I was bad waitlisted and I received my email at 7:18. I don't know if that means I'm high on the bad waitlist.

What bin do you think they got up to for French stream? 4, 3.5, 3?

I'm on the bad waitlist, and I've already accepted that I have to reapply. I don't know if I should feel hopeful

Still, I think it would be nice to tell us if they will consider P/S. They can still manipulate the cut offs after--it would just help people who are considering a rewrite based on one section.

I have a choice between starting the PhD program and the Master's. If I were to start the PhD program, I would continue it if I don't get in next year. But you're right; I think I'll just do my Master's.

Take it from me. Interviewed and bad waitlisted in third year. I'm glad I didn't slack off with my grades!

Hey guys, I know that some schools require you to finish your graduate degree before matriculating. If I enrol in a doctoral program and am accepted the next year, but I drop the PhD and finish with a Master's, would I still be eligible? Technically I finished a grad degree. EDIT: Never mind. You can't reclassify degrees.

Hey guys, I heard that you can only interview three times at Ottawa. I looked at the site, and I can't find this information. Is it true?

Moi aussi ! Je pense que j'ai bien réussi l'entrevue. On verra

Haha you're right I guess I'm just getting a bit antsy!

For those who were rejected from the French stream in previous years, did it come as a surprise? Did you expect that result, given your interview?

It's funny to think that our fates have probably already been decided...

Lucky for you, I think there has been talk of dropping the UBC English requirement. What's your weighted GPA for Toronto and Ottawa?

If you go to a DO school, you'll still be a DO in Canada. DOs have full practice rights in Canada, as long as you go through the appropriate accreditation process. I believe that residencies for all specialties except neurosurgery are cross-recognized. However, if you want to practice in Canada from an American residency, you will be under supervision from a couple of months to a year.

ONE MORE WEEK! We're in the final stretch premed101ers!
