that’ll boost my chances significantly.</p>

3

<p>Rutgers: Safety
McGill: Reach since CR is the main thing holding you back
Concordia: Low match (SAT-optional)</p>

<p>I just took the SAT and am awaiting on the score. I plan on taking the ACT this month. Does my Critical Reading score really matter if I’m trying to major in Engineer or Finance?</p>

<p>Straight out of McGill’s “Admissions standards for previous years” right where the Chemical, mechanical (and presumably biomedical since it’s in the same selectivity range) engineering standards are:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I know McGill’s procedure isn’t holistic unless you’re on the fence. And “minimum requirements” for engineering, as far as CR is concerned, is 620. But it will no longer be a reach if you get 620+ on CR in the last sitting. So, by all means, come back to me once you’ve got the results of the last SAT sitting.</p>

<p>Rutgers basically admits everyone in New Jersey lol.</p>

7

<p>The only Rutgers undergraduate units that have anything resembling selectivity are the 0-6 PharmD and the business school.</p>

<p>Hey I just wanted to give an update.</p>

<p>I received my ACT score a few weeks ago.</p>

<p>Composite: 30
English: 33
Math: 32
Writing: 28
Science: 26</p>

<p>How are my chances looking?</p>

9

<p>Whoops! I mean I got a 28 on Reading.</p>

10

<p>Rutgers: Safety
Concordia: Low match
McGill: Match (I believe BiomedE is going to be even more selective than ChemE)</p>

11

<p>Sorry, I chanced you for Rutgers SAS, which isn’t your case. SAS is the one Rutgers unit that admits lots of in-staters with 3.8/30.</p>

<p>Rutgers engineering/business: Match</p>

<p>Thanks for the response. I forgot to mention that I’ve already been accepted to Rutgers. I’ve sent my transcripts to McGill via mail last week and I’m hoping they receive it this week. </p>

<p>Does anybody have any idea how long it takes McGill to respond back? Would it be longer since I live in the states?</p>
