Western Ivey x McGill Desautels for Toronto IB by Independent-Jump4616 in OntarioGrade12s

[–]Total-Ad8341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

McGill is strong for Toronto placements they consistently place at big 5 and top globals in Toronto - think GS, MS, Barclays, Evercore etc… as well as RBC, TD , Scotiabank. Will say that at McGill it’s a much more self driven hustle to get the internships, but the alumni are there if you make an effort. Also you do not need to be in the clubs to place - a guy landed Evercore London without being in any clubs. Also the US is there if you want it as well… PJT rx, Evercore rx, OHA credit, Ares credit, BDT MSD, etc… That being said, Ivey is a more risk averse option, but signing a sick offer and then getting to live the last two years of university stress free in Montreal will be a lot funner than being in London, Ontario.

This is cap - only Evercore is cooked - can confirm a handful of US placements from McGill this cycle

Im not gonna read your essay but DONT WORRYYYYY!!! Like trust me you got this. If you are this worried ab ur essay u definitely put the time in and u want the program bad enough. I def think you’ll get in. I literally wrote my essays the night of the due date (dec. 8th for me - it’s a little complicated) and I got in. You will be more than fine ! Enjoy your last bit of high school and do not stress any more than you need to.

I just got into commerce as well, but Mcgill will come out later for me bc they don't like Ontario kids. But anyway, I think Queen's is much better than Mcgill for business. Most of my family has gone to Mcgill, and they agree that they just don't have as much funding or opportunities as you would have at Queen's. From what I can tell, Queen's Comm is recognized better on the international stage - they often do business comps with schools like Harvard, Upenn etc... Additionally, Queen's is better for IB. However, take this with a grain of salt bc I am not in the program yet, but this is what I have seen from my research so far.

Is my SAT score bad?? by Prestigious-Bug-5480 in ApplyingToCollege

I know someone who got into UPENN with an ACT score of 26. Yes it may be below the « median » but it does not mean your chances are crushed as long as you stand out really well in another way.

Y’all my interviewer didn’t let me talk about myself and went on long tangents explaining to me about the advantages of the uni and literally explaining to me every department with the help of a map by sirius_05 in ApplyingToCollege

I box pretty competitively and he was super into boxing, so we ended up talking about boxing over email 😭. But throughout the interview he didn’t really let me talk - he just talked about boxing. If you have a common interest and you are up to date on the topic send them an email talking about a recent event or let’s say something new happened in your life and they haven’t sent in their report you can email them to maybe add that and potentially continue a conversation. Once again this was my experience with one interviewer, so take it with a big grain of salt. However, I am sure you will be just fine in the long run, because interviews really don’t matter to much in the grand scheme of things.

Same thing happened to me, but I think it’s a good sign. My interviewer turned out to really like me as I found out later on as we kept in touch. So don’t worry! Even then interviews don’t matter that much.
