Unlike the University of Waterloo, which wants an alphabetically organized list of your academic awards, McMaster’s first question asked what they would need to know to “understand you as a whole person.”
A whole person?
Something tells me that McMaster isn’t wondering if I’m missing any fingers or toes. And I have the feeling I can’t spend all 1500 characters on, “McMaster rules and Toronto SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS!” I moved on to the next question, hoping it would be easier.
It wasn’t.
