    • Merci! est ce que 117e sur la LA pour les collégiens c’est bon pour rentrer en début juin tho ?
    • Coucou, on est un peu dans le même bateau! Ça fait plusieurs années que je tente de rentrer et Med Vet est la seule option pour moi. Les refus à répétition sont très difficiles et cette année, je vois enfin la lumière au bout du tunnel. J'espère vraiment que nos efforts porteront fruit et qu'on sera dans la même cohorte. Si tu es passionné comme moi, je ne vois pas pourquoi ils ne te prendraient pas. Personnellement, peu importe quel campus, je plie bagage et je fonce devenir vétérinaire! Je te souhaite la meilleure des chances pour ton entrevue et j'espère qu'on se verra en septembre. 
    • Elle indique toujours le même message comme à chaque année. Inquiète toi pas !
    • Most students would still rather do FM even if it is their 3rd or 4th choice discipline, than go unmatched (or do a lab based specialty). I wonder if the previous push to make FM 3 years was somehow rooted in the idea that by making FM less desirable, there may be a true reduction in FM physician supply and increase in negotiation power.  
    • FM is still in free fall. If anybody is paying attention, AB government just released their NP compensation structure. Basically NP can earn more in AB than FM in most other provinces lol. Why do FM when you can just do NP school? If I were looking for a residency spot I'd take that Neuropathology or Medical Microbiology spot over any of the FM spots. At least as a pathologist or microbiologist you can get a salaried position with 400K salary and benefits rather than slaving away as FM earning 200K lol.
    • Si tu cliques sur "voir lettre décision" ou "voir toutes les lettres" as-tu une réponse là?  Pendant un moment, il était toujours écrit "demande à l'étude" et je devais cliquer sur un de ces liens pour voir ma lettre et donc ma réponse.  Sinon contact l'UdeM...  Bonne chance avec ça, tiens-nous au courant!
    • Je suis pas mal sûr que tu seras admis pour les deux et ton dilème serait plutôt lequel choisir parmi les deux  alors bonne chance et bon courage!
    • Est-ce que quelqu'un attend encore des nouvelles de UdeM?? Je n'ai encore rien entendu et mon portail dit toujours demande à l'étude...
    • La LA permet d'avoir une idée, mais tu ne devrais absolument pas te dire déjà que c'est terminé pour toi! On ne connait pas tous les dossiers des candidats de cette année, alors peut-être que tu peux être accepté.e direct ou être dans le haut de la LA. Et comme Justin et moi on discutait, avec le campus de Rimouski, ça peut venir brasser les cartes. Il y a plus de places cette année avec le nouveau campus! Garde espoir  
    • Perso je penses que Rimouski ouvre des places qui pour les gens comme moi, med vet est le seul choix. Ca fait 9 ans que je travail fort pour med vet, j’ai passer beaucoup de chemin et je compte utiliser le manque de popularité possible de Rim pour rentrer. J’ai quand meme un super dossier universitaire par contre . L’année passée j’était 49 eme LA et cette année je suis en entrevue.
    • Y'as tu des stations dont tu est incertain ?
    • je pense que j'ai dans le haut du 3Q étant donné que u laval m'a convoqué en med
    • You should go to the program and the uni where YOU want to go the most. It's not for your parents to choose, they are not going to be attending the classes and do the studying. I know people who studied at McGill and got into med at UdeM, UL, etc. The best choice is the choice YOU want, not what your parents want. When looking at the progression charts for each program, which one seems to appeal the most to you? Did you go tour McGill and UdeM? If so, which uni did you like the most? These are the questions you should be asking yourself because plenty of people get into med UdeM without having done their undergrad their first.
    • I’m really indecisive. My choices for a bachelors to then get into médecine are either: Biomedical at Udem or Physiology at McGill. I’m not sure which one is better cote. And my parents want me to go to udem for the boost. Which is an easier program and which would be beneficial?
