InstantRamen Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Yes. You most definitely triggered an emotional response within me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 My apologies! I know it's a stressful time but I'm not sure when invites are expected and having these threads is very helpful to keep everything organized both for this cycle's applicants and futures ones. Good luck everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdj78we9jtf2o3mgfvj298j Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Looks like they're starting to send offers, judging from the invite thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogachick Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Are today's invites for those who applied to the MD/PhD stream or just regular MD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepit Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Does anyone know if UofT is flexible with interview rescheduling? I'm from OOP and I'd like to fit some of my interviews on the same weekend. Also, would I be able to still reschedule after I've confirmed I will be attending an interview? I have to reply by Feb 1st and I'm still waiting on a few Ontario schools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotASerialKiller Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Do they send out rejections in waves too, or are they all at the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insomnias Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Are today's invites for those who applied to the MD/PhD stream or just regular MD? I applied MD/PhD and received an MD invite today for the end of February. No word about the MD/PhD program, but I assume I wasn't rejected, since I live outside of Canada, and they said that people with substantial travel distances will receive later interview dates. ETA: I emailed them, and they said MD/PhD interview invites will come out in ~2 weeks. If you're OOP, I'd suggest interviewing them, since they rescheduled my MD interview to the MD/PhD weekend.

yogachick Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks for finding out! Someone on the other thread posted that they received both MD & MD/PhD interviews today, so that's kind of odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardknocklife Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks for finding out! Someone on the other thread posted that they received both MD & MD/PhD interviews today, so that's kind of odd. Yeah I received an MD/PhD interview today. Maybe its just the OOP ones that they will send out later, but I know they typically try to schedule the MD/PhD interviews for the first weekend (especially for IP) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowserJr Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 So can I assume that everyone who got an invite today are MD/phD applicants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepit Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Are you an MD/phD Applicant? I'm not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepit Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 So can I assume that everyone who got an invite today are MD/phD applicants? If you're worried about not receiving an MD invite, it's because of the way UofT rolls invites out, not because of anything to do with MD/PhD status.

donnyforMVP Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 U of T is releasing for the interview dates of Feb 27 and 28. If you do not receive an invite today that doesn't mean anything except for the fact that when/if you do receive an invite you will probably be interviewing in March or April.

bellejolie Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'm confused - are MD/PhD interview invites also rolling? Or are they just in one day? I'm really confused :S The reason I ask is because MD/PhD is only on one weekend. So @donnyforMVP your message has confused me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepit Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 You can only reschedule if you have a direct interview conflict. Sucks to hear that, the costs of flying out multiple times from Western Canada are prohibitively expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkaidon Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 So anyone down to do interview prep? Specifically I'm at uWaterloo so if anyone here is in the KW area you down to join our interview prep sessions? Also skype meetings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtnScience Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Is it accurate to say that the later you receive an interview invite (if you do), the "less sure" they were about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sykern Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Is it accurate to say that the later you receive an interview invite (if you do), the "less sure" they were about you? Not at all. They review applications on a rolling basis (in batches). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkaidon Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Is interview prep helpful for their set up? Maybe not as much but just getting comfortable with how you answer questions, talking about current events and such so that we can come up with opinions if asked about them. The group I'm prepping with also has Mac interviews that we're prepping for so we'll be doing MMI prep as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
