Don't get discouraged if you don't have a 4.0 gpa or a 90+ average. To be fair, I had a lot of volunteer experience and a decent amount of shadowing.

McMomo Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Rejected (Not even waitlisted) 92.6% IP 29/24 Not very surprised since I had a quite cringe-worthy interview- I didn't prep at all since I felt like I did really well at U of T and wasn't keen on moving to London due to personal reasons. My ABS was average/slightly above average. Posting this here to show that GPA and DAT don't guarantee you a seat, seems like the interview and ABS are worth a lot! I'm glad that they're taking this more hollistic approach. Congrats to all accepted! =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromatic Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 AcceptedIP/OOP: IPOMSAS UG cGPA: 3.90DAT: 22 AA/21 PATYear of Study: 2 years post-bachelors (currently working)I'm really surprised. I didn't think the interview went well - questions sometimes felt vague/non-specific and I didn't feel like the content in my answers demonstrated who I was as a person. After careful consideration, I have declined this offer for medicine. Best of luck to those on the waitlist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlyte Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 To all those waitlisted: typically there is alot of movement on the waitlists! The waitlists will start ~10 business days after the first round of offers and will continue over the next few months. Just for perspective, the 2019s' waitlist moved up until a few days before the White coat ceremony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
