    • Tu veux changer à DMD cette année?
    • moi aussi j’ai été admise! c’était nettement plus rapide que ce que le directeur de programme m’avait dit. j’étais tellement contente! vas-tu accepter l’offre? moi c’est déjà fait!
    • je suis d'accord sur ce point. Le but d'expliquer "ce que tu as appris& comment tu vas appliquer cet apprentissage dans le futur" cst  de démontrer que tu as acquis de la maturité à travers la situation et que tu a pu saisir une situation négative et de la tourner en apprentissage. Il y a beaucoup de façons de communiquer ce gnr de message sans nécéssairement dire mot pour mot "j'ai appris que...". Parfois même, dans mes pratiques, j;ai trouvé que stick avec ce gnr de formule peu donner un air un peu "réponse pré-faite/ inauthentique" donc j"ai souvent évité ce gnr de formulation ds mes MEM (à part si je sentais que ça "fittais" avec mon ton).  Tout ça avec un grain de sel, comme je ne sais pas ce qu'ils évaluent/si j'ai bien performé. Je doute aussi beaucoup de ma performance, mais il faut aussi se souvenir que les réponses qu'on peut formuler avec un recul seront toujours plus riches/meilleures que ce qu'on peut dire sur le coup.  Courage, je suis tout coeur avec toi  
    • Sous toute réserve je crois que oui. Mes deux programmes sont pris en compte pour le calcul de ma moyenne
    • Comme Radd dit, tu peux le calculer avec ton nombre de crédits par cours, sinon tu vas l'avoir avec ton relevé le notes:) La date varie un peu en fonction de ton programme, donc je te mets le lien ici https://registraire.umontreal.ca/dates-importantes/disponibilite-des-releves-de-notes/
    • Rejected at DalPT - OOP 3.86/4.0 GPA 4th Quartile CASPer Directly relevant experiences
    • That's honestly the sad reality of primary care in Canada rn...Aside from BC, working condition and pay disparity have only worsened for FM docs in the past decade and even people who enter FM don't want to do primary care care when they graduate - and instead of improving things and ensuring high quality of care, gov prefers to fill the gap with NPs and IMGs (although I do hope residency programs still maintain a high standard when matching IMGs). This is classic exploitative capitalism - "oh this work is too hard for you? We'll find someone else who will be willing to do it" kind of mentality; except in this case, everyone (workers, gov, patients) will eventually lose... As for CMGs going Unmatched, I still think the vast majority of those are due to the fact that they don't want FM/Path/Psych and prefer to do a gap year to re-match the next cycle. Unless someone has serious red flags, no reason a CMG would otherwise go unmatched after the 2nd iteration.
    • t'es capable de le savoir en fonction des notes que t'as eues, tu peux le calculer toi même  
    • Heyyy je sais qu’on est pas obligé de compléter un bac mais plutôt avoir fait 60 crédits universitaires dans 1 seul programme pour appliquer à usherb mais Ecq vous savez si je fais des cours hors programme, leur note vont compter dans ma moyenne? 
    • Waitlisted for Dal PT… NS Applicant,  3.82 GPA, 2nd quartile Casper. 
    • Quelqu'un sait quand est-ce que le GPA de la session sort habituellement environ ? J'ai hâte de savoir mon nouveau GPA avec la session qui vient de finir ! 
    • C'est l'UdeS. Bizarre que tu n'aies pas de 300$ à payer. Je l'ai fait finalement hier et ça m'a bel et bien coûté 300$.
