Buying Condo as PGY1
Rusty Verdigris replied to RicardoKaká's topic in Medical Student General Discussions
Definitely get in touch with a mortgage broker and see what kind of financing you will be able to access. Generally speaking, your current debt level will significantly impact the size of mortgage you will be able to qualify for, so you may find that you are not able to get a mortgage that is sufficient to purchase the condo you want. Additionally, you can use your line of credit to put a higher down-payment down, but you will still have to pay the high-ratio insurance on your mortgage because you are still borrowing money for your down-payment. Borrowing on the LoC for the down payment will a -

I sent mine by mail ~3 weeks ago, and it says it has not been received yet. I'm not going to start worrying about it until the end of the month. -

2020 waitlist support thread
Rusty Verdigris replied to hopingformd's topic in University of Calgary Medical School
Hi everyone! Just wanted to let y'all know that I declined my OOP (cohort 1) acceptance to Calgary this evening, so hopefully someone here will be getting some good news soon. Best of luck! -
I'm an incoming first year med student and as a gift to celebrate my med school acceptances (and because she is wonderful), my mum got me a stethoscope She got me a Littmann Classic III, and I just wanted to check if this model will be fine for med school--does anyone know if this model will do the job, or should I exchange it for a different model? If it matters, I'll be attending UBC.

Result: ACCEPTED Geography: OOP GPA: 3.97 MCAT: 524 (132 CARS) Degree : BA EC: Fairly non-trad. Lots of not-very-medicine-related work experience and volunteering, belonging to and working withing diverse communities, and a bit of research. Interview: Some stations felt good, some less good. overall, I was happy with how it went--I was mostly just proud of myself for making it through it in one piece lol. -

2019-2020 UofA Admission Decisions
Rusty Verdigris replied to MedicineLCS's topic in University of Alberta Medical School
Result: Accepted :))))))) Geography: OOP GPA: 3.97 MCAT: 524 (132 CARS) Degree: BA E.C: Dunno. I'm somewhat non-trad so lots of diverse work and volunteer experience. Interview: I felt like my interview was a train-wreck. I think maybe other parts of my application carried me through, because I was felt like my interview was just me babbling incoherently for half an hour--but who knows, maybe I'm poor at judging objectively. Thoughts: I was 100% ready for this to be a rejection. First time applicant and honestly kind of discombobulated by this result, but a
