Why McGill?

[Guest bearman14]

Wow, the McGill forum is pretty quiet!! I'll try to break the silence...

 

Now that almost all schools have released their acceptances, I am faced with a dilemma - a pleasant one, but a dilemma nonetheless. I am confronted with having to choose between the comfortable and relatively familiar (UBC), and the foreign and unknown (McGill). As of now, I am leaning toward McGill, and I was hoping to hear any convincing arguments from current students as to "Why McGill"? I have read many of the previous posts, and looked into the curriculum, etc, etc, so I think at some deeper level I'm probably looking for reassurance that a small-town B.C. boy who's French is c'est terrible will still find contentment and happiness in Montreal So if any of you (current students, prospective students, people who live in Montreal, relatives of people in Montreal, dogs who live in Montreal...) have any thoughts on this, feel free to fire them my way!

 

Also, I will be in Montreal June 9th-12th to check out job/housing opportunities and to try to cement my final plans, so if any incoming students or current students want to hook up for dinner, coffee, or the like, let me know. Dan/defenst, you had mentioned you would be there around that time - are your plans still the same? Let me know. Thanks.
