Bonjour tout le monde, Je suis présentement à U Ottawa en génie logiciel et je compte transférer à Polytechnique pour compléter mon bac. On m'a informé que mon GPA allait être effacé et que mes cours équivalents vont apparaître comme "Y", mais ne compteront pas dans ma moyenne. Je recommence donc à zéro. Ma question est: Est-ce que quelqu'un sait si seulement le GPA de Polytechnique va être pris en compte dans ma CRU pour les applications en médecine? (Au Québec)

Hello, I am a graduating Sec V student and I applied to Brébeuf for a DEC in Sciences de la santé. My Sec IV overall grade average is 94, and this year, it's 95. After applying, some of my teachers started telling me I made a mistake and should have applied to the BI program instead. I have intentions of going to McGill after CEGEP to study medicine (and to become a surgeon, hopefully) and I am now wondering if this mistake will cost me my chances to get into McGill, as some of my teachers said that McGill is very selective and they tend to pick BI students from Brébeuf more than those with a regular DEC. Should I be worried? Thanks, Vyke

Bonjour chers compatriotes, Je me demandais quelle était l'importance du CV / des expériences de vie d'un applicant en médecine. On entend souvent beaucoup sur l'importance du bénévolat, du leadership, de la recherche, etc. dans l'application d'un candidat, mais il me semble que ces derniers ne sont pas beaucoup pris en compte dans le processus d'admission. McGill n'octroie que 10% de la note pour le MMI au CV, et les universités francophones à ce que je sache ne demandent même pas de CV. Donc, ma question est, quelle est l'importance de mes expériences dans mon application? Devrais-je être inquiet de ne pas avoir de position de recherche, ou de position super importante de leadership pour mon application? Merci beaucoup pour votre temps et réponse, Cordialement, Tovarisch -

Hi Everyone!! So I had a couple of questions if anyone could answer it would be highly appreciated! 1) Right now I am in my last semester of CEGEP (I did my CEGEP in 4 semesters, however i started during the winter semester). Obviously I want to apply to med-p and dent-p at mcgill. However, in order to do so that would mean that i would have to wait for a semester (since I am finishing my cegep in the fall). Would i still be applicable to applying for mcgill's med-p and dent-p after staying for a gap semester (not doing any studies)? 2) At the moment i have an r-score of 35.2 which is really stressing me out. Like its not a competitive r-score but its not that bad (I like calling it the grey area). But does anybody know if people with r-scores like mine make it into mcgill med-p and dent-p or am I just dreaming that i have a chance of getting in haha? In order to counterbalance my r-score's uncompetitiveness I have been working as a caregiver and i got my first aid and cpr trainings. Other than that i did some volunteering (approx. 100 hours). I also got some trophies back from high school. But does anybody know if people with r-scores like mine make it into mcgill med-p and dent-p or am I just dreaming that i have a chance of getting in haha? 3) I started revising for the casper but could anyone give me any pointers on whats the best method to study for it. I bought the "**DELETED** casper" book but i found the responds they give in the book too unrealistic because they're very long. So does anyone have any suggestions?

Hey everyone! I just want to ask does anyone know when the invites are out this year ?

Hi! Je crée le thread parce que j'en ai pas vu qui discutais sur ce sujet. Je suis intéressé de lire pourquoi vous choisissez la médecine? Pourquoi médecine plus que pharma, opto, med dent, etc? Au plaisir de vous lire!

Bonjour, Je me demande quels sont les programmes les plus forts pour entrer en médecine? J'étudie à UL en psychoéducation présentement (j'ai 36 crédits de complétés, et j'ai fait des cours de psychologie aussi). L'indice de force du programme est correct, mais pas très fort. Je veux changer de programme, car meme les cours ne seront pas utilies après, si je change de programme. Je voulais choisir bac en psychologie, car le programme m'intéresse, mais l'indice de force à ULaval n'est vraiment pas fort. Est-ce qu'à UdeM ou UdeS c'est mieux coté que UL? En général, quels programmes vous me suggérez? Je ne suis vraiment pas certain. Merci beaucoup! -
Bonjour! Je me demandais quelles universités sont les meilleures pour le bac en biologie (udem, uqam, McGill...)? Ce n'est pas dans le but d'aller en médecine après. Est ce qu'il y en a une avec un meilleur programme en dehors de Montréal (mais est ce que ça vaut la peine de déménager..)? Merci!

Hello everyone, Let us present ourselves: we are student ambassadors of McGill Medicine. Not too long ago, we were in the applicant seats and we sympathize with the anxiety that comes along with that role. In fact, some of us roamed the pages here at premed101 and asked questions of our own in the hope of elucidating some of our worries about the application process and student life at McGill Medicine. We are glad to tell you that we are happy with our choice and this has brought us to pilot this Q&A initiative, where we hope to give back some of the good advice we have received along the way. Please do note that although we are affiliated with McGill's admission committee, the opinions we give here represent an honest and subjective view that is independent from the admissions committee. Now that is cleared up...Dear applicants, please ask away! Wishing you the very best during this application session, McGill Med Ambassadors Questions list (updated infrequently, search is your friend!) MMI Tips Could you describe a typical day at McGill medical school? How much "free time" do you have in the program?What is the general atmosphere between students, do you feel some kind of competition? Are you graded, or is the program pass/fail? What are some aspects of McGill and/or the program that you don't like and could be improved? Information about the MD/PhD program (specifically the interview process) Information for applicants who do not speak French, French language requirements How many people from the waiting list are admitted every year for Quebec university level? Does McGill use APP ("apprentissage par problème") like Udem ? or something similar ? What time the interview day usually ends? Which grades are considered by the CaRMS, as some residency programs allow a certain percentage to the grades obtained during the «pré-clinique»? What is the difference between a task oriented station and a simulation station at the MMI? What should we really wear for the MMI? See also: Should I wear a suit for the MMI? Does it look bad if we glimpse at our watch a couple of times during the MMI? Is there a place where you can check-in luggage (for OOP or international students flying in)? How are the final decisions are made after the interview? Is it possible to apply to both Med and Dent at McGill at the same time? When do we get our McGill email addresses after we are admitted? So do university level in province, NTP in province and CEGEP have different wait lists, or do they all compete under the IP category? What is the immunization process for admitted students? For CEGEP students, would my admission be rescinded if I do not graduate on time (end of May) and take a summer class to graduate before July 1st? How does the admission process works for Ph.D students that are almost done and want to apply to the MD.CM program? Concerning the location of the MMI at McGill - from the information they give, there is a coat check. How secure is this? I have to bring my laptop and school books with me to town... is it safe? What is the everyday academic schedule for a 1st year to 2nd year MD student at McGill? See also: How is the schedule like during FMD? In average, how many hours do you need to study per day? What are the longitudinal family med time requirements? Until which time point in the MD training should you totally forget to hold a part time job? What is the average leisure time you can enjoy per day? Does McGill offer early decision admission? If so, how does it work and when is the application due? Can CEGEP courses count towards Recommended Physiology Courses? Does taking 3 and/or 4 courses per semester lead to an automatic refusal? If an interview is obtained on the basis of a second undergrad, are you required to complete this second degree with a full course load and obtain the diploma? Do you remember completely messing up a station or two but still end up getting in? What role to CEGEP grades play in my Med-P admission process? How many student retake the Med-P year and why? Science GPA vs. Recommended courses ... which are taken into account post interview? How much or how little should I practice for the interview? I applied for extenuating circumstances and I want to know if they will be considered for my admission, should I write to the admission office or should I not ask? Will French affect my learning and interactions with peers? WHY McGill? HOW is the the curriculum structured? Does accepting your McGill Med offer removes you from consideration at Ontario schools? What do they mean by "studies currently in progress must be at a level comparable to past academic performance."? Will my acceptance be revoked?? When are we supposed to send our first tuition payments? Is 26 years old too old to start medical school? How can I join the class of 2021 facebook group? Does the admission committee discriminate against applicants who have a second degree? How does course replacement for science prerequisites work? Will increasing my GPA by retaking courses during fall help me to get an interview? What should I do if my account on Minerva shows that I am supposed to pay international fees even though I am a Qc resident? Are there good study spaces on campus? How many times can I apply to medical school? Does McGill offer public transportation passes? What should I do if my science prerequisites expire soon? How are block exams delivered? Are laptops required? See also: Are there any recommended PC laptops? For those who have two undergraduate degrees: if the first degree had some terms of part-time studying, can we still be considered on the basis of our 2nd degree? Is the exam software compatible with iPads and tablets? How hard is it to get into the program as an NTP? Does the Nutrition and Dietetics program in Toronto registers as a "professional program"? Where can we get some information about reapplication? Is it recommended to do observerships during first year? Does McGill arrange accommodations for rotations outside of Montreal? Can the third-year elective be done outside of Canada? How many weeks of pre-CaRMS electives are there? What does the admission committee mean by "maintaining a comparable academic performance"? How hard is it to match to a US residence if coming from McGill? How does it work when we have to sign a CEQ? When will the FB group of Class of 2022 be created? Is it possible to finish my graduate studies during medical school? Should I expect a formal acceptance letter via snail mail? How are official documents usually delivered? In which building are classes mostly held? Can the science prerequisites be taken at other universities/as online courses? Is the list of reasons for deferral on the McGill Website exhaustive? Do McGill students need to upload a final transcript? When does the security check by CMQ happen? Are classes recorded? Is it possible to re-take on the science prerequisite courses in order to increase my GPA?

Hi! I know there are other discussions currently up but I couldn't find any specific for McGill OT QY applicants. Has anyone who applied to the McGill OT QY program heard back yet, gotten accepted/ offer to nominate or waitlisted? I thought we would hear back by now (end of April- due to friends in previous years hearing back in April) but I still haven't received anything in my email.

Salut tout le monde! J'ai eu la chance énorme d'être accepté dans les 3 universités francophones en 2022, et je peine à choisir! Je pense qu'un thread qui discute des pour/contres de chaque campus ou bien de chaque université pourrait être bien! J'ai hâte d'entendre les recommendations de chacuns!

Bonjour ! J'ai remarqué qu'il y avait beaucoup de "topics" pour suivre l'évolution dans différents programmes en santé, mais je n'ai rien trouvé par rapport à l'ergothérapie. Dès que certains d'entre nous recevrons des nouvelles (admissions, refus, liste d'attente..), ce serait cool qu'on laisse les informations ici pour le programme. Bonne chance à tous pour les admissions!!

Hi! Is it bad to re-upload your CV? I am waiting on an answer from a verifier but I want to upload my documents now just to be safe. I might have to re-upload my CV closer to the deadline at 9pm, depending on what my verifier replies back to me. Should I wait before uploading my CV or can I just upload twice and they will only consider the latest version?

So like, yeah! Hi, cegep student first semester done. I passed the important classes like Calculus and gen. chem. 1, but I failed french and like discrete math, which idk why i have this class but it's just 2 credits and not worth as much as cal or chem, and just saw that it really isn't a science prereq. for mcgill. So I just wanted to say how much does it lower my chance of getting accepted into mcgill in a Bsc. program?

Je suis présentement au cégep et j'essaie de m'informer par rapport aux bacs qui m'intéresseraient (et dans lesquels je pense pouvoir performer et être motivée) au cas où je ne suis pas acceptée en med directement. Est-ce que quelqu'un sait si le bac en sciences infirmières et le bac en physique sont bien cotés pour la CRU (4,0/4,3 donnerait combien à peu près)? Est ce que ce sont des options de bac réalistes? J'ai déjà regardé pour Laval et je suis surtout curieuse pour Udem et McGill :)) Merci à l'avance!

I got into Honours HSS at Ottawa U and I'm still waiting on Anatomy and cell biology at Mcgill. Which program is best to transfer into either premed or dentistry. I'm not too sure what I want to do yet, but I know I love health science and medicine. I want to get a high GPA and I heard Ottawa U is best for that and the courses seem very interesting. However, I am from Montreal and I would prefer to stay here. I also got into life science and nutrition at McGill and kinesiology at Udem. Anyone have any advice on what the best path is to take to get into medicine? -
Hi! Wondering if somebody received news recently regarding the program, courses to register and the orientation? Also, did you guys completed your immunization and BLS?
