This is not used in my admission average, but I am just wondering if mcmaster will look at this mark as a "final overall"

I am quite sure that even if u call mac, they will say the same. "We only count ur top 6" as Silver mentioned.

Why you be taking 8 courses in your last year? Crazy! Drop 2. You only need 6 to get in so why put additional stress?

pretty sure theyre all needed to graduate...

I was in a school in ontario that was unsemestered as well. The school changed after I graduated but I took 8 courses at the same time. Hectic. Anyways, they take the top 6 courses regardless if they are required or not. So they drop the lowest two and they might ask for a minimum mark in a specific course
Meaning math: minimum 60%
but top 6 average should be above 82%

I had to take 9 courses/credits 2nd semester my senior year to graduate. Plus I had decided to study AP's outside of school, so it was more like taking 13 classes.
Completely nuts. And definitely worth it.
