My panel was friendly. Can't wait to meet everyone in the fall! I am very grateful for this opportunity and good luck to all those still on the waitlist!

xptm Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Result: Accepted (Accepted the offer) Time Stamp: May 12th 7:33 am WGPA: 3.98 Stream: English Year: 4th Year UG Completed This year Location: OOO IP ECs: PM me - but nothing too fancy. Only filled 15 for ABS Interview: I didn't prepare much since it was a panel interview. Was a bit nervous, but felt pretty confident about it. I got a lot of my practice questions so I may have sounded a bit rehearsed lol. I was really worried about that. I was confident with most of my answers. They didn't look at me most of the time nor seemed so pleased about two of my answers, so this was a very pleasant surprise. I didn't get asked a lot of personal questions, but I guess that doesn't matter lol I have been lurking forever so hopefully this helps someone. Sorry that this is late Best of luck to future applicants + re-applicants! PM me if you need help with interview. Heisencat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjc2 Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Accepted! 7:43 AM GPA: 3.95 Stream: English Geography: ON (I think?) BA complete, BSc complete, MSc almost complete Interview: To be honest, I felt like it went really bad. I beat myself up about it for a long time. I felt like I was being challenged and they were just trying to get a reaction out of me. But, I was myself and I was HONEST. What would I really do in a certain scenario, in real life? I gave some very non-med-school-interview answers and know I caught them off guard because some of the prompts they gave me assumed I would have answered questions differently. I am so, so honoured to have been admitted to Ottawa! I went back to school at the age of 25 with the goal of working in health care and 5 years later, four application cycles later, two degrees later, I'm starting my career!
