cc11 Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Hello, Do you guys have an idea on how would McGill selection process work this year since winter 2020 would not be taken into consideration in the gpa calculation for some students while others who have already graduated might have more credits counting towards their overall gpa (and might be more competitive) ? (don't know if it's clear my English is a little rusty ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopefulpremed98 Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 They just won’t count winter 2020. Gpa is a number how would having more credits affect you? People apply in their last year without their final year grades and people apply after graduating so it’s not like the amount of credits you have affects anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceelbe Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 I think they just exclude your grades from winter 2020 and you hope for the best or something to be honest lol. For those who weren’t in school winter 2020 and aren’t affected, nothing else changes. It will probably either suck a lot if you had great grades in winter 2020, or it’ll be good for you if you did awful in winter 2020. I think they aren’t doing much else to make it more fair. But maybe someone else can correct me if I’m wrong. Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm unsure if it will be enough for this cycle. I'll hope for the best lol. Also do you know if they round up the gpa to one decimal ?
