Neurophiliac Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Hello everyone! According to UBC Med Undergraduate Admissions, emails regarding interview decisions will be sent during the week of December 7th this year. I thought of making a thread (as Fleming did last year) where people can post during the wait and as the decisions are being sent. Let's follow this format as much as possible: TIME STAMP: XX:XX Interview Invite: Invited/Regret Early/Regular Deadline: Interview Date: GPA: AGPA (if applicable): MCAT: PS/VR/BS/WS (and corresponding order for MCAT 2015 with psych section last) ECs: Year: UG, Bachelors, Masters, PhD Geography: IP/OOP NAQ (if applicable): AQ (if applicable): This information is certainly very helpful to all those using this forum. On the behalf of everyone who will currently use this information and those who will use it in the future, I thank you for posting. December 7th is just around the corner, with less than a week away! As much as it is exciting, it can definitely be a stressful time for everyone. Let us all choose to be positive, and enjoy the process as much as we can! Best of luck everyone!

46dr Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 UBC is still accepting the older MCAT though. That is weird. Well, better for us I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothrandir Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 "A total of 573 BC residents who achieved a total file review score of 52.50/100 or more were invited to interview." Why is it 575 in the stats table? 2 who were below 52.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab2185 Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 I notice that as well, I think it might be a mistake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neurophiliac Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 My brother just sent me a prank email with a title "UBC interview invite" I swear I am gonna kill him when I see him this Christmas regardless of the actual result. Hahaha omg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyFlynn Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 There weren't any rejections on Tuesday last year. I think Monday was the only day that rejections were sent out. I think the reason why they don't send out rejections/invites all in one day is for logistical reasons. It may be difficult to deal with emails/phone calls if everything was sent out in a day?

smartpig Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 They send rejections first - survival mode I think invites don't go out until Wednesday Last year this was the trend: Monday: Rejections Tuesday: Nothing Wednesday: Early IP & OOP Thursday: Regular Deadline IP & OOP Friday: Nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neurophiliac Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 They send rejections first - survival mode I think invites don't go out until Wednesday Yup, agreed. If you DON'T get an email today, it is very likely that you will be invited for the interview. IF it is like last year, early invited are on Wednesday and regular invites are on Thursday.

Definitely true. It is hard to deal with a lot of cases at one -- especially when there are a lot of applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab2185 Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Unless they randomly switch it up this year. Can anyone who has applied the last two years confirm if they did the same thing two years ago? Monday - rejections, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyFlynn Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 Two years ago I believe it was Monday: Rejections Tuesday: Early deadline invites Wednesday: More rejections Thursday: Normal deadline invites Not 100% sure though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyFlynn Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 I think they'll probably send OOP rejections first and then IP rejections. Last year it was 3:00ish for OOP and 4:20 for IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
