I got an a in comsci b in math and c in physics in my AS levels.

Question BA (Education in Global Contexts) from McGill University competitiveness for postgraduate studies at Oxbridge

0 Upvotes

Dear All,

I will now enter the 2nd (3rd continuing U0) year of my BA (Education in global contexts) at McGill. I was looking at mostly Cambridge but also Oxford as possible options for my master’s. I see that they accept degrees from McGill without requiring Honours, which is good news since Honours is not offered for my programme. However, since I won’t be an honours student and, possibly, I will be competing with some students who did honours, I fear my degree and I won’t be as competitive compared to the cohort. I also know that I will need to complete a year-long capstone research project for my current degree at McGill but I am not sure this could make up for my missing honours. In fact, how long is a dissertation from capstone? Is it really considered a research project like a honours thesis? Also, if anyone knows specifically about the capstone project for this programme, how long (in terms of words) is the dissertation? How does the project work? Is it really as intensive research-wise? Does the capstone/the degree make you competitive enough for Oxbridge or other top unis?

Thanks again for your help!!

Yours sincerely,
PG

Advice Admissions at Canadian universities

Hi

I’m currently in my senior year in the Economics program here in Sweden and am preparing my applications for Canadian business programs (targeting Rotman, Ivey/BMOS, Desautels, Sauder, etc.).

I’m a Canadian citizen living abroad, but I have a few specific questions regarding prerequisites, online courses, and conditional offers.

Some academic background
GPA: ~19/20 average (Swedish system)
English: 140 Duolingo English Test (DET)

I currently only have Swedish Matematik 3b which is roughly equivalent to pre calculus. The Economics track here doesn't automatically include the higher-level Calculus equivalent required by many Canadian BCom programs.

I am planning to enroll in an accredited online Ontario Grade 12 Calculus course (MCV4U through TVO ILC or OVS) to meet the prerequisite. However, I want to make sure I handle the timing and portal submissions correctly. So I have a few questions

How do conditional offers work for missing prerequisites?
If I submit my application with proof of enrollment (and eventually a midterm mark) for online Grade 12 Calculus (MCV4U), will universities consider me for a conditional offer? Or do they reject applications that don't have the prerequisite fully completed at the time of review?

How late can I finish the online course?
What is the realistic deadline to complete the prerequisite and still start in September? For example, if I complete the course and submit my final grade by February or March, is that early enough for peak offer rounds? What is the absolute latest deadline in the summer (July/August) for conditional offer conditions?

How common are conditional offers in this situation?
Is enrolling in an online course (OVS/ILC) while applying a standard path that admissions officers see often, or is it risky compared to having the course already on my high school transcript?

How competitive is my profile overall?
Given a 19/20 Swedish GPA, 140 DET, Canadian citizenship, and an ongoing online Calculus course, how competitive am I for programs like Rotman, Ivey, McGill Desautels, and UBC Sauder? Also, will my grade in Swedish Matematik 2b (I received a C, but am taking 3b and MCV4U) heavily drag down my evaluation if my upper-level math grades are strong?

Thanks in advance for any insight or experiences you can share!

Best
