Post-interview feelings
struggling2getin replied to Ss123toy's topic in University of British Columbia Medical School
Yup. My stats are also quite average for UBC. On the other hand, I thought my UofT interview was my best and got a flat out rejection -

Post-interview feelings
struggling2getin replied to Ss123toy's topic in University of British Columbia Medical School
Felt like garbage after I did mine. In one station, the interviewer asked me a question and my brain had a complete fart about what one term meant so I asked him to repeat the question 3 times, then on the third time the bell rang and I just sat there in regret. In another, I got super intimidated by the interviewer for some reason and they were quite stone faced so I gave pretty bad and like one sentence responses to a complicated question. Then we just sat there after he had nothing more to ask. Finally, in another station, I spent all 8 minutes on the main question and literally conclu -

It would be good to hear opinions from others within your

I think Western is the only school that won't take you. I know at least three people who have left professional programs (law, dent, pharm) partway to enter medicine, including myself. Depending on the school, they might look at your grades post acceptance and can potentially revoke your offer if they are too low.

I laughed reading this, realizing that I do everything listed too and that we sound so jaded to first years. Let the 2024s have their fun for the first few months haha. Would your classmate happen to have the initials E.Z? That's one person I know who does well while going to no lectures, cramming 4 days prior to exams and watching at double speed -

I can't comment on UBC vs Queens since I never studied there (though I was there for an interview), but I'm from Toronto and attend UBC. Feel free to DM. -
