Kanadee Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 TIME STAMP: noonResult: Wait ListProgram: MDwGPA: above cutoffsMCAT: above cutoffs Interview: I did great on practice interviews but then got nervous on my actual interview. There were some good parts and some awkward parts so I really wasn't sure if the interview went well or not, but I know it wasn't my greatest interview Year: Graduated Geography: non-SWOMEN I want to cry. Is there a "High/Good Wait List" status this year or is it just "Wait List"? Is there really no way to find out how much of a chance we have?

Too many wGPA's to keep track of)MCAT: 12/11/15Interview: Hard to say, but I guess it went well? Interviewers were responsive and seemed interested/engaged in discussion with me, I made them laugh a few times, etc. At the very least I managed to get through it without saying anything idiotic.Geography: OOPWill be declining in favour of UofA. Hopefully this helps some waitlisters out. Congrats to all that were accepted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJJ Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Timestamp: noon Result: Low waitlist Program: MD wGPA: 3.75 MCAT: 10/11/11 (swomen) Interview: Felt really good but apparently was not enough. Feel blindsided. Yes I don't have to best stats but I felt that my interview was strong. Why bother even interview me if GPA and MCAT were going to screw me in the end. Feeling super frustrated...

worstcasescenario Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Accepted to London GPA: 3.94 (I think, going by the "two best year"s thing) MCAT(PS/VR/BS): 14/11/12 ECs: Meh. Decent, w/ volunteering, a writing grant, musician stuff, but otherwise not stellar. Year: Finished undergrad last year. SWOMEN: Nope Interview: Thought it went terrible. Maybe only shined on a few questions, but on the way out I really felt like I didn't show them who I am. Felt like garbage, and watched the MMI video with impending doom. I kind of swung from that to "pretty good" and back and forth after that. Imagine my surprise. I was so convinced I was definitely out, especially because I got mid-waitlisted last year. Absolute shocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedBird Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Timestamp: 12:10 PM Result: Good waitlist i think - "In recent years, applicants in your position on the Wait List have received an offer of admission." Program: MD Year: just finished 4 year UG 2-year GPA: 3.84 --> question. they want you to send in your transcript with your final grades. does that mean that they will take your most recent year into account? thatd be fab bc i finished this year with a 3.97 which boosts me a lot obviously. Ive been worried about my GPA. MCAT (PS/VR/BS): 10/11/11 SWOMEN: yep Interview: felt really good, did a lot of prep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesternMan Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Timestamp: 12:06 PMResult: Accepted - London campus Program : MDYear: Finishing MastersGPA: 3.892-year GPA: 3.94MCAT: 12/11/12 SWOMEN: No ECs: Pretty good (5 years hospital volunteer; limited leadership roles in academic club, mentorship club, and social/cultural club; lots of extracurricular activities in dance and music; research assistant during undergrad; CIHR scholarship for 1st year of masters) Interview: Excellent rapport. Very comfortable and conversational with lots of smiling and joking. Really struggled with some situational questions in the middle (one of the questions I couldn't answer at all), but for the interview on the whole I communicated a clear focus, maturity, and enthusiasm (I think). I think I started strong and ended strong even though the middle was terrible.I did my undergrad and masters at Western and I will finally be doing med school here too!
