Neurophilic Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 A premed gunner told me it was a equivalent of a 10 and not very good for McMaster. I took his word for it. Edit: Actually now that I did some more research 128 is not bad. It will be right at the cutoffs too for Western and Queens I think? If you compare the percentile range to the old MCAT it would be greater than a 10, more like an 11. Nobody really knows what the cutoffs for western and queens will be this year, however, I believe that a 128 should be good enough for both schools.
