Starting the thread for 2021 fingers crossed.

Last year I think they come out on January 8th, and each prior year a little later.

Rather find out sooner than later though.

They send that email every year (including last year) and it always says late Jan but the past 3 years they've been out sometime from Jan 8-10 so it's very much possible they'll be out sooner than you think!

Do yall think itll come around Jan 13th because invites typically come out on the second Wednesday of Jan?

Anyone think they may possibly be out this coming week? They went out on the 8th last year but interviews weren’t until March 27th onwards 

This year interviews are much earlier (March 6/7/13) so looks like they’re moving ahead of schedule on things

Yea maybe! Or maybe they moved the dates to an earlier date due to the fact that the MMI interviews are online. I just think maybe Jan 13th because of the whole second Wednesday of January pattern.

They came out on a Thursday in 2019! But otherwise ya I think it's been Wednesday for the most part so who knows...I just hope it's sooner rather than later

I’m hoping they come this week! Although I’m not hopeful with a 126 in CARS, I’m definitely getting eager for an answer so I can move on haha

Someone on r/premedcanada said they did, but deleted the post 10-15 minutes later so it was kinda sus. They said Mac will release this week AND next week.

They deleted their account too so likely a troll. Has anyone actually emailed them? Mac is usually good with responding to inquiries 

I don’t mind emailing but I don’t want to do it if someone asked already
