I definitely felt that the U of A was more straightforward, however I felt like I rambled ALOT and was very much not concise with my answers. While I struggled with the U of C questions I felt emotionally better afterwards. It's so hard to know if it went well or not!

For those who interviewed at U of A and UCalgary and have already completed both interviews, how do you feel they compare?

As far as I know I think offers are usually rescinded when last semester gpa drops below minimum. For u of a that would be 3.3 for in province, 3.5 for out of province.

Don't forget to sign up for an interview time today!

I think they’re closed today for family day! just a tip I got that helped me was that the email containing the ccid is from the email address “idadmin@ualberta.ca” I’m not sure if that helps, but it helped me locate it in my email abyss.

White coat black art! 10/10

Finish reading your invite email haha, it doesnt open until the 16th!

Yeah for sure, I had one of my years excluded for U of C because of part time, and U of A counted it so it really brought down my GPA for U of A.

Just a bit of thought, I think we're naive to think that the two schools do not communicate and make some decisions together. However, my thinking is that U of C wouldn't have released yesterday because they're still ensuring their GPA mishap did not effect interview invites. I know this is a stressy time for everyone so try to take a breath and practice a little self care this week. Good luck friends!

Weird! Mine let me submit with the student ID

I have no idea, I'm stressed because I think that's just your student ID however I might use it

But I felt like it was mediocre

They were sent out!

I think you're right! I was thinking of U of C, the onboard MD app I have says that around 1300 applicants apply, so even if it went up to 1500 this year with increase due COVID layoffs/career changes, it should be a one in three assuming ~500 interviews. I have 0 idea how OOP stats would come into play lol.
