ralk Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Whew... ACCEPTED! (Solus & E-mail timestamped 8:55) Non-trad applicant, two degrees neither of which is a standard pre-med degree (one math/physics, one training to be an allied health professional). cGPA: 3.55; Best two years: 3.95 MCAT: 41R (14P, 12V, 15B) ECs: Research in multiple fields (no pubs, several presentations), child care and mentorship, hospital volunteering in multiple roles, a few random clubs/intramural sports, in-hospital quality improvement project. Interview: Three MMI stations went really well, three were mediocre. Panel wasn't the best interview I've ever had, but went really well. A bit stunned, this was the place I thought I had the worst chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMSAS cGPA: 3.65 (most two recent ~ 3.75) 12BS 10PS 10VR R Completed Masters Above average ECs (extensive volunteer including international, several years of research, no journal pub but conferences, abstracts, presentations, part-time jobs throughout entire UG/Masters) Completely blown away.

tberry3 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Result: Rejected. cGPA: 3.98 MCAT: 36T (13 PS, 13 VR ,10 BS) ECs: Pretty diverse, lots of research, jobs, music, sports, leadership... lots of stuff I did because I wanted to, although not necessarily geared towards med school specifically. Interview: Thought the panel went great but the MMI went poorly. Had 4 interviews and Queen's was the only one I felt bad about afterwards, so I'm not overly surprised! Congrats to everyone who was accepted! I got into Mac and UofT so I'll see you all at Med Games next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lwu018 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Result: Waitlisted Best Two Years: 3.72 (completed Undergrad and Masters) MCAT: 33O (11PS, 11 VR, 11 BS) ECs: Research heavy (5 pubs - 3 lead author & 10+ presentations), crisis line and hospital volunteering for 3 years, leadership and sports activities. See previous posts for more detailed descriptions. Felt relatively confident, although I messed up one station because I forgot a crucial part of the prompt Will accept off the waitlist if the infinitesimally small probability comes through. Thanks Leo and Tberry3 for informing us of your rejections, it gives me some slight hope that the waitlist isn't just a default response to those who weren't accepted. Congrats on your guys acceptances at other schools! PLEASE RESPOND TO THE POLL TO LET US WAITLISTERS BETTER UNDERSTAND OUR CURRENT SITUATION. http://www.premed101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=78592 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Kaiser Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 As foretold by the great prophet Solus at the holy hour of 12 p.m. on May 13: Waitlisted (aka probably not getting in). cGPA 3.63 2 year 3.71 MCAT 10 BS 11 VR 10 PS WS-S Interview: Thought it went very well especially the panel. One mediocre station for MMI. Really could not have done anything different TBH, so I guess my best is not good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
