[quote=Anonymous]McGill is very selective and difficult to be admitted to. You need a minimum of 3.8 unweighted GPA in Gr.10-12 as a cut-off to even submit an application. 39% of that selective group get in, but people without that GPA don't even apply so the percent number is different than the US when any B student can apply to an ivy league. Also, to apply to McGill you need an A- minimum in every year of English, Science and Math (one B+ unweighted will put you below the cut-off for a BA application). You also need a minimum threshold on ACT/SAT to even apply. There is no "holistic application" in Canada like there is in the US. Cut-offs reduce the number of applications (denominator) by a lot so the admission rate of 39% seems deceptively high.[/quote]
