premed_pickle Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Posting my stats for all the non-traditional applicants and those with lower GPAs because I never thought I would be able to get an interview. Result (Invite/Regrets): Invite Time Stamp: 2:51pmwGPA/cGPA: 3.91/3.32 Year: Completed master’s degree MCAT (CP/CARS/BB/PS): 126/127/130/129 CASPER (Quartile): 4thECs: lots of ECs. I tried to buffer my lower stats with ECs (I am an older applicant). Worked in 2 labs in my undergrad, part of multiple student clubs, had a couple small part-time jobs throughout school, 10+ publications, multiple conference presentations, completed lots of volunteering hours in uni and continued after. I’ve been working full-time in research for 3 years post-grad. Geography (IP/OOP): IP I cried so much when I received the invite. I failed a course early in my undergraduate degree and it has been an uphill battle to comeback from that. I really didn't think it was possible! Wishing everyone good luck with their interviews. poorpremed, stressedoutblondie and PreMed124 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylor131 Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Does anyone know if the interview invites/rejects were sent out all at once? I still haven't heard anything yet and I checked my junk box already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik- Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Result (Invite/Regrets): R wGPA/cGPA: 3.9+/3.79Year: Undergrad complete 2017 MCAT (CP/CARS/BB/PS): 127/128/129/129 CASPER (Quartile): 4thECs: lots of ECs. Work since high school, extensive volunteering, minimal research involvement, recreational athletics. Most notably have been working in healthcare since 2015, as a nurse from 2017-2021 and now a healthcare administrator running an entire COVID vaccine roll-out for a public health unit. Extensive experience in community care, acute care (hospital) and public health. I highly doubt they read into these prior to interview invites.Geography (IP/OOP): IP 5 applications to Queens and 0 invites for me. Time to cross another one off the list forever.

Medschool12345 Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Did anyone get email confirmation after accepting the interview? I saved my response so I have a copy but didn't get anything from Queen's saying it went through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you try clicking the link again and it says "you have completed the survey already or your session has expired" then you're all good they'll probably reach out to us next week with details poorpremed and Medschool12345 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had pretty much resigned myself to another app cycle until I heard from Queens that I needed to “respond” to an email. I found the invite in my spam folder and nearly cried. What a feeling.
