I'm a 36 years old french canadian construction worker on a day off and i have absolutely no intension in going back to school and i really don't know how i end up here and why i watch the whole thing. But hey students of McGill...keep going alright everything's gonna be fine!

[DownieLive]

Great graphics and storytelling buddy. Your video quality keeps improving! Loving it!

[idag]

Thank you so much. As a French student applying to McGill, I feel kind of overwhelmed by the challenge sometimes haha. If I could get into this university, these are definitely advices I'd apply - it was helpful and efficient.

Let me just say, I loved how this video made me feel like we were having a discussion one on one. This information was insanely helpful. I’ll be applying to universities this year and although I don’t know which ones I’ll be getting into, let alone if I’ll be able to get into McGill, but this is exactly what I needed to hear and I’ll be sure to remember your advice. I’ve recently grown a love for McGill and not because of its reputation but because of its location, having a spin on a program I adore, the events, the opportunities, and more. Anyway, I appreciate you taking the time to make this video and wish you the best in your entrepreneurial journey 👍👍

[daphnebaker]

I'm coincidently starting at desautels as a finance major in the fall and this is by far the most helpful video I've seen to date. So thank you for that!!

[diwanumam]

Sensible advice. You also managed to bring out some niche points that i never saw anywhere else. Please keep up.

[sherinsayrany]

I'm down to go through university for round 2 just because those tips would actually have been so useful. this was amazing. i hope everyone who is applying to go to university watches this, even if it's not McGill!!!

[cecilabbey]

Can I just say your camera quality is top notch….. it really made me stick to the whole presentation from start to finish 👍

[claudiorodriguez]

I just got accepted into McGill and my stress and anxiety level is through the roof. This video helped me soo much you have no idea!! Thank you genuily

[TamNguyen-cdds]

As an international student applying to Mcgill, I'm really grateful to your advice. Hopefully, I can enter Mcgill and enjoy my life.

[sourav]

I am not even going to Mcgill, just came here for no reason but ended up suscribing. Last part of the video is really awesome

[doseofyasmeen]

Im going into my third year and this video still helped me a TON! Keep it up!!

[lucasduncan]

Man this is a banger. thanks bro, genuinely helped

[alannathompson]

Thank you so much 🥺💜
I honestly feel a lot lighter and encouraged💜💜💜

[SuperDouche]

I fully agree with this. I'd say point 11 is so key especially. Great vid Will!

[yidanwang]

Thank you! I am soo luck to watch and know these tips before I attend to McGill!

wow, the timing of this video that was recommended to me is actually so perfect it is scary. So I'm in grade 12 highschool i took a sem off and i even started my own biz and applied to mcgill as well, i know university will not teach me the skills i need to succeed in my OWN business but i feel like it would be a huge risk not to go as i don't know where my biz will be in the next few years.. but yeah i totally agree with you, universities can't really teach you what you actually need to succeed in your own biz. but also would it be a waste of money to go to uni..that i'm v concerned about..obv do not want to spend thousands on sth that will not help what i want to do in the first place

[kristanxavier]
