Congratulations to you!

I still haven' heard back, so my chances are clearly very slim now. Was feeling discouraged leading up to this day, but now I'm feeling hopeless, really.

IP

MCAT: 505 (CARS 130)

ECs: A ton of health related volunteering, leadership positions in most current volunteer positions. A ton of work experience, including clinical research. 

Interview: I felt good about 5/8 MMI and felt pretty good leaving the traditional, compared to previous years

Congrats to everyone else accepted, good luck to the waitlisters (I've been there twice - it's the worst), and good luck next year to everyone else! I've had a lot of disappointments, but today cancelled out ALL of that. Keep at it if you really want it, and you'll get in!

Awesome, congratulations!  I also have a PhD and will be applying to MUN this coming September (although I am OOP) -- I would be interested to hear what you think about the interview process and if your age/experience seemed to really help you -- this is a great example of how MUN is so holistic in their selection process!
