does anyone know how much our undergrad grades affect the results? I didn't get it but I thought my application was super strong other than my undergrad grades... it's not like that's something I can improve on for next year, so I guess I might just be doomed ?
I wouldn't count on us all receiving an e-mail at 5pm, yesterday I believe the SSHRC started sending them out around 530 and they just trickled in until 9pm-ish when most people had received it. Obviously, could be different and maybe we will be lucky but best to keep expectations low when dealing with NSERC! The e-mail someone else posted earlier also said "the results will be uploaded after 5pm" so that's pretty vague.
The department knows in advance so sometimes the PIs also know in advance, as far as I'm aware no one has received login info to see their results yet! Yesterday the login info for SSHRC was sent out around 5/6pm EDT so I think ours could come around the same time.
