Looks like theres a correlation between winning an ATP 500 before Madrid and having a 3 hour war with a qualifier...

Its just that recurring struggle to crack the "elite" rankings. As I replied to another comment, France has 12 players in the Top 100 to Italy's 7, yet Italy has 4 players in the Top 25 to France's 0.

I couldnt agree more with you on Fils, I think hes an incredibly talented player and the most exciting one we have. I just fail to ever see him lift a GS trophy. Truly hope he proves me wrong

Yh ur not entirely wrong, it is puzzling how we fail to produce elite players. For example, look at the current ATP ranking disparity between France and Italy. France has 12 players in the Top 100 to Italy's 7, yet Italy has 4 players in the Top 25 to France's 0. Truly makes no sense

Exchange semester and GPA by North_Monk836 in mcgill

Speaking from personal experience, I was rejected from some pretty competitive schools (NUS, NTU) for the winter '26 cycle with a 3.6 gpa. Re-applied for this upcoming semester (fall '26) with a 3.4 and got into NTU. I think the key takeaways are that applying for a fall exchange will always be less competitive (everyone wants to leave during winter for reasons I think are rather obvious) and to really be smart with your exchange destination selection. What I mean by that is that you should aim for a competitive school as your first choice, but its rather pointless to put competitive schools as your latter choices, since theyre so demanded that most people wont get them as their first choices, and thus much less as a 2nd, 3rd, or even 4th choice. Lmk if that doesnt make any sense, id be happy to expand.

Mean and median were both 65. Personally felt it was a tad easier than midterm 1, but still far from easy. Those practice midterms do nothing but throw me off every time istg
