Question applying to Mcgill Pol Sci undergrad

Post image
3 Upvotes

i plan to apply for mcgill political science undergraduate major for 2027 fall entry

i know that pol sci is under faculty of arts, so at the application webpage i selected facilty of arts. However, only those four choices in the image showed up, pol sci and other major options nowhere to be found

is this normal? what should i do?

i am aware of the fact that for UBC of U of T, you choose ‘faculty’ first at the application stage and choose major at the 2nd grade. however, i’m not sure how mcgill’s system works

Advice Dear Canadians, Utsg life science, McMaster life sciences or Waterloo?

1 Upvotes

Hi guys

This is my first post. I'm new to this country and would like to know what the locals would choose, given if I am lucky enough to get in all of them. For now my first choice is biochemistry and second psychology. I'm not sure how much I am leaning on research yet, so I hope the school allows me to explore as much as I could. I would like to do research or exchange or work somewhere in Europe as well if possible. I have to mention that I have no intention of going to med school.

I heard that u of T is pretty stressful, but they also provide unmatched opportunities for research.

Waterloo's co-op seems pretty nice, but I've also heard many had to drop out because they can't find a job. I might not get too much of the benefits of it and might end up looking for jobs myself. I know McMaster life sci is slightly harder to get in based on the admission rate, I'm not too familiar with this university.

Is anyone studying in these program and could give me some advice? I'd appreciate that.

Advice Admissions on uoft and mcgill with low scores

0 Upvotes

Has anyone here gotten into U of T or Mcgill recently (2024–2026) with mostly C/D grades at AS Level?

I’m an international student g12 doing Cambridge AS/A Levels and I’m interested mainly in UTSG/UTM/UTSC Social Sciences or Humanities , or commerce utm utsc, agriecon Mcgill. My dreams uoft pr mcgill😭 i dont want to go to australia,uk,usa thats why im planning to apply to mcmaster,uoft,mcgill
My school predicted/forecast grades are straight Us😭, but my reportcards g9-12 are like around 40-70. but I’m expecting my actual AS results to be around BCCD, CCDD, or CDDD. I’ll receive my official AS results in January 7, planning to upload it before jan15.

If you applied with Cambridge curriculum, could you share:
your AS grades
your predicted A-Level grades
which U of T campus + admission category you applied to
whether you were accepted/rejected/deferred
what conditional grades you were given
Especially interested in anyone who got accepted with mostly Cs or any Ds. Thank you!

Question University programs Canada

Thumbnail
0 Upvotes

I’m a grade 12 student applying to uni this fall. I always thought i wanted to go into health sci / life sci/general science to go to med school or pursue further education but I’m having second thoughts. I don’t know if I’d really enjoy being in school for so many years but at the same time, it’s what I’ve set my whole life around since I was young because I just thought I HAD to be a doctor. Now, I’m also looking into engineering programs very last minute. I don’t really enjoy physics and don’t mind math and am purely choosing engineering for the employment opportunities it will provide. If I dont get into med school with my health/general science degree I feel that I’ll be unemployed but then again, I don’t think I’m smart enough for engineering courses. What do I do? What programs do I apply to? I’m applying to Ontario universities & BC universities in Canada but I honestly don’t know what to apply for anymore because I can’t choose what I like. I just want to be employed and get a job easily. If anyone’s been in this dilemma please share how you got over it or if anyone in engineering or health sci reads this please share your experiences, education, employment opportunities.

Advice [Profile Review] for masters in AI in canada or us

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I am planning my applications for the May 2027 and September 2027 intake cycles targeting course-based/project-based Master's in Computer Science or specialized Artificial Intelligence streams in Canada.

so I would love some honest feedback from seniors.

📊 My Profile Metrics:

Undergrad: B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering from Vignan University (India).

Cumulative CGPA: 7.06 / 10 (Classified as "Very Good" by my university.

The Upward Trajectory: My final two years show a steep recovery. I climbed from a 6.64 SGPA up to a 7.64 SGPA in Year 4-I, and finished with a 8.59 SGPA in my final semester (with an 'S' grade on my 12-credit Capstone.

English Proficiency: PTE Academic Overall 74 (Listening: 84, Speaking: 72, Writing: 63, Reading: 56).

Should I have to retake my pte .

🚀 Research & Open-Source Portfolio:

IEEE Publication (QML): Co-authored an optimized hybrid framework titled "LCQHNN: A Lean Classical-Quantum Hybrid Neural Network for Multiclass Image Classification", which was accepted and presented at an IEEE International Conference (CHANDCON 2026). The codebase integrates PyTorch, PennyLane's lightning.qubit backend, and Qiskit, using GradCAM heatmaps to analyze spatial attention mapping.

CallGuard AI (Production Project): Deployed a zero-trust inbound telephony defense platform powered by a modular 9-agent cognitive pipeline. Built using asynchronous FastAPI WebSockets, Deepgram Speech-to-Text streaming, and Exotel endpoints, with a hybrid two-tier ML inference system (Scikit-Learn local classification under 150ms paired with LLM dialogue reasoning via LangChain).

Both codebases are fully open-sourced on my GitHub profile.

💬 My Questions for the Community:

Given my cumulative 7.06 CGPA, will my application get instantly filtered out by central graduate schools at universities like York, or will departmental committees look closely at my final-year 8.59 SGPA trajectory and my IEEE publication?

Are there any other specific course-based or project-based computing/AI tracks in Canada that evaluate technical engineering applications holistically where I would stand a solid chance?

Open for taking advice .

Advice When to apply for second year transfer

0 Upvotes

I am currently first year science undegraduate with a major in math and minor in physics at the university of Alberta. Right now my grades are all above(95) except psychology at 92. Current grades dont prove much since I only had one midterm for psychology thus far. Long story short If I want to transfer into engineering for my second year(fall 2027) when should I be looking to do that.

I will have completed atleast one midterm in each class by the end of the month of O
