Should I apply to Queens? Considering that they haven't accepted anyone with a 9 in VR since 2008. Has anyone gotten into Queens recently with a 9 in VR?

[Savac]

I don't know of anybody that has recently gotten into Queen's with a 9, but I think you should apply if you have the extra money. For reasons already stated on the other thread, you'll be really upset if Queen's is accepting 9s this year and you decided not to apply.

[Raiya]

Haha, I'm on the same boat as you! Good luck with Applications! You should definitely apply to Queens. You have some very impressive ECs and GPA scores.

Consider this round as practice. And you know what they say, practice makes better.
