@pjimin My son is U0 studying economics at McGill. He has found the academics at McGill to be incredibly rigorous (and he comes from a top HS in the Boston area). Exams are tough (McGill is known for this) and there is zero grade inflation going on. He feels that a number of his friends at McGill are nothing short of brilliant. Are there some goofballs? Yes, but every school has them.

He has adored being in Montreal. He goes to clubs with friends, has gone to some great festivals, With friends he has explored other neighborhoods. And yes he has taken advantage of having Mt Royal literally outside his dorm.

You have three great options. Choose the school that you think is the best fit and where you will thrive. When you are dealing with three schools like McGill, Georgetown, and Northwestern, your paths coming out of school are limitless. So it’s more important to be at a school where you will be happy and thrive.

Congrats again…and good luck!
