Summary of Application Experience
Good numbers get you far, but luck will determine the rest of the way. The process can be random so don't place your heart on one single school. Also for Canadian applicants, American application cycles start A LOT earlier than the Canadian application cycle. Many US schools also do rolling admissions and those acceptances can come out by November or even earlier. So take advantage of that by applying early. By comparison, for Canadian app's, you can submit those by deadline and you will still not be at a disadvantage; not so in the US.
