Guest wjc83 Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hey Guys! I'm from Ottawa Ont. and I also just finished my 3rd year in BHSc at McMaster. This is my first time applying and I got acceptances from U of T and McMaster (waitlisted at Queen's). I had a hard time deciding between the two schools, and although I love Mac I think U of T is the place for me. GPA: 3.98 (OMSAS) MCAT: 9/14/R/13 (VR/PS/W/BS) I'm also really into Ultimate Frisbee so if anyone is interested in some pick-up, let me know!
