> but nothing like the Ivies, Berkeley/Stanford, or McGill/UfT. Wow, you are putting universities of vastly different calibers in the same bucket. McGill/UofT are pretty much large state schools, not at all in the same ballpark as Berkeley or Stanford. For tech recruiting in Canada I found that UBC and UofT were pretty good in term of signal to noise ratio. The best one was Polytechnique in Montreal, but it's really small so recruiting season doesn't last a long time. For med school, I have no clue. I suppose it's about choosing the best program to prepare you for the MCAT, or whatever the exam is in your country.
