AI Thread Summary
To join the joint honours program in physics and mathematics at McGill University, a high standing is required, although there is no formal R-score cutoff. Generally, an R-score below 26-27 significantly reduces admission chances, while an R-score above 30 is considered strong, with scores over 37 being particularly favorable. The program is known for its challenging nature, with success rates around 30-40%. Students with an R-score of 30 or higher can feel confident about their chances of acceptance into the honours program.

Hi, there is no formal R-score cutoff (although below 26-27 your chances of getting into McGill are not too good). Above 30 you're definitely golden. The reason the demand high standing, is that the program is very challenging, with success rates around 30-40 %. Feel free to message me for more info.
 
Thank you for your answer, but I want to know if the 30+ CRC is also the approximation to join the hounours program of physics/mathematics, if it's the case, I can relax, my CRC is over 37.
 
Yes, you can definitely relax. Math/Phys will take you with 30+.
 

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Tips for a CS and physics major'

Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
