Thanks so much! I bought Magoosh and am reading the ETS official guide, so hopefully that will help. Thank you so much, good luck!

Thanks I'm struggling a lot with math, and I feel like math is taking up A LOT of my time that I could possibly dedicate to verbal (I'll try to aim for a 160, but unsure), so I guess I should slow done with my math and begin with verbal since it's that type of program; do you know what is the average for UofA? How long did you study for the GRE if I may ask? And do you have any tips for the AWA section (how should I study for it exactly)?

Prior to studying, I got 145 on both aspects. I haven't begun full-on studying yet, but I imagine I will end up in the 155 ranges I think?

Oops, I meant GRE (Can't edit my post for some reason) - I have a GPA of 3.81 right now (sub-GPA probably around a 3.9) but I am struggling studying for the GRE, so I was wondering what's the importance of the GRE results relative to everything else.

Hey there! For those who got accepted to Dal or UofA, what were you GPA stats like? Thanks

Hey! I'm a major in Psychology, but the problem I am having is completing my general human physiology requirement since they do not accept McGill's biology class (BIOL115), but do accept the Concordia's equivalent (which does not make sense, BIOL200). So I am also missing 0.5 of the human biology requirement, even though I technically did complete it in CEGEP (they won't accept it which is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING ugh and I don't have time to do an inter-university exchange). What human physiology classes have you completed if I may ask to satisfy the 1.0 credit? (since apparently now all of a sudden you cannot combine classes with both asterisks). I haven't decided yet about the research course since I still have to do interviews with professors to see if they could supervise me - but I think it will either me psycholinguistic related or simply a psychology research project (since I will probably just assist a graduate student and won't have time to create my own experiments). And about your psychology department issue, what class is it if I may ask? Maybe I can help you out (i.e., give you the specific people you can refer too). UofT has by far the most awful prereq list and seem to have a thing against McGill since they literally accept equivalent classes at Concordia (sigh). And in terms of the research methods prereq, I emailed the lady in charge of admissions, and she told me all McGill students have to take the class elsewhere (Concordia, etc.) since there is no equivalency in McGill (to her knowledge) - PSYC204 does not apply.

Hi guys! I'm applying next year (for Fall 2018). I know it's quite early, but since this summer I will be preparing my files, I would like to get a bit of advice for those who have been through this hard process! I am currently a McGill student, with a 3.75 GPA (however subGPA will probably be in the 3.85 area), and have about 2 years of laboratory experience; 1 where I volunteered for 5 months, SLP related laboratory, and the other where I have volunteered since the beginning of my undergrad (non SLP related). I have also had experiences with different needs children, working in two specialized summer camps. I am hoping to also complete a 6 month thesis course to somehow brighten up my CV with a McGill prof (however I was wondering if the thesis is not SLP or linguistics related, would that disadvantage my application?). I've also wanted to volunteer at an SLP clinic, however I am not sure whether it will be one - on - one working with an SLP (which is required for all Ontario universities). I have worked with an SLP for 14 hours (the minimum), but have had an extremely hard time finding an English SLP, since I live in Quebec. I will also be taking the GRE exam (for Dalhousie and UofAlberta). I was wondering if you guys had any advice on how I could imporve my chances? I also wanted to apply to UofT, but they seem to have somewhat changed their pre-reqs classes. It says 'research methods', however prior to that they would have accepted statistics I (McGill), however now, they no longer accept that class, and additionally, the classes that they do accept, no longer exist in McGill! Is there a way that they would still accept statistics I or? Additionally, I received two equivalency approvals from another university (that my class that I took is equivalent to their classes), however the McGill classes are not listed as a pre-reqs at UofT and Western - would it be okay if I simply provide the equivalency letters that McGill has provided or should I also get an equivalency check through my desired SLP universities? Congrats on those who got accepted and for those who didn't, there is always next year Thank you
