<p>You do need around 90% to stay out of the trash bin at top Canadian business programs. Sure you could get into any Canadian university with a 90%; you could get into any Canadian university with an 85% or even lower, depending on the program. But for the best business programs (which is what the OP asked about) you do need around 90% or higher.</p>

<p>As for it being harder for Americans to get into McGill, that is exactly the opposite of what I've been told by the 15 or so friends I have there that have either graduated from there or are in their final year. What US GPA is considered equivalent to a 90% in Canada anyway? 3.2? 3.4? 3.6? Afterall, isn't 89% considered a B in the US?</p>

<p>yes, an 89 is a b in the us</p>

23

<p>Well 89% is the average entering grade of students going to McGill. ;)</p>

<p>In terms of academic standing, are UK universities as competitive as US colleges??? I am planning to study architecture and I have seen that UK universities will grant you a B.A. Arch. or a B.Sc. Arch. after only 3 years of study, whereas in the US it takes 5 years... This makes me doubt a little: does this mean that arch. programs in the UK are less rigorous, or does this mean that they 'compress' a 5yr program to 3yrs (making it far more demanding that US colleges)???</p>

<p>To what American colleges might the Barlett School (University College London) and Cambridge be compared to?? </p>

<p>Any help is appreciated!!</p>
