    I just realized that I accidentally put McMaster Health Sci as a program that considers extracurriculars at 13:27 to 13:30. This is a mistake! McMaster health science does not ask for extracurriculars and I apologize for the mix up!

    I just want to say, congratulations for getting accepted into the HARDEST PROGRAM IN CANADA!!! This is my dream program, and I know how difficult it is to get in. I love that you're willing to help other aspiring health sci students! Thank you so much!! Best of luck xx

    Hey! Congrats on your acceptance. I’m drafting my responses for the 2021 supplementary application right now and I’m just kind of confused on whether I should draft responses to all 5 of the questions. On the actual supplementary application, do you have the ability to choose between option A and option B for questions 1 and 2?

      heyy! choose the option that you have more ideas to write on (or if you’re confident that you have brilliant ideas in store for one of the options) of course that comes after considering both options and determining how good of a response you are able to write..wishing you the best of luck!

    Thank you for making this video!! It was very helpful. I'm going into grade 11 next year(currently gr10) and I'm really stressed about how I can prepare for uni admissions.
    What do u think about admissions for uwestern health sci? I've been maintaining a 93-96 average throughout highschool and I'm pretty sure I can keep that until grade 11 and maybe grade 12.
    Also if u don't mind me asking but did u go to a prestigious or a well known high school? I'm curious to know if highschool rankings affect admission decisions.
    Mcmac health science is my dream uni, once again tysm for the informative video 💗💗

      Hi there! Congrats on your academic achievements thus far! If you can maintain that mid-90 average, you are pretty much set for any program you're interested in. I went to a public Catholic school that, in my opinion, is not prestigious or well known whatsoever. We don't have IB or AP (anymore) and I would consider it just an average high school. I don't think highschool rankings affect admission decisions but I have noticed that a lot of mac health sci students are from the IB program lol. Thank you for your support and I hope this helped!

      School's will consider extracurriculars if the program you're applying for is competitive. Some will have additional information sections where you can talk about extracurriculars but for the majority of programs, if your grades meet the requirements, you'll get in.

    Hi! so I am taking ENG4U in summer school will this affect my application for McMaster Health Science because I saw you commented on someone's post that it can lower your GPA in some programs in UFT and Waterloo. Also, do you think they would consider average 92 percent if the supplementary application is above 95 or does it only apply for averages above 93 percent?

    • @JeanneLin
      @JeanneLin  4 роки тому +2

      Hi! McMaster accepts summer school credits without penalty so don't worry! Any average about 90 will get your supplementary application considered. Your supplementary application score combined with your GPA determines admission or not. In terms of percentiles, that likely varies every year and I don't have a definite answer:(. I hope this helps!

    👋 hello, I’m planning to take 2 musics which is U and M, advanced function, English, biology, chemistry, and calculus. I already have 96 for 12M music. I heard calculus is really hard. So my question is if my marks are over 96 except calculus which could be my top 6 courses, does it matter if I get 50 for calculus? I heard calculus is not recommended in health science and the students who did not have a credit for calculus needs to take in first year. So, is it okay if my calculus marks are low when if my other subjects are high enough?

    • @JeanneLin
      @JeanneLin  4 роки тому +2

      As long as your top 6 average is 90 and above, you're all good! Nothing else other than the supp app matters. Also, Mac health sci only needs one high school math credit so they'll only consider the advanced functions mark. Calculus is also not a required course in the Health Sciences program and you don't need to take it first year.

    I'm not applying to Mcmaster health sci, but I want to apply to other life sci programs from Toronto, Mcmaster, Western, etc., and maybe Queen's Health Sci. I get 90's in most of my courses but I went through a lot of life issues for my first quad, in which I took Physics and Biology. I got a high 70 in Physics (worst) and somewhere in the '80s for Biology. This quad master I have Advanced Functions and Philosophy which I know I can get 90's on since I'm doing better now. My remaining courses are English, Calculus and Vectors, Chemistry, and Media Arts. All of which I believe I can also get 90's on. Since they only calculate the top 6, do you think they would accept me if I had a low 80 in Bio but 90's in everything else? Thank you so much in advance, you truly are an inspiration! :)

      Not a dumb question at all! Grade 11 marks are shown on your OUAC and schools may accept you early (November/December) if they're really high. But ultimately, it's your grade 12 marks that matter in the end and schools won't accept someone if they have super high grade 11 marks but bad grade 12 marks.
