Are you from B.C. - do you know anything about the cities each site is in ? I’d start first in looking at the cities and thinking about where you’re actually willing to live for 4 years. Interested in rural training? NMP and some SMP (and a couple IMP) seats are only available if you complete the rural suitability portion of the app, so that might automatically exclude at least one site if you aren’t interested in rural. You don’t really need to worry about this now though. Site preferences aren’t actually due until after interviews - if you have an interview you’ll have a chance to learn a bit more about the sites there. There’s a lot of threads on this forum with info about the different sites to help you make the decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry Kelowna ) etc. They are in quite different parts of the province, particularly Prince George, which is 9 hour drive from Vancouver.

bruh Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Just an FYI, the site preference pre interview is informal and non-binding. If you are offered an interview you will get the real site preference form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, a 32 person class size sounds awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condude Posted September 14, 2019 Report Share Posted September 14, 2019 They give you a spiel about it immediately after the interview, so don't panic about it yet. The site preference form comes out between interview and offer IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
