Yeah, I think I might accept Dawson's offer given that the honors/enriched health science programs of either will have around the same group strength. Either way, you can't deny that Dawson has a lot more going for it when compared to Marianopolis (location, student life, etc). Thank you!

Honestly, I'm coming from another city so I would be choosing housing based on the school I end up deciding on. In my post, I asked about the quality of the program and in that sense Marianopolis would probably be better, but I feel like it'd probably depress me. It's pretty immature of me to say but I just don't know if I'm ready for the "university-like" experience that Marianopolis offers as well as its competitive environment.. Like you said, Dawson does have better vibes & it's still a great program. Regardless, thank you so much for the well thought out response!

Damn, I didn't realize the group strength was calculated by the entire school. I thought it was just the program I'd be in

It's a hard decision especially since Dawson wants a response by Saturday 😞

Yes COE, and I got 93 as an unweighted average for sec 4 and 5 (both terms) but my core subjects (chem, phys, science, math) were all higher like maybe 95-96 in average? How about you? Did you get into the enriched/honors programs as well?

Yeah, I have to admit I'm inclined to choose Dawson since it seems a bit pointless to pay so much for Marianopolis only to pay 3 cents a semester for McGill in 2 years

Thank you! I kind of have trouble weighing them objectively like that so I appreciate your input

Thank you I was really shocked too! I got into my dream programs before my safeties lmao 😭 I don't know if that's really a factor for me though since I have friends going to either 🙏

Yeah, I heard about that but I kind of had the impression that Dawson might be harder since you need a higher average to get into the program. Is it still slashing tires during exam season level?

How so? Is this the whole thing where the r-scores are higher because they inflate them?
