PopShoppe Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 Status: Regrets Time Stamp: 12:37 Location: IP Stream: English/MD MCAT: 130/127/130/131 - 518 cGPA: 3.63 and 2yr GPA: 3.81 Current year: Finished Master's EC: Strongest part of my application imo, but I suppose I could be very wrong (was rejected from Western). Lots of research & employment. Student council positions and heavy involvement with campus clubs. Only a few volunteer activities, but they were things I was very passionate about. Ton of other ECs based on artistic interests, sports, etc. Guess receiving low marks really does ruin you, even if they were 6+ years ago. Stoked as always for those who got interviews - congratulations and best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
