[Acetylcholine]

As a long time follower of the forum and a first time poster, it's really exciting to be writing one of these. I've just finished my 3rd year at McMaster and my stats for future applicants' info are as follows:

 

OMSAS GPA: 3.97

Did not write the MCAT

Interview Feeling: felt it went very well immediately afterwards, but as the days and weeks wore on I managed to over-analyze to the point where I doubted almost every MMI station. Advice for future applications: as hard as it is, keep your mind occupied once the interview is over! It really is too difficult to assess your own performance, especially with an MMI.

 

McMaster has always been my first choice and I am very excited to accept the offer.

 

Looking forward to meeting the class of 2012 in August!

[cateyes0223]

This is my first time applying to all medical schools.

Currently at Carleton University, Neuroscience Honours, graduating this year

 

OMSAS gpa: 3.96

MCAT: 11 PS, 10 VR, R WS, 11 BS, total 32R

 

ECs: 7 years at cancer centre, 3 years on first aid team + 2 leadership positions on team, 3 years with therapy dogs program, tutoring, competitive dance, tennis, cultural association leadership position, coordinator of youth festival, summer NSERC, choreography, environmental club leader, etc.

 

Applied to: U of T, NOSM, U of O, Western, Mac, Queen's, U of A, UBC, U of M, and U of C

 

Interviewed:U of T, NOSM, U of O, Western, Mac, Queen's, U of A, UBC

 

Accepted: U of T, NOSM, UBC, Mac (Received offer off the waitlist for Waterloo campus on May 26)

Waitlisted: Western, Queen's, U of O (bad)

Rejected: U of A

 

 

I felt that my interview went very well overall, was only stumped by one station. However, I tend to give concise answers and have time leftover at the end so that kind of worried me, but usually the prompts filled up most of the time.

 

Will be attending U of T in the fall, might have been Mac if I'd received an offer at Hamilton, but I don't want to go to the Waterloo campus.

 

Good luck to everyone still waiting and congrats to those accepted!!
