Thanks db2290... Thanks bhikhaari... Your advices are highly appreciated, I have already sent the graduate students' affairs office an unofficial copy for GPA conversion. I will wait to see what they will come back with. In case of a negative response, I have read somewhere that McGill can overlook the minimmum GPA in 4 cases, two of which are:1- Claiming that the GPA doesn't reflect the real abilities of the candidate (Though I have no idea how to prove that other than the good letters of recommendation plus giving me the chance to porove it during the masters itself ) 2- He/She graduated since a long time.
