<p>I know that you are probably all tired of the incessant “can I get in??” threads around here, but considering that the admissions panic is over and the new school year’s ahead, I was wondering if anyone who’s been accepted would mind glancing over my stats and hedgng a guess as to my chances. McGill is my first choice currently (rising junior) and I still have a bunch of time, but any insight for how I’m doing right now would be MUCH appreciated :)</p>

<p>Right now I’m VERY interested in the Arts & Sciences Cogsci program, but I’ve heard that the BA/Sc program is the hardest to get into. Of particular concern is the math requirement (since I would otherwise be largely bypassing that if I only applied to Arts), as I have done alright in up to Algebra II but what I’ve seen of precalc has been quite daunting.</p>
<p>Any comments would be awesome! Thanks.</p>
