Life Sci at MAC!
Anyone know when the next round of offers are coming? Would an 85.3 be sufficient enough to get me in? I heard the high cut off from last year dropped. Do I stand any chance at all?

Nobody could predict correctly whether or not you'll get in.

Just cross your fingers and wait for the last round of offers, I think they go out early-to-mid May.

Yes it is stressful not knowing if you are going to be accepting into the program and university you want, but it's best to ignore this anxiety and focus on finishing your high school year really strong. Don't fall behind. And besides if you're accepted you're going to get an email from them. If you email them they are going to tell you to wait or not reply at all.

If you fall behind and you end up getting accepted... well remember you also need to keep up your marks so that you keep your admission status.

Good luck!

Since ever year is different, it's best not to worry about what HAS happened opposed to what WILL happen.

Well since you can't function properly without knowing, I'm going to lie to you and tell you that you definitely got in. The only problem is that you need to do reallllly well on your exams or they'll revoke your offer! Get crackin!
