BrackenClelk Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Waitlisted. GPA: 3.95 VR: 11 MMI: Thought it went okay. 1-2 stations I felt bad about. The rest were above-average. Anyone know: 1) When next batch of offers come (looked like it was May 26 based on last year)? 2) Roughly what the % acceptance rate is off the waitlist?

Not one station I got too worried about. Got flat-out rejected post-interview last year, and this year I only got pulled off the interview waitlist like... 5 days before I had to be in Hamilton. I live in the prairies. It was quite a trip. More than pleased to see it went well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisencat Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Waitlist (have already removed myself by accepting U of T)Time-stamp: 8 something AM, May 12, 2015GPA: 3.84 VR: 11In province Masters studentCASPer: I think what helped my get an interview two years in a row was that I was concise and direct in my answers. I stated my position or what action I would take right away and then gave an explanation, insteading of trying to explore all points before arriving at my conclusion. This way I also didn't leave any question blank and had some kind of answer/solution (however undeveloped) for everything. I think they are trying to test your ability to make a decision very very quickly. Interview: Some good stations, some okay ones, some weird ones!! sprinkles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panacea Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Waitlist GPA: 3.93 VR: 10 IP CASPer: didn't feel great about it, but a couple of situations that came up were situations that I had personally come across in real life so I suppose that might have helped a bit. I made sure to answer all questions in every section. Interview: a couple of iffy ones but overall felt good. I ran out of time every station though.

radicalphoenix Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Waitlisted. GPA: 3.71 MCAT: 12 physics / 12 verbal / 11 bio In-province, finished my 4.5 years of undergrad at the end of the Fall 2014 semester CASPer: I felt really good about CASPer. The questions made a lot of sense to me and I honestly enjoyed doing it. Interview: Definitely not as comfortable with it as I had hoped. A couple of the stations caught me off guard which I'm sure affected the confidence of my replies. Here's hoping that waitlist keeps moving! Would love to go to Mac. Good luck everyone and congrats!
