Documentation for CPSBC

Just checking that we didn't need a criminal records check at this time? My friend in nursing had to get one done, and it made me wonder if thats something we needed to submit already #momentofpanic -
Hey! I submitted my documentation to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC last week, and have not gotten any confirmation or change in document status. Just wondering how long it took for everyones notarized documents to show up as accepted on their account, or if anyone received a confirmation email? Thanks so much!

How does a 5th year work?
acceptmeplease replied to Planteater's topic in University of British Columbia Medical School
My MCAT was a 517 with a 128 in CARS, if I remember correctly! My ECs included 3 publications (1 1st author, 1 2nd author), 10 conference presentations, 5 years of research work (including my Masters thesis), international sports competitions, hospital volunteer work, TA jobs, etc. I did a lot of rewrites on my entries to make them describe how I felt and what I learnt. -
How does a 5th year work?

I did my undergraduate degree over 5 years because I was working full time and could only take 4 courses per term. I had an academic explanation for some lower grades in second year. I also completed a masters and took a few GPA boosting undergraduate classes after graduating from my undergrad. I was accepted this year with a GPA in the low 80s and extensive ECs that definitely carried my score. I don't think that the time over which my schooling spanned had any affect on my acceptance, but the ECs I gained during the process definitely did. If I were you, I would take some GPA boosters to try -

I've been taking advantage of the research done by our predecessors and peers on the LOC forum thread. I am going to go with Scotiabank, and have been in contact with an extremely helpful representative from my local branch. I've been wanting to switch banks for a long time so I will be able to open new chequing/savings accounts with Scoita at the time of getting approved for my LOC. I wanted to get the process rolling early because I don't know what my eligibility will be for any grants, bursaries, or student loans... And I cannot afford the tuition with what is currently in my bank account!

I know one person that was accepted to a different site, and then was accepted off the waitlist to VFMP on the second round offers. In case that helps anyone in their analysis of the process! -
