Good. As long as you go into Mac, its easy to move into any program in lv II, as long as you keep the prereqs.

I dunno. Check the admission average they post, it would probably be around that, give or take.

I'm pretty sure that if you're within the admission range, you'll get an offer of admission. When I applied a couple of years ago, I was right on the margin of the cut-off and I got my letter pretty late in May. So just keep your marks up and good luck! =)

McMaster has been sending out acceptances for a couple months now.

co-op
hey , I heard something about co-op/internship within the lifescience program, so how does one get into that and in what year?
And if I'm going into the bachelors of life science program year I, how does one get into the honors program?

There is no co-op for life sciences (according to the undergraduate calendar). There is co-op for other programs though, just browse through the undergrad calendar, co-op programs have "(co-op)" at the end of them.

To get into honours, just meet all the requirements and go to the science office to get transfered. Unless you mean applying to Honour Life Science after First Year. Then that happens in March, I think you can apply to 3 different programs. Then you select which one you want to get into when you pick your courses for second year.
