[yesmedman 9]

The last thread had too low of a range and doesn’t provide much information for those oop above 72 points.

Has anyone on this waitlist interviewed with other schools that they are waiting to hear back from? I unfortunately did not get any other interviews and am praying for a miracle here! Thanks all!

Can somebody please post the average score breakdowns for OOPs? Thanks.

Will be declining my Dal OOP offer in favour of UofT. Goodluck to those on waitlist!

Has anyone heard of any OOP waitlist movement? And do they usually email or call if you are taken off the waitlist?

Congrats to those OOP who got accepted to other schools!

I just got my offer today! They emailed me, and gave me 2 days to decide whether I want to move forward with my offer. I will probably decline as I got accepted to other med schools in Ontario though. 

 

Good luck to everyone!

Congrats, that's amazing!!! I was wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing your score so we can have an idea of where they might be on the waitlist?

[Whitehorse243 5]

I received an offer today off the OOP waitlist - my score was 81.3 and I will be accepting. Good luck to those still waiting!

Has anyone heard of any waitlist movement lately? Do we anecdotally know when is the latest people tend to receive offers off the OOP waitlist?

Is anyone willing to post their score breakdown? I'm a future applicant,  and I'm curious how many points certain GPA levels and MCAT scores are worth. Thanks in advance.

GPA is linear so 4.0=15/15, 3.9=14/15 etc.

The first time i applied i had a 23/25 for MCAT and GPA, second time i applied i got a 21 (with the same GPA and MCAT). so i dont think its just linear, it must to be normalized and compared to your pool.

That may be, although over the last 5-6 years the MCAT requirement has changed so the difference in score could be based on that too. I applied last year and this year with the same GPA/MCAT but got an academic score that differed by 2 points because of the MCAT change.

Could you elaborate on that please? how did the MCAT requirement change and did it affect your score negatively or positively?

The minimum score to apply increased, decreased and then increased again over those years so how many points they gave depended on that. This year the minimum was increased compared to last year, and as a result I somehow lost 2 points.

Do you have to be waitlisted-post interview to know your academic scores? I didnt get an interview this year so i was just wondering
