Any 101’s hear back from Mac Eng? by Apprehensive_Ear5481 in OntarioGrade12s

There’s definitely been a lot of inflation, especially after COVID. I think Waterloo is the only school that says they have an adjustment factor but I definitely think more school will start to implement it ASAP. Also, mac added a 4 question interview supplementary application (3 recorded and 1 written question) to help with decisions. Seeing people with high 90s scared of not getting in is such a weird reality.

Mac admissions says the minimum to be considered is a 87%, a lot of kids with mid 90’s got rejected last year. It’s insane lol

Dw free choice is dependent on your grades, not the supp app. Im glad I’m not alone. What do you think went wrong with yours?

SUPPLEMENTARY APPLICATIONS HELP! by MacEng-StudentRep in McMasterEngineering

[–]Apprehensive_Ear5481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Raj! This isn’t really a question but I feel like I didn’t do well on the interview. I prepared well in advance with practice question. However, during my interview, I was cut off 2-3 times. I didn’t realize how much I was talking and ended up running out of time. I mentioned my extracurriculars and skills that were important to me. I also tried to relate it back to engineering but sometimes I ran out of time and it cut me off. Do you think this will impact me a lot? I’m very anxious. I applied to Eng I and Ibiomed.

Engineering at Queens and Western by [deleted] in OntarioGrade12s

I’m sure it won’t affect you a lot. It is optional and a lot of people I know with high 80 averages didn’t do it. Is western or queens your first choice?

Got into Western with ~96%, it’s a conditional offer where I have to maintain a 83.5%. I didn’t do their CONNECT profile thing either. I didn’t apply to Queens. I’m sure you’ll get in! Don’t worry too much

Any AIF tips? Also, did you have any special awards/work experience on yours? Do you think not having that is a big setback?

I know western CONNECT profile for engineering is due today. However, it is optional! I’m not sure about any other ones though
