    • Hello!  This may seem like a crazy idea and it probably is but I am developing an idea to start a podcast and I will call it the Rejected Premed. I intend to use this podcast for others like myself  who were rejected from medical school and are now trying to figure out where to go from here. Should we continue pursuing medicine or find success somewhere else? How do we stay happy and resilient after rejection and how do we know when to take a break from applying? A lot of students don’t know the answers to these questions, and like myself are still trying to figure it out. This podcast will be meant to provide them with moral support and reassurance that they are not alone and help make these life changing decisions about the appropriate career path to take, as well as how to stay happy in the process.  I intend to do a lot of episodes in interview format where I invite people who were rejected in their first application cycle and delve into how they dealt with it, what actions did they take and what they did to keep themselves in good spirits. Maybe kept applying and found success as a medical doctor anyways,  or they rediscovered a passion for a different career path and pursued that instead and found success, etc.  I strongly believe this content will be of great value to premeds, a lot of whom are lost and don’t know what steps to take, and maybe even beneficial to others who got rejected from professional schools, and faced other types of rejection that changed the trajectory of their lives I thought this forum could be a great place to find potential people to interview! If you are interested in something like this and would like to hear more details please respond to this post and we could get in touch so I can better  inform you about this project and you can decide for yourself if this is something you wanna be involved with! 
    • Any one receive rejection letters?
    • Salut, finissante en kinésiologie ici. Je te dirai que tout dépend de ton intéret, mais le bac de kinésiologie est en déclin d'année en année, il n'est plus du tout aussi bien coté qu'avant. Il est tout de meme possible de le faire, mais je dirai que pour se garantir une place, il faut viser un gpa de 4.2+, ce qui est éxigent meme si la plupart des cours sont relativement faciles. Surtout en deuxième année avec les cours pratiques, l'évaluation est plus subjective, et une petite faute peut te couter très cher, descendant ta note de A+ à A-. Je vais bientot faire un post sur tout cela. Je ne sais pas comment le bac de nutrition a changé, mais si c'était à refaire et que je voulais aller en médecine dentaire, je n'aurai surtout pas choisi kin. N'hésite pas à m'écrire si tu as des questions :)
    • On commence une semaine plus tôt que les autres programmes et on a pas de semaine de relâche à l'automne malheureusement... 
    • Bonjour à tous ! Je me retrouve actuellement face à un dilemme. J'ai été accepté dans les programmes de kinésiologie et de nutrition à l'Université de Montréal. Mon objectif est de poursuivre des études en médecine dentaire et j'ai actuellement une cote r de 31.xx. J'ai entendu différents avis. Il semble que le programme de nutrition ait beaucoup changé et qu'il ne soit pas avantageux comme tremplin. Quant à la kinésiologie, bien que la cote soit plus faible, il semble que l'admission avec une moyenne plus basse soit possible, étant donné qu'être étudiant à UdeM boost ta cote et qu'il est plus facile d'avoir des A+. Merci énormément !
    • Non, les refus/acceptations/ LA cest le 16 mai!! (LA: pour ulaval right away, udem messemble cest qlq jours plus tard) 
    • Salut tout le monde, est-ce que c'est vrai qu'ils envoient des refus avant le 16 mai ? Genre une petite vague de refus ?
    • Merci!! Aussi est-ce qu' il y a une relâche à l automne habituellement?
    • There’s nothing you can do but go crazy but just trying to keep myself busy so time goes by faster and I barely think about it
    • Il semble qu'il y a déjà eu des refus (au moins un déclaré dans ce forum, même si ce n'est pas par la personne concernée) et c'était environ fin mars.
    • Oui ya des gens sur le discord qui okt recu des offres. Au moins une dizaine. A date ça a de l’air de gens qui ont des CRU de 36 et +. Ils ont jusquau 4 mai pour accepter. D’apres moi les offres vont sortir le 5 ou 6 mai…
