Butterfly_ Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 TIME STAMP: 10:28am Result: Rejection Early or Regular Deadline: Regular AGPA: 86.37 MCAT: 508 ECs: Non-Trad Geography: IP Interview: Average NAQ: 24.74 AQ: 31.33 So choked. Would have been great to study close to home. But I guess living in a different city will be an adventure! Alberta (or Ontario) here I come!

SandraC2017 Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 TIME STAMP: 2:14 EST Result: Waitlist Early or Regular Deadline: Regular AGPA: Around 88%? I don't remember exactly MCAT: 509 ECs: Extensive and long-term. I'm a non-trad applicant. MSc completed. Geography: OOP Interview: Average. I didn't think it went particularly well... I definitely messed up on a couple of stations; however, I think I excelled at the writing station. For some reason, I KNEW I would get waitlisted. I just knew. Don't get me wrong, I'm very thankful to still have a chance Congrats to those who were accepted!! To those who were rejected, I'm so sorry... I know how hard it can be. Please don't take it personally and know that a med school acceptance/rejection has little/nothing to do with your character and value as a person.

I think you hit the nail on the head - our culture is crazed about this path, and we all have bought into it being an indicator of our value. It's not, and it won't make you happier day to day than doing another thing you find very meaningful medmermaid and SandraC2017 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never assume, because anything is possible! It is less likely than at other schools though it seems. There were only 23 waitlist offers last year.

I thought about what I would do in case of a waitlist and I think I would plan my life as if I wasn't getting in and then in the chance that I did get an offer would figure it out at that point. I know you can't make an assumption that you've received a rejection (it might not move a lot but it does move!) but I tend to be a "plan for the worst, hope for the best" person SandraC2017 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
