keener12345 Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Hey, I received an invite and got my interview package today. In the package it said invites were based on academics (grades) combined with casper results. But the ottawa MD site states that the ABS was also taken into consideration. Just curious as to which one is correct LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious as to which one is correct LOL So does this mean they didn't evaluate the ABS at all, and it was solely based on wGPA and CASPer?

bins Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Someone called adcom and they said it was ABS and Casper and GPA. They also said LOR was for screening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't really look too heavily into the actually nitty gritty details. As long as they seem real, reliable and are actually positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, someone who got rejected called adcom to ask what basis they used to give interview invites and this is what they were told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
