    • C’est où que tu reçois l’acceptation ?
    • je pense que c’est soit le jeudi 28 mars ou en avril parce que vendredi et lundi sont congés.
    • Correct, it’s super weird but oh well!    and thank you!!
    • On a eu exactement la meme cote R et la même méthode de pratique. Bonne chance, ça a marché pour moi!
    • Hey, j’ai été accepté en physiothérapie à McGill aujourd’hui. J’ai pas reçu mon quartile Casper parce que je l’ai fait le 22. J’ai environ 34.1 de cote r globale (mais 35.9 de cote r dans mes cours de sciences + math ). PT n’est pas premier choix. Donc je voulais savoir, quelqu’un connaît la pondération casper/ cote r à McGill pour PT? Est-ce que croyez que si j’ai été accepté d’emblée avec une “basse cote r globale” c’est que j’ai un bon casper?    merci! 
    • honnetement, je vois pas trop comment être avec une classe pleine de monde full compétitive au BI est inspirant. Je connais des gens qui l'ont fait et ça a peu d'avantage et il y a beaucoup de matière superflue qui n'est pas nécessaire à un niveau collégial. Au final, le diplome de BI est peu utile à moins de vouloir étudier en Europe. Dans un Cégep comme Brébeuf, les classes de DEC normal sont assez fortes pour que le choix du BI donne peu d'avantages sur la cote R.
    • If I were you, I would still apply in PT everywhere, you never know what can happen! McGill, UdeM, UL, UdeS, UQAC (on their website it says you need at least 30 so it might be worth a shot there!) and UQTR (new program as of fall 2024) all offer PT. Given that there's one more program this year (UQTR), there are more chances for you to actually get into PT. Just know that you'll need to do the CASPer in French (except for McGill and UdeM, they accept the English version if I'm not mistaken), so since French is not your first language, you might want to practice more beforehand. Also, UQAC doesn't require the CASPer. If I were you, I would also apply in OT (McGill, UdeM, UL, UdeS, UQTR all offer OT) because it's easier to switch from OT to PT than it it from kin to PT, in case you don't get into PT this year. Best of luck  
    • Bonjour, Je cherche deux personnes avec qui me pratiquer pour les MEM avec qui je pourrais être consistente. Merci:)
    • THANK YOU!!! Just to be clear, aside from a single 2-week elective after match week, we don't have another clinical elective after our last in December? I had no idea fourth year was so laid back (aside from the match stress lol).    Crossing my fingers for you for tomorrow. 
    • «La Faculté de médecine de l’Université de Montréal admettra un plus grand nombre d’étudiantes et d’étudiants à la rentrée de l’automne 2024 et aménagera de nouveaux locaux pour les accueillir... » https://nouvelles.umontreal.ca/article/2023/12/20/de-nouveaux-locaux-pour-la-faculte-de-medecine-de-l-universite-de-montreal/  Ce n'est pas uniquement pour pallier au manque de place. Ce serait une aberration de payer 17 M$ pour pallier à un manque sachant qu'on a besoin davantage de médecins. Il se pourrait cependant que le bâtiment ne soit pas principalement pour les personnes en prémed, mais il est clair que cela va libérer un espace considérable dans le campus principal.
    • Oh snap! Perfect for post-match emotions
    • Free icecream day tomorrow. Also, there is a promo for new accounts of the DQ app: 1$ mini blizzards.
    • Thank you for sharing 
    • D'accord, merci pour l'information. Est-ce que c'est toi qui leur a demandé par courriel si tu avais été transféré dans le contingent régulier?
