MountainAmoeba Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Why!?! Frogs are so cool. They fill their cells with glucose so that the can survive the winter, and re-animate come spring. Frogs are awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiHopes Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Dog almost died once from being curious and approaching a poisonous frog couldn't help but associate it with badness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MT_93 Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I still think it will be May 11th I guess you found out today for UofA CONGRATTTS!!!! Is that your first choice.... Also, makes me wonder if UofC will come out earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiHopes Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Thank you I am honestly still really torn between the two. I will wait until Calgary's final result to reply to the UofA for sure. I like Calgary as a city more, but I like those summers the UofA offers for both travel and research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT_93 Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Thank you I am honestly still really torn between the two. I will wait until Calgary's final result to reply to the UofA for sure. I like Calgary as a city more, but I like those summers the UofA offers for both travel and research. I was the same way when I applied and waitlisted at both a couple years ago, this year I don't have to choose between two . When did UofA say results would be released? ... what is UofC also releases today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiHopes Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I really do believe it's unlikely for the UofC to release anything prior to at least Monday next week. Did you see the whole troll episode yesterday? I called the office myself and Renée was clear. There would be no admissions decisions this week. She said they are aiming for Tuesday, but it could be the couple days after that. Unless they compete with the UofA somehow and now they're going at it 150%, I doubt it would come out any time before their meeting on Monday. The UofA just said results would be out by May 15th, but they just say that as the deadline and they usually send out offers quite a bit beforehand, apparently.

welcometoyourtape Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I agree - I don't think U of C will release this week. If they say it's going to be May 9th or after, let's just take their word. In the meantime, get out there and enjoy the sun! It is supposed to be a nice low 20s in both Calgary and Edmonton this weekend so make the most of it! I know I will be try not to check this website too much - it will still be here in 5 days. Congrats to you, HiHopes, for getting into U of A! I am genuinely so happy for you. I just love seeing people succeed and attain their goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc2 Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 If anyone needs to chat about choosing between a 3 year and 4 year program (if you are lucky enough to have a choice) please feel free to PM me! I had the choice last year and had a variety of reasons for choosing the 3 year program, but there were a lot of pros to the 4 year program. A lot of the choice should depend on learning style, where you are at in your life, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marta12345 Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 After getting rejected from U of A, my only hope is U of C. I passed my interviews but did not get in at U of A . Does U of C and U of A use the same criteria when selecting candidates? Should I prepare myself for another rejection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinalberta Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Just want to bring this up again.....What about CASPER? Do you think it contributed to overall score? I did not receive any feedback as I was waitlisted. But I did submit this past year's grades as it does jack my cGPA up a fair bit. Fingers crossed.

marta12345 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Does U of C and U of A mark the MMI in a similar way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT_93 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Does U of C and U of A mark the MMI in a similar way? NO they don't. for UofA you get a mark out of 7. 4 is average, 5 above average, etc. UofC you get a mark out of 20. 10 marks are subjective: how much did I like the person/do I think they are a good fit etc. 10 marks split up into 5 assessments worth 2 marks each. So there can be, say, professionalism and its out of 2 marks, as well as another 4 worth two marks each depending on what they are testing. Each item will get a score of 0,1, or 2 out of 2, and for the subjective it's just straight out of 10. This info is from Ian Walkers Podcast, not the 2016 one, but the 2014 one.

MT_93 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 It is May 5th and no offers were released sadly... so 3 days left until Monday the 8th, 4 days until Tuesday the 9th, 5 days until Wednesday the 10th, 6 days until Thursday the 11th Did you read the blog? He said May 9th at the earliest. I think latest by May 10th. Either way, just enjoy the weekend and don't think about too much. But on Monday, we can start going crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
