  1. In previous years, interviews went until late March. How do you know they finished on the 9th? EDIT: just confirmed with a friend who's a uOttawa med student, they did in fact finish earlier this week.
  2. I'm currently at Queen's for grad studies. I read this article a month ago and it really bothered me. Did this happen to you late at night when people are intoxicated or did it happen in broad daylight? Here's the **DELETED** thread from Queen's and the accounts of other people that experienced similar situations. I asked my friends because I was concerned that this will happen to me eventually. I've never been called a single racial term in my life but I feel like I am overdue for one. I asked him in this situation what is the best thing to do? If you choose to fight back, you run the risk of getting charged since self-defence laws are so bullshit. With this on your record, your med school chances are pretty much done. If you choose to take it or run away, it's not exactly an ideal solution either.
  3. Alright let's give this a shot, what are my chances? For MD and MD/PhD? cGPA = 3.93 UofT wGPA = 3.96 uOttawa wGPA = 3.96 Western wGPA = 3.96 Queen's wGPA = 3.96 McMaster GPA = 3.93 In Province in Ontario, non-SWOMEN. Never applied before. I will be applying after I complete my 2-year research/thesis-based M.Sc in Developmental Biology at Queen's. I have not written the MCAT yet. ECs: - Physician shadowing for 1 summer in high school - Volunteer at a retirement home for 1 summer in high school. - Hospital volunteer for 1 summer. - TA for multiple courses for 3 years (Fall, Winter, and Spring semesters). - NSERC USRA for 1 summer. No publications. - And a bit of volunteer work that were not long term over my years of undergrad. - Began classical training in vocal music in 3rd year. Awards: - Entrance Scholarship. - Queen's Academic Excellence Scholarship. This is getting crazy competitive. My friends with similar GPA and WAY more extensive ECs than me only received one interview each this cycle.
