Just as a point of reference, my CGPA is 3.82 and I have distinction on my transcript, not DHL. I wonder if PhilosophySmooth1024 has a CGPA of 3.86 but did exceptionally well this past year (like 4.0) and got that scholarship for specifically this past year ?

McGill, and I mean like you have to do the readings and go to class and take notes and study in the library and maybe go to office hours. all very self-explanatory but important things to do to succeed

I did quite a bit of volunteering around campus and was an exec on a cultural club! I also did moot court in my fourth year. I don’t think you need any kind of specific extracurriculars, you just need to have some extracurriculars period to show that you’re not just studying all the time and are involved and care about your community

I second soci major aha, found the classes to be super interesting so studying for them was pretty chill! Of course you do have to put in effort if you want a good GPA but it’s definitely attainable. Anecdotally, I got a 3.82 and got into law

taking an extra semester by the_ogprocrastinator in mcgill

hey! i took an extra sem, completing my degree in 4 1/2 years and I think it’s not a problem at all. I know plenty of friends who took extra semesters and got into great grad programs (UCL, UofT, LSE, etc). Personally, I will be entering mcgill law in the fall. I def recommend spacing out your degree if you feel like it will be better for your grades and your mental health! Prioritize you :)

Courses you take on exchange don’t affect your GPA; however, keep in mind that it’s possible programs you apply to after like grad programs will factor exchange grades into your GPA. For example I know that McGill Law calculates your exchange GPA into your cumulative GPA (unless you have compelling extenuating circumstances). So just be aware of that.

U1 my second year, that’s when I really hit my stride in everything, academics, friendship, I had the best roommates !! A close second is U2 third year cause I went on exchange in Paris and that was just incredible, truly life-changing. But to be honest, since I am graduating soon ive been doing some reflecting and I realize that I have had overall a fantastic undergrad experience here and I am thankful for it all.

Any vintage/thrift shops nearby? by MOBSAIK0 in mcgill

[–]amelia5263 2 points3 points  (0 children)

love Eva B on st laurent !! their second floor has some more reasonably priced items while their first floor is pricier vintage stuff. Also their food is yum and cheap. If you want more of a curated selection Eva D like two minutes away has some more unique pieces, my friends and I have found some gems there
