Some days I’m like ‘I bombed the interview there’s NO WAY I’m getting in and I’ll prepare for the worst’ and other days I’m like ‘Maybe it wasn’t so bad let’s look at rentals in the area for Sept’ ... ugh lol this is an emotional roller coaster At least. you had an interview ... Mac was my only school and I feel like I could have really used an interview to help myself for that hijkl and justamom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, it doesn't help that Ottawa is my only interview and my GPA is the lowest of the low since they rank you by your GPA+interview score post-interview Hang in there guys... I'm so stressed out and I would start resenting myself immediately after I feel any hope. I even dreamed I didn't get in on a rainy day lol But that aside, our Ottawa interview score is the deciding factor because everyone (at least for the English stream) would be 0.1-0.2 between each other for wGPA whereas the difference in interview scores will be so much larger. I'm so glad I'm not alone in all this though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabeprazole Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 Our live countdown until May 12, 12:00 AM (since there were reports of people seeing results at midnight): https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/wfh?iso=20200512T00&p0=1178&msg=OMSAS+May+12+DDAY&font=serif Set the time as Guelph since that's where the OMSAS office resides. EDIT: In the event that it is instead May 12, 9:00 AM: https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/wfh?iso=20200512T09&p0=1178&msg=OMSAS+May+12+DDAY&font=serif hijkl and short_stack 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The uncertainty of whether all offers come up at the same time on OMSAS, or whether you got waitlisted or not just adds more anxiety. I’m gonna try and sleep before midnight on May 11th and just find out the next day. Although I don’t know if I’ll have that much restraint when the time comes haha hijkl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keener12345 Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 Good luck everybody! Hoping it works out for y’all. Was in exactly this same place a year ago and I know how anxious everyone must be! haha with regards to the OMSAS glitch I binge watched all the hangover movies and saw premed101 blowing up. Decided to check and was sweating as I logged in. Was thankful to see a U of T offer! Hopefully it wasn’t a glitch and same thing happens for u guys this year and u can celebrate throughout the night!

newmy88 Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 I have a 'would you rather' question that I'm curious about: Would you guys rather have a set date that we find out about decisions (such as we have now, May 12) OR would you rather not know the day we find out, but it would be guaranteed to be earlier than May 12 (for example, any day between the last Ontario interview date and May 11) kind of how interview invitations went? It would be quite the gamble! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conditional knockout Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 I hate countdowns, so painful. I'd rather it come randomly, that way every minute I live is exciting It was so much easier back when we were waiting on interviews, probably cuz we were out and about. It's more painful right now cuz I can't get my mind off of it by binging on shows cuz I have so much school work to do over these few months hbmed and tomatoegg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be quite the gamble! I’m currently waiting on UofA and it could be any day before May 15th. In my personal experience, this is actually excruciating. Waking up every single day not knowing what’s going to happen is making me very anxious. What makes it even more nerve wracking is that UofA releases decisions on the application, and the email notification comes hours later. So, we are left with checking the application constantly, thinking any moment could be THE moment. On the other hand, I’m very calm with UofT. I know that nothing is going to happen until May 12th so I have no reason to worry every day about what’s going to happen.

The internal battle has got me thinking about what I'm going to do to improve my application if I don't get in again. Getting a better job and bolstering ECs is nearly impossible with the pandemic right now. Might be time to go back to school for something different. Fingers crossed none of us will need to use backup plans this cycle! helpinghand and theevilsloth 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
