[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McGill grad here from many years ago. Several of my dorm friends "graduated" in December of their Freshman year. There was a chemical engineering course that was notorious for being the reason why students failed out - it was called Intro to Chemical Engineering, or ICE for short. During one of my junior year exams, the professor announced before the exam started that he was planning to curve the exam by 20%, and would likely curve it by 40%, he did, and the average was still a C+. On the final exam in a sophomore CS class, 5 people out of 80 passed the exam (55%+). I got a 45%, which was curved up to 85%. McGill could be no joke at times.[/quote] I have a kid interested in McGill - social sciences. How do we learn about the drop out/kick out rates? I think they'd "survive" but I am not sure I want them in an environment like that[/quote]
