RGK Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Yeah but what's the chance that somebody won't show up for a medical/dental school interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB07 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Yeah but what's the chance that somebody won't show up for a medical/dental school interview It's not just if people don't show up, you could get interviewed later if people reject acceptance offers.

doc5 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 FB07: Won't they just take somebody from the post-interview waitlist instead ? I think so too, from their website: Waiting list for interviews A small number of applicants will be retained on a waiting list for interviews, should an interview slot become available (if an invited applicant declines). If no interview slot becomes available, these applicants will receive an official notice of refusal shortly after the interview dates for their applicant cohort. so up until the interviews is how long the wait list will remain open, after that, students on the waitlist will be refused.

medafter30 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Hi, I have a question: what is the cut-off of interview selection for OOPs? Thanks. Hope this help http://www.mcgill.ca/medadmissions/applying/after-youve-applied/admission-statistics-2015 http://www.mcgill.ca/medadmissions/applying/selection-process (Look for the selection process pre-interview, The assessment of supplemental documents is carried out for approximately 4 to 6 times the number of candidates we intend to interview. For example, if we intend to interview 50 people in a particular applicant category, the supporting documents of the top 200-300 files in that cohort are evaluated. So essentially it depends on the pool, but i hope the statistics gives you some idea) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
