W: John. I heard that you were planning to go to Canada for your postgraduate study.
M: Yes. My family is moving there for business the coming summer.
W: Oh, I see. Any particular school you are considering to enroll in?
M: Nope. (1) That is why I am meeting you. I know that you finished your Bachelor’s Degree there.
W: Yes. I got my degree from the University of Toronto.
M: Wow. It is one of the top universities in Canada, is that correct?

W: So far the University of Toronto has educated two Governors General, and four Prime Ministers of Canada, four foreign leaders, fourteen Justices of the Supreme Court, and has been affiliated with ten Nobel laureates.
M: That is amazing. Are you familiar with other universities in Canada as well?
W: Sure. You may consider McGill University as another option.
M: I know McGill University is situated in Montreal and it is ranked among the top three universities within Canada and the top 70 worldwide by different ranking agencies.
W: It seems you have done your homework as well. Yes. (4/5-1) McGill offers degrees and diplomas in over 300 fields of studies with the highest average admission grade of any Canadian university, which makes its scholarships extremely hard to attain.

(5-3) McGill counts among its alumni 12 Nobel laureates and 138 Rhodes Scholars, both the most in the country, two Canadian prime ministers, 13 justices of the Canadian Supreme Court, four foreign leaders, 28 foreign ambassadors, nine Academy Award winners, three Pulitzer Prizewinners, and 28 Olympic medalists.
