    • Oui merci ça me donne une idée! J'avais seulement appliqué à l'UQTR et ULaval, donc j'attends des nouvelles de Laval! L'UQTR était mon premier choix par contre donc je suis assez déçu, surtout que je ne comprends pas vraiment.
    • Allo, j’ai été admise en biomed et en bio à ULaval et je me demandais le quel des deux programmes serait le mieux pour appliquer en medvet plus tard? Est-ce que biomed c’est difficile? Merci!
    • Wow, ça me surprend! Avec cette cote et ce percentile Casper, tu devrais être accepté quelque part! As-tu appliqué à d'autres universités, seulement ULaval? Moi c'est un peu compliqué...  J'ai 3,33 dans un bac dans un autre domaine (complété il y a environ 10 ans). J'ai aussi une maîtrise.  4,10 dans un certificat (non complété). 4,25 en linguistique (bac presque complété). Percentile Casper= 2.  Je suis 14e sur la liste d'attente.    Je ne sais honnêtement pas si ça t'aide, ce n'est pas très clair pour moi comment on évalue mon dossier. 
    • J'ai reçu un courriel et dans le portail ma réponse est liste d'attente. Il y a un fichier PDF avec la réponse et mon rang sur la liste d'attente. Vraiment désolée pour toi. Je te souhaite des bonnes nouvelles pour ULaval. 
    • Merci, à toi aussi @prayforthebest!
    • Sûrement oui!   Si ce n'est pas indiscret, quels sont votre cote Z et votre quartile au Casper (pour ceux qui ont été admis ou qui sont sur la liste d'attente) Personnellement j'ai 4,12 de cote et dans le 3e rang au Casper J'imagine que c'est mon entrevue qui s'est mal passé ou la cohorte qui est vraiment forte cette année:/
    • J’imagine que la réponse avec la place sur la liste d’attente doit se trouver sur l’e-mail envoyé de leur part
    • Oups! Je parle de l'UQTR pour le refus!  
    • Coucou! Tu parles de quelle université ?  
    • Hello! Comment est-ce que vous avez su que vous étiez sur la liste d'attente? Honnêtement j'ai été refusé et vu mes notes et mon Casper je m'y attendais pas du tout...   J'attends de voir ULaval
    • Haven't heard of this happening here in Canada, but it's worth checking with Canadian medical schools directly to be sure.
    • Moi aussi je me pose des questions! Elle avait probablement un cv bien garni.   
    • Félicitations pour McGill! Je me demande comment tu as invitée au MEM de Mcgill (puis acceptée) avec une CRU qui était trop basse pour le seuil min de Laval et Sherb? McGill n’est pas l’uni qui mets le plus d’importance sur la CRU? 
    • I don't feel as though I "went out of my way" to mention your GPA and ECs, but I figured that because you put so much detail into your initial post, a more wholistic answer that takes your entire circumstance into account rather than saying how a single element of your application will or will not affect you (which is not helpful) might be more helpful to you. It seems you already have everything all figured out though and you don't need help here. I'm not going to get into a full argument with you here. Especially since your default response is to resort to personal insults. I do however withdraw my comments on your maturity and amend my initial post that with this type of attitude and ability to take feedback that maybe spending another decade learning in a gruelling environment is not for you.
    • Merci beaucoup c’est gentil!!
