has anyone here who applied to the B.A. & Sc. degree program heard back yet? i heard back from the faculty of sciences but not the interfaculty program i applied to. i'm stuck on "reviewed- decision pending"

[/quote]

I got "Admitted Pending Final Results" into the BSc Phys,Earth,Math&Comp Sci as well as BSc Biol, Biomed & Life Sci. 36 on ACT, >4.0 GPA at a top school in US. 800 math SAT II, 720 chem, 730 spanish, 740 bio M. 740/690/670 math/reading/writing on SAT.</p>

<p>So can I get C's on my report card second semester or do I have to get B's?</p>

142

<p>wait, if it says "..pending final results" after admitted, does that mean you are more likely to be rescinded than those who have simply "admitted" on their status page</p>

143

<p>i think everyone has the "pending final results" attached..finally got my decision today too!!!</p>

144

<p>yeah i'm pretty sure no one has just "Admitted" - congrats to everyone!</p>

145

<p>humph, I still haven't heard back from the Interfaculty, B.A. & Sc. program
still says "reviewed-decision pending"... i officially hate the word "pending". mcgill likes using it way too much.</p>

146

<p>Grrrrr. I totally agree.</p>

147

<p>Woot, got in today.</p>

<p>New York Male
33 ACT
3.5 uw gpa w/ 9 AP's at really competitive HS
Admitted to arts under econ as presumed major</p>

<p>Really happy because I didnt do so hot in AP Calc (bombed the midterm) this semester.</p>

<p>cheers,
Mike</p>

148

<p>Same. My grades were OK first semester but I did AWFULLY in AP Calc! grrr</p>

149

<p>My stats are lower than most of the ones posted here, but I'm in IB, meaning that it's all that really matters, right?
I mean I have a good predicted score and a decent GPA.. my SAT scores aren't the best though (650/670/620 - reading/math/writing)
I have the 'reviewed - decision pending' thing as well.. is it bad that they haven't decided yet?</p>

150

<p>I can't stop thinking that I'm neither a sure yes nor a sure no with that status, so now I just have to keep on waiting.</p>

151

<p>Test scores aren't everything!
Accepted Faculty of Arts and Faculty of Science</p>

<p>ACT 29</p>

<p>SAT CR/640 M/650 W/670</p>

<p>Also, anyone with Community college credits, I just found out that McGill will take up to 60 which is great, not many places will do this.</p>

152

<p>I am an IB student with a predicted grade of 34 and I applied to the Faculty of Arts.
My app status is still " Further review required" but now they are asking for my mock exams?
Does that mean that I will probably get rejected? What exactly are they looking from my mocks?</p>

<p>^ don't worry, you may get my spot. Lol. Unless I get a big scholarship from them I can't afford it. Sad... I know.</p>

160

<p>Has anyone been accepted recently? I applied to arts and sciences in January, but my transcript didn't make it across the country until late Feb., so I think I missed the first wave. My status is still 'Ready for Review' and it's driving me insane!</p>
