<p>hey guys, so under decision, one of my applications says "Reviewed - Decision Pending"</p>

<p>anyone know what that means?</p>

<p>i don't think its good.</p>

<p>mcgill was a bit of a stretch so its not the end of the world for me.</p>

<p>any thoughts? good or bad?</p>

<p>It shouldn’t be a bad thing. What are your stats?</p>

<p>I’m applying to the faculty of arts, and my status has been “reviewed - decision pending” for the past week. McGill is a big reach for me too, so I think it might mean we’re put in a “maybe” pile?</p>

<p>SAT: 2000 (670,640,690)
GPA (unweighted): 3.78, but with a strong senior year (4.0)</p>

<p>i would love to know: has anyone else gotten accepted with similar stats?
the “decision pending” makes me think that they’re waiting to see the rest of the applicant pool before they decide if we’re a good fit, but has anyone else been admitted after seeing this as their status?</p>

<p>Why do you think McGill is a big reach for you? Your GPA and test scores are a lot higher than their min. requirements.</p>

<p>I have the same thing.</p>

<p>My SATs are 2170 (680, 750, 740) and my unweighted GPA is about 3.72 so I don’t think it’s a bad sign. I’d assume it means you just have to wait for something to come in the mail.</p>

<p>I’ve been decision pending since the 6th of February. I’m really scared.
I got into Toronto for Life Science at St. George’s and I’m American.
But I’ve heard decision pending is supposed to be bad if its over a week. ahh.</p>

<p>My unweighted gpa is about a 3.3 ( with reason)
and my act is a 33.</p>

<p>I dont think its a bad thing, I have the same thing for one faculty; But got accepted into Science with a 3.75 GPA and 35 ACT</p>

9

<p>I have the same thing for science with even lower stats, 1910 SAT and 3.83 GPA</p>
