    • Wait to get your casper results you never know maybe you did better than you think. If you get a 2nd-3rd quartile there is still hope to get in whatever program you want since you have a good gpa. For the time being you should just focus on maintaining a high gpa. Worst case if you end up getting a really bad casper, you’ll reapply next year but this time try to identify what is holding you back from scoring a high quartile and work on it. 
    • Anyone else who hasnt received a confirmation email from UBC yet?
    • Salut à tous. Je suis un élève qui commence le cégep la prochaine année dans un cursus en science de la nature. Je compte fortement réviser les matières de ce programme avant de commencer ma session pour mieux m'y préparer. L'un de vous étant passé par là pourrait m'envoyer les notes pdf des cours de SN ?   Ça m'aiderait vraiment beaucoup🙏🙏🙏🙏
    • Est-ce que vous pensez qu'une cote r de 33,2 peut rentrer en dmd à ulaval ? En admettons que le casper et que les entrevues soient quasi parfait.
    • Hi everyone, I just completed my Casper test for the 2024-2025 application cycle. I took it once before and scored in the 2nd quartile, but this time I feel like my responses were even worse. I'm worried that not only might I not improve my score, but I could even end up in the 1st quartile, which could be disqualifying. I'm feeling really demotivated and uncertain about what to do next. I'm currently in my second year of a Bachelor's in Chemistry with a 4.24/4.3 GPA (French system, applying to UDEM), but the academic pressure is burning me out. I don’t know how I’ll keep up my grades if I need to reapply next year. Does anyone have any advice or insights on what my options could be moving forward? I could really use some guidance right now.
    • Coucou,  Tu peux m'écrire en privé si tu veux, je fais du coaching Casper! 
    • Hey, I wrote yesterday and am also feeling the same! Definitely know I got more than a handful answers incorrect and feeling very unsettled. 
    • Bonjour à toutes et à tous, Je prépare actuellement le test Casper, que je passerai le 7 novembre, et je souhaite être au maximum prête. J'ai déjà effectué une simulation complète sur le site officiel. Je trouvais mes réponses un peu plates, avec peu de prise de position et un argumentaire faible. Depuis, je m’entraîne quotidiennement à taper rapidement (ce qui n'est pas trop un problème grâce à mon métier actuel). J’ai aussi créé un document regroupant mes expériences personnelles par thèmes (empathie, gestion des conflits, leadership, adaptabilité, pensée critique, etc.). Cela m’aide beaucoup et, lors de mes dernières simulations, j'ai réussi à structurer mes réponses avec des exemples concrets en tête. J'essaie aussi de prendre position de manière plus affirmée, tout en restant alignée avec mes convictions et en développant mes arguments. J’accorde une attention particulière à bien comprendre les enjeux de chaque situation pour donner des réponses plus nuancées. Auriez-vous des conseils supplémentaires à me donner pour optimiser ma préparation ? Connaissez-vous des sites où je pourrais accéder à des mises en situation variées ? Pour ceux qui ont passé le test pour le doctorat en médecine, avez-vous rencontré des scénarios strictement médicaux, plutôt que des situations de la vie quotidienne ? Merci beaucoup pour votre aide ! 😊
    • I also made a discord if you guys wanna join! https://discord.gg/qFNgXuzG
    • Hello guys! Made this forum for 2024/2025 u of a pharmacy cycle. Please use it to discuss applications and other!
    • Je ne penserais pas. C'est surtout une question d'infrastructures et de places disponibles pour les stages selon moi. Je pense que le nouveau campus permet d'accueillir seulement 25 personnes pour le moment. Il ne faut pas oublier qu'après 3 ans, ces 25 personnes s'ajoutent aussi aux infrastructures à St-Hyacinthe. Peut-être que d'ici quelques années ils ajusteront, mais je pense pas qu'à court terme le nb à Rimouski augmente tant que ça
    • Je pense qu'ils l'auraient mentionné quelque part, style sur leur page Facebook ou autre ? Mais peut-être que je me trompe ! C'est tellement mystérieux les admissions ça serait aussi pas surprenant qu'ils fassent juste plus accepter de gens sans en parler 😅
    • Savez-vous si cette année un plus grand nombre d’étudiants pourront être accueillis à rimouski ? Ou si c’est toujours 25 ?
    • I felt the CFPC SAMP exam was hard and took a long time to read to process an answer. I left a few answer on a complete guess. I am anxious whether I chose the write answer. I am having a mixed feelings about the exam. Anyone here feeling the same?
