Thank you (and thank you to everyone who said congrats)! I only had one book review and one grad-student conference on there, so I was a bit shocked at the score! I didn't even have an MA thesis on there because I literally just handed it in last week. I'm not sure whether or not they take into account what year you're in when figuring out how many pubs you should have (maybe they thought well one of each is fine for an MA)? I did have a SSHRC for my MA, which I've heard gives you a better chance, and a lot of scholarships from undergrad. My undergrad grades are pretty exceptional I'd say (nothing but As on my transcript) and my MA grades are average.

Got my letter today in Montreal! Awarded a CGS with a score of 16.4/20 (I was in committee 3)

I didn't get a letter today in downtown Montreal, but I did get an email from McGill GPS! It was just an automated email saying that I had received a fellowship so I don't know which one, but McGillians might want to check your email! (ftr I just finished my MA at McGill and am attending Concordia in the fall so it was my current school, not my future one). Also if you don't have an email waiting don't get discouraged they may not send them all at once. Just figured people might like to know this info.
