Anyone Applying to McGill Law? Forum

[Globetrekker]

Apparently some decisions are starting to trickle in... I hope the Faculty realizes how much I would like to be apart of it!

Seriously...I about stop breathing every time I check my status---and I'm not much of a status-checker as it is. Here's to hoping I'm "Ready For {a good} Review."

Aside from a few schools in the US (and they know who they are at this point I'm pretty sure, I've made that well clear from the apps ), studying law at McGill is something I instinctively crave.

Does anyone know why McGill advertises it's GPA median as 84% and 3.7? Last time I checked a 3.7 isn't an 84% average..

McGill is one of my top choices but my GPA is definitely not a 3.7. I speak French and a few other languages, have a good resume and other great "soft" factors. And I hear that maybe being from the US would help?

They probably mean 84th percentile.

Thumbs down to your username.

I can't say anything about McGill law, but McGill undergrad is fantastic, as is Montreal. For breakfast, you must try Chez Cora. Just down the hill from McGill.
