U.S. residents

<p>For those of you who applied from the US, to any Canadian school that is, you applied before Senior year, right?</p>

<p>no, fall of senior year</p>

<p>September 06</p>

<p>I have heard that senior year grades are very important to Mcgill. Is this true?</p>

<p>Yes, I would presume so.</p>

<p>senior year grades are EXTREMELY important. Normally at colleges, they're medium of importance, but at McGill, they do not look at freshman year grades, and make up for the lack thereof by focusing on ALL grades they receive; and they have an extremely merit-based admissions system, as in no essays, recs, etc., just grades (except music.)</p>

<p>Hmmmm, what about if I graduated in three years instead of four?</p>

<p>haha, then maybe you'd get an advantage if you graduated junior year...and then had freshman--although they just don't look at freshmen grades, maybe because canadians don't enter high school till 10th? Not sure.</p>

<p>LordPablo, frankly, it all depends on the methods by which you graduated. If I were you, I would contact the Ministere d'Immigration et Communautes culturelles and get an equivlancy assessment of your studies, since it is such an odd situation.</p>

<p>I'm assuming you tested out of High School?</p>
