It seems like in past years the OOP invites go out last. Hopefully we'll all hear within the next hour or so. It already feels like its been such a long morning.

I wonder if we'll hear back today at all, considering their time to tell us is the 21st-30th, so it could be next week (hopefully not though)

Based on previous years, it looks like all the invites are sent out in the first 2-3 days. I'm assuming rejections/invites off the waitlist will be sent out next week.

Interesting. Also from Vancouver, I graduated from UBC this year for my BSc. Does Memorial favour applicants with masters degrees more?

I don't think so, I think it just kind of adds to the variety of experience of the applicants but they accept plenty of people without a master's.

Hi. does anyone know what is the order of sending out interview invites? ranking or alphabetic? 

[PreMed#219099 64]

Just checked out last year's thread

It seems OOP gets interview invites the day after IP

So here's to hoping its tomorrow 

[ubccommutergirl 2]

Hopefully OOP gets released tomorrow. I can't wait any longer!

Sorry to ask but are the interviews still MMI? Just wondering how they are conducting the interviews this year!

They said it'll be part live interviews and part asynchronous. Probably online? And probably MMI or a mix of MMI and traditional/panel interview? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm similar and confused as well. I also thought that I did well on the CASPer. I wish I knew my CASPer score :’’(

No, I don't think so

From last year, it seems like invites can continue to trickle in up to a week after the initial invites are sent out

Don't lose hope!
