McGill Decisions Class of 2021 (entering 2017)

I called McGill this morning and they said to send end of first semester grades.

Yes, my S just got the same message and had to upload first quarter grades. (U.S. based.) If you haven’t done so, I would just go ahead and do it.

Hey! I was wondering if someone could tell me what they think my chance of getting in are and when I should receive a response, especially since I just applied on November 30th:

  • UW 4.0 GPA throughout high school.
  • 1310 on my SAT I (weakness) [650 math, 660 English]
  • 720 on Math level 2 (SAT II)
  • 800 on French SAT II
  • I am in my schools Key club, Spanish Newspaper, I am in the National Honors Society, I am peer tutor, and I have been in my school's varsity soccer team since 9th grade.
  • Ranking: 6/76
  • My school just started offering AP's my Senior year, AP Calc and AP Spanish, and I am taking both of them.
  • My semester 1 average during my Senior year was a 95.

What do you think my chances are?

Applied to Faculty of Arts with an IB predicted of 38/45 and a GPA of 3.8. I’m pretty sure my midterm grades will be awful. So, does anyone know if they require midterm grades from international IB students?

@juliadanan Depends on which program:
