Everything that you said was good, however your response is pretty short. I agree with the comment above saying give examples to illustrate the points you were trying to make.

Definitely practice through Zoom or something like that. I practiced via Skype with people in the past and never really paid attention to looking into the camera etc because I knew I would make eye contact with the interviewer during the real thing, but little things like that are going to be important for you this year. Good luck!

I just wanted to say I had this on a real CASPer test and it really surprised me and I blanked haha.

You do not receive your application score when they send out interview invites. The only time you see your score is if you end up being waitlisted or rejected when decision letters come out.

The OOP pool is fairly competitive, however the waitlist moves a lot so it compensates a bit. The last two years they started combining scores for all pools so it's difficult to say what the averages for the OOP has been recently.

Definitely go for it!

Keep in mind that the final GPA is dependent upon credit hours, so MSc grades do not get weighted equally with undergrad years because they're usually for fewer credit hours.

It takes a few days for them to process payments, whereas the emails that remind you are sent automatically I believe. If you have proof of payment you can wait a few days to see if the payment status updates.

I want to say the Maritime essay is just used for interview decisions but don't quote me on that, I'm IP so I'm not sure.

You never know what will happen, doesn't hurt to give it a try!

Maintaining a permanent address doesn't mean anything, you have to physically be here to claim IP status. The whole being back but in school thing is a little confusing so I feel like you're going to have to ask admin.

MCAT is not assessed competitively for interview for IP students. OP do you think you could do better if a date before the cut-off was available? I'd still apply with a 503 at Dal but I completely see what you're saying about a higher score opening doors at other schools.

I would suggest looking at the accepted/waitlisted thread to see, I know Dal used to provide average accepted stats based on the different pools to people who were waitlisted/rejected but they stopped doing that last year or the year before.

The OOP pool at Dal is fairly competitive, not sure a 504 will be enough?
