Anon-19 Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Okay so right now, it seems that, ***POTENTIALLY***, those with the button received an offer from mac. But this doesn’t mean everyone who applied to Mac didn’t get in!! Last year, not everyone who got into Ontario schools saw offers at midnight, if that offers any comfort! And for those waiting with multiple interviews and see nothing, I’m pretty sure you still have a chance at your other schools, this seems specific to just mac.

I really hope you're right because, again, there are some people with lower stats like me and probably did really well on CASPer and have button. And others with amazing stats and even some who got interviews at uO with amazing stats who don't have button. So what is this crazy formula Mac has created that leads to both of these situations multiple times lol?? Yes ABS and LOR might be things they've evaluated but it seems very unlikely for Mac.

People waited HOURS after midnight last year after not seeing anything on their OMSAS only to get accepted and celebrate the following morning!! Let’s just keep our hopes up!

hehe123 Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 From what it seems that I've read, there is no correlation between the button and GPA/CARS, and possibly even CASPER - although there is some correlation with a mac interview.
