drtrumpet Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Has anyone's application status changed from 'Ready for Review'? I'm a current student at McGill (and OOP at that, so I don't consider my chances to be all that high), and unsure as to whether this might affect that speed at which my file might be submitted for review...

B.O.B Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 My application status did not change. Although the preliminary results are only expected in 2 weeks from now. https://twitter.com/aedmedmcgill Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaturalKiller Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'm pretty sure your status will remain as "Ready for Review" until they release the interview invitations (sometime on Feb 4th), at which point it will probably change to something along the lines of 'supplemental documents required' (if you got an interview). The supplemental documents being two pieces of photo ID I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolsamuel Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 You must check the the status online. Though there is less possibility of its change, you need to be sure about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bee723 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Have any OOP students received notification from admissions yet? On their website it says that today is the target day for sending out invites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drtrumpet Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 I've just checked, and my status has changed to 'refused'. I'm not too surprised, I'm OOP, and despite currently attending McGill, my 3.81 and 36Q were obviously not sufficient. I thought I wrote some decent essays though, but I'm not sure if they were even read... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippocampus Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Mine still says "ready for review"... any others have "refused" under their Minerva? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I wrote some decent essays though, but I'm not sure if they were even read... They do read it. I got called saying that they missed my last paragraph (problem with the pdf). They asked me to send it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bee723 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Mine says "Ready for Review" too but at this point I don't think it means anything. They could just be updating the statuses and haven't got around to posting ours yet. Sorry to be a downer, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmathematics Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Mine also still says ready for review... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacloche Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Mine has been changed to "refused." I'm OOP, 3.91 degGPA and 36R MCAT. I guess my application didn't cut it! Good luck to everyone else waiting for a status change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistachio9 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Refused as well. 3.88degGPA 34S Good luck to others! Edit: Forgot to say, I'm OOP (From UCalgary). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmathematics Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Looks like they pulled a Calgary and either accidentally released rejections or they are updating each status individually as they go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippocampus Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 I think it is more likely that they are going down some sort of list... last year invite emails went out late at night, I am assuming that they will continue to update rejections throughout the day and then later this evening email those invited. Nerve racking indeed. I'm still waiting.... still says Ready for Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamham Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Rejected. OOP (from UTSG). cGPA=3.9. Mcat=34S. Thought I wrote decent essays too, but the McGill system does not benefit me since all my A+s are the same as As. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmathematics Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hopefully everyone finds out today instead of Feb 4th. Not much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMagnum Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Status: Refused cGPA: 3.72 MCAT: 39S ...guess I didn't make the cut! Hope everyone else sees better news than this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephemeros Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 They updated their twitter with "Currently entering decisions for the MD-CDN category. Due to the volume (+1000 apps) this process may take more than one day." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Organeer Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 I don't get why it's going to take a day to put in all the 'rejected' statuses. Lets say they have ~10 MD-CDN spots and lets say theres like 150 interviews or something...Don't they just have to reject 850 all at once? They obviously already know who they are rejecting and who they are inviting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippocampus Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 There will actually be 30 interviews.... That's how many there were last year for 10 spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan19 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 There will actually be 30 interviews.... That's how many there were last year for 10 spots. didn't they interview 50 ppl last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
