The apparent magnitude (m) of a celestial object is a number that is a measure of its brightness as seen by an observer on Earth. The brighter an object appears, the lower its magnitude value (i.e. inverse relation). The Sun, at apparent magnitude of â27, is the brightest object in the sky.
McGill University. Built in 1821, McGill University is the oldest university in Montreal, Quebec's largest city. The university was founded by Scottish merchant James McGill, and that accounts for the university being an English-language school. McGill covers an expanse of two campuses with 11 faculties of study and 300 disciplines.
The purpose of a separate collegiate education level is to make post-secondary education more accessible in Quebec, as well as to provide proper academic preparation for university. There are both public subsidized and private colleges, with the public CEGEPs having little or no tuition fee.tudents who follow a general studies program in Quebec complete six years of primary school (grades 1 through 6), followed by five years of secondary school (called grades 7 through 11 or secondary 1 to Secondary 5 in English, however only called Secondaire I to Secondaire V in French).
