fremulon Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Did you get hit with a fat waitlist from McMaster University at 9:03am this morning? Was McMaster your only interview and shot at becoming a physician? If so, get in here! Waitlist party woot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonane Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 does anyone know when the Mac waitlist usually starts moving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkwich Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 I got my waitlist email at 9:24 so I'm hoping that timestamps have nothing to do with waitlist position.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on past threads, McMaster over-offers (offers more than 203 seats) and has a wait-list (not sure how long) but I hear there's wait list movement each year.

fremulon Posted May 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 If we do get in off a waitlist, are we most likely going to be sent to a regional campus? Since I'm assuming the higher ranked people had first dibs and most wanted Hamilton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I'm assuming the higher ranked people had first dibs and most wanted Hamilton That is something that baffles me. Because there are ppl with better than our stats that got pushed into regionals today. What happens if someone drops from Hamilton? Do we get the dibs or to the regionals from today get dibs?

Distancea Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 They give out 330 offers for 206 spots. We just need to find out how many of us are out there. I suspect our chances are higher right now than they were today tho, which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have requested a regional campus or did bad on the interview but not bad enough. Honestly, I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
