  1. Accepted GPA: 3.73 MCAT: B 12 V 8 P 10 (Average 10) EC's: Strong. Got me the interview Year: 5 year undergrad + 2 year masters Interview: All strong, except one average Also accepted to Calgary. Will be accepting UofA.
  2. I'm going to either UofC or UofA. Now I want to go to UBC
  3. That's what I'm thinking, too. Thanks. I'll probably get the iPad with a keyboard
  4. Yes, that's exactly my concern. I'll have a desktop at home. Do you think an iPad would be sufficient for school use?
  5. Hi guys. Has anyone gone through medical school with using an iPad? My laptop broke down recently and I'm considering buying an iPad for medical school. Can you elaborate on its drawbacks/advantage please? (Also, I'll have an iMac at home for photography/home purposes, so the iPad will mainly serve for in-school/library activities) Also considering a Macbook Air if iPad doesn't work out Thanks!
  6. Results: Accepted GPA: 3.7 on UCAN MCAT: B12, V9, P8 ECs: Extensive (See BC NAQ score ~32) Interview: Felt good, excited Year: 5 year undergrad, finishing 2nd year MSc. Geography: IP
  7. Would it be suspicious if this year I applied as an OOP and next year as an IP for Alberta? I don't have the status this year but next year I probably will
  8. what about Ottawa? i'd have a 3.89~ wGPA according to their calculations. also, since you asked, how are my ecs?
  9. Another question: should i come for a 5th year, or forget that and just do a second undergrad (how long will that take? 2 or 3 years?)
  10. True my cGPA is only a 3.6, but my wGPA for alberta after dropping the lowest year is a 3.79; is that a decent chance? it'd be the same for calgary. yeah i realize my best shots are at those schools. i will consider UT more if i do a masters after my 5th year. for my ECs, here's what i have: PT assistant health records assistant special needs kids assistant chairperson for youth advisory committee freelance photographer (covered conferences) surgeon shadowing in the OR independent volunteer opportunities marketing project leader attended youth conferences volunteered at random events research exp of two years in labs hospital volunteer club volunteering on campus number of presentations on youth volunteering/motivation/first year transition club exec on campus medical first responder on campus the time commitment are anywhere from a couple of months to a couple of years
  11. Hi guys Ive done this before, but i wanted fresh input from you people. here are my stats: (OMSAS) 1st year GPA: 3.0 2nd: 3.64 3rd: 3.47 With those numbers, I know UT, Ottawa, Western, are out for this cycle. I'm aiming for Mac this year even though its a long shot cuz of the GPA (majority of the app is the casper so thats why im even applying this year. hopefully queens as well? (incredibly long shot) in the 4th year, if i get a 3.9+, I can aim for Western (Conditional acceptance) and perhaps by a less of a long shot at Queens with a last two gpa of 3.68~. Ill also go for mac again and UT probably too. ill do a 5th year and again aim for a 3.9+. ill have a two year of a 3.9 for western and queens (decent shot even though cGPA is crap), ill go for UT, Ottawa, and mac also. as for out of province, i can aim for UofC and UofA because I can get the residency status for those provinces (my dad and mom live there and we're planning to move there permanently soon) sooo.. how does that sound? is that realistic? btw, i havent received my mcat scores yet. my ECs are decent im not going to list em here unless someone asks me to thanks
  12. Caesar salad! If you're in med school, how many times did you apply? If you're applying, how many more times are you willing to apply?
  13. My cat yea if he's in the mood. Best advice for the VR section? I write in two days
