Queens Interview Invites/Regrets 2021
Deipnosophist replied to newmy88's topic in Queen's University Medical School
No problem! This sounds like a very specific problem, so I doubt many people have encountered it before. The Queen’s email does state “If we do not receive a response to this invitation by February 5th, 2021 at 1:00PM EST, your interview invitation will be set to decline.” It would be incredibly unfortunate for you to miss out on your interview because of this, however schools have deadlines to meet.

As the title suggests, I'm looking for advice. Here goes: I am a dual citizen (Canadian and American). I recently applied to UBC but did not receive an invite and am waiting on a couple more Ontario schools. I plan on applying next year as well. My GPA is not great due to poor study habits and other factors early on in my undergrad, which may make it difficult to get into Canadian schools. So, I’m also looking abroad for med school (USA, potentially Australia). I would want to eventually practice in Canada. For the record, I recently completed my UG degree, my cGPA is 3.42 (82.75% AGPA fo
