Bonjour, je voulais savoir ce que vous me suggérer de faire si je ne suis pas acceptée dans mon premier et deuxième choix (médecine et médecine vétérinaire). J'ai présentement une cote R de 34.63. Premièrement, quel programme suggérez vous pour avoir la meilleure CRU entre nutrition à l'UDEM, neurosciences à McGill (si acceptée) et physio à Sherbrooke? Ensuite, je ne crois plus qu'il est possible d'appliquer en médecine sans avoir complété un BAC à l'UDEM et McGill, mais je crois que c'est possible à Sherbrooke et ULAVAL? Est-ce que je me trompe? Si je ne me trompe pas, je pourrais appliquer durant ma première année (le 1er novembre?) et c'est seulement mes résultats de ma première session qui compteraient OU mes notes universitaires ne seraient pas prises en compte? Merci beaucoup pour votre aide -
Hi! Anyone else on the Med-P waitlist 2020? I'm between 15-20 on the waitlist... Don't want to get too discouraged! Does anyone know how much it moved last year?

I have been searching daily in the forum about the pre-requisite science GPA for IP. I have a 3.61 and wanted to know if that is competitive for the post-interview. Also, how true is this quote from their site " Successful applicants tend to have a basic science prerequisite GPA (PrereqGPA) above 3.4 (average approximately 3.8), or an MCAT equal to or greater than 30 (average approximately 33). Applicants with a PrereqGPA below 3.0 or with an MCAT below 27 are rarely considered." I understand it says above 3.4- does anyone know someone that has gotten into mcgill recently with a gpa above 3.4 and less than 3.6?

Hi all, I spoke to the admissions and the person I spoke with seemed a bit unsure, so I don't even know if it's a big deal: When filling out the academic workbook, is the local GPA according to your university's GPA system? Reason I ask, my university uses a 9 point system. Or do I covert this to a 4.3 scale that McGill provides in the guide? Thanks!

I love you all in advance for your honest feedback, albeit it be as harsh as Canada’s winters or as sweet as the peach drink from Timmies. Enough with the bad analogies, here’s the summary: 24 years old. Currently in 2nd gap year Ontarian post grad, working to reduce that $30k debt. Fluent, not native, in French. Native in Russian, basic Italian GPA: 4.0 after McGills conversion. 3.95 otherwise. ECs: -honours thesis in a molec/biochem lab (results credited during supervisor’s conference presentation; he also happens to be a past department head, univ prof emeritus and the coordinator for Gairdner at York- does any of that matter??); lead to abstract publication and oral presentation (on my behalf) at a conference. -~100 hours as an exec on mental health club (organized a couple of big projects and conferences) - ~100 hours as a research assistant in clinical research (VOLUNTEER) -~200 hours hospice doing home visits for the same patient in palliative care -part time job at a small business/local salon I’ve had since 2013 and haven’t quit yet because I’ve built a very close relationship w the owner and it’s a minute from my house. I’m also currently an assistant manager there -another recent job I’ve taken up at a medical assistant, so far at 75 hours and counting -over 400 hours shadowing family doctor and surgeries at Sunnybrook -started my own catering company I run part/full time dep. on demand. I carve literal flowers out of any fruit you want, it’s been my artistic channel for over a year. -full time caretaker of my ill grandma whom I live with (not sure if worth mentioning that but that has been a big reason it’s been difficult to find a full-time ‘real job’) -every month, I try to get some ppl from my neighbourhood together to pick up garbage around the mailboxes and to offer to put up “slow down, kids at play” signs on ppls front lawns bc it’s a residential area yet ppl speed 70+. I’ve been doing this for over 3 years and I don’t know if it’s worth mentioning since most of the time I just end up going alone -some hospital and clinic volunteering when I was 18 -participated in sanofi aventis biotech challenge when I was 17 - did research in a cancer lab for an entire school year; poster presentation and a paper at the end -not many awards except for scholarship, deans list and first class w distinction grad -hobbies include: regularly attending the francophone community meetings (cafe conversation style) and organizing some myself; an avid gym goer (swimmer) -let’s talk science community outreach but only 20 hours under my wing - I do it from time to time -written mcat twice if that matters -during my second gap year, I went back to take a full year prereq physics course which ran 4 days a week 11-12 which also limited some of the full-time job searching I really want to attend McGill. Not only am I in love with the city and would love to move there in a heartbeat, but going there for medical school would mean my family isn’t far from me (were first gen. immigrants and it’s been tough getting everyone together finally and ideally I don’t want to leave by moving too, too far). Please provide me with any feedback, that will preferably not crush my fragile heart. Thank you.
