Hi Eudaimonia, my advisor didn't mention this, but I was looking on scotia bank's website, and it says when we open a new Scotia One banking account, we can get up with 10k points. the conditions are in fine print at the very bottom. http://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/personal/bank-accounts/chequing-accounts/scotiaone-chequing-account.html My question for you: did you get anything extra on top of the upfront offer?

I contacted RBC and scotiabank recently and this is a comparison: 1. Credit cards annual fee: both top of the line cards, mostly similar/comparable perks with Scotia having slight upper hand. Difference: RBC offered to waive annual fees for 4 years, Scotia for 4 years + residency + 2 year grace period. That, if RBC does not budge, is a ~$1000 difference (if residency = 5 years, annual fee $120-135). 2. Credit cards welcoming points: RBC gives 30,000 with no strings attached (up to $700 value). Scotia bank gives $250 equivalent if you spend $1000 in first 90 days. That's a +$500 for R

What colour backpacks will next year's class carry?
beepboopbot replied to fremulon's topic in General Premed Discussions
rainbow colour. we be inclusive and bright and seconds the flamboyance. -
it's too far from home haha. i'd choose to stay as close as i can, and I've 90% decided U of T. Why, do you think Western has an edge over both schools?
-
I agree, thanks to both of the answerers! Very helpful, and now I'm tipping towards Toronto, haha

Post-interview feeling to result?
beepboopbot replied to Dr.swagster's topic in McMaster University Medical School
ok so an update. for me, the feelings from first 5 minutes after coming out of interviews were extremely accurate (5/5 schools predicted). But of course, after those initial 5 minutes, all went to hell and I thought I was stupid for each and every one of them, some more so than others, and those feelings were no where near correct. -
I know this has been asked before in the past few years, but do want to hear some more recent opinions. Both schools are great (U of T is my undergrad, closer to home). What do you guys think? What are some factors I should consider? Thank you in advance!
