Mcgill and Georgetown

Applying to College
1

<p>I'm applying to both of these schools and I was wondering if any current/former students could tell me whether or not I have a chance of getting in.</p>

<p>SAT I:</p>

<p>Math - 600</p>

<p>CR - 630</p>

<p>Writing - 700</p>

<p>GPA - 3.88</p>

<p>Sat II</p>

<p>Spanish - 630</p>

<p>U.S. History - 570</p>

<p>I haven't gotten a B since freshman year and I have a ton of extracurriculars (music, TA, working for non-profits)</p>

<p>I also got two really good recommendation letters.</p>

<p>I already got into the University of Washington a week after they started sending acceptance lettters and I was accepted at Western Washington University with distinction.</p>

<p>Any chance?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help.</p>

<p>Your test scores are below McGill's minimums so you don't have a chance there. Georgetown isn't entirely numbers based, so you do have a chance there.</p>

<p>Like kungfu said, McGill is all based on numbers. Looking at their requirements (Applicants</a> from U.S. High School Programs (in the U.S.A. and other countries)), it seems like your U.S History score is too low. Depending on what you're planning to major in, your other scores look okay.</p>

<p>Georgetown is holistic, so it's hard to tell you your chances.</p>

<p>Stats are a bit low for Georgetown, but you never know. If your ECs are good enough....</p>

<p>I know a girl with a 1360/1600 who was rejected from McGill, though, so meeting the minimums is simply a more broad standard. In reality, they just take the best people who apply.</p>
