ottawamed.90 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 can the ppl accepted to lower-mid tiers like wayne please post their GPAS undergrads, ecs and mcats? If you read back I think I posted mine. Accepted to Wayne with a 3.83o/3.87s, 33N, undergrad from uOttawa. ECs included 4 summers of research, worked in a doctors office, volunteering at the hospital and in a couple other places. Couple other pretty standard things.

ottawamed.90 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 with those stats why not apply to Canada? I did - still waiting to hear back from the Ontario schools and got rejected at UBC and Dal. Had almost the same stats last year and got rejected at 5 Ontario schools (all but NOSM).

bearpuppy Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Rejected from Feinberg/Northwestern pre-interview today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nychila Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Rejected from Feinberg/Northwestern pre-interview today. Also rejected today. A little disappointed since they have a prime location, but not actually sad since I would never get used to PBL. Good luck next week at St. Louis Bear.

Good luck next week at St. Louis Bear. sorry to hear that nychila.. im sure you have bigger and better things coming your way though for me? not so disappointed.. just glad it's coming to an end.. nothing harder than waiting for a decision, it seems. looking forward to feb1 also as it seems UCalgary and McMaster will decide by then. and thank you! I'll PM you about how it went.. bit nervous as I haven't had to do an interview like this in years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demerp Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Just thought i'd contribute my experience in the 2012-13 cycle: overallGPA/sGPA: 3.82/3.90 MCAT: 14PS 11BS 9VR (35R) completed MSC in 2011, been working in research ever since ECs: research heavy, other campus extracurriculars here and there, nothing really long term. (subpar ECs IMO) completed most of my secondaries in Aug/Sept Applied- AECOM BU Case Dartmouth Emory GW Jefferson Michigan State RFU SLU SUNY Upstate Pritzker UVA VCU Wayne State Rejected so far- Case Emory GW Pritzker Interviews (result)- BU (deferred until late march) Dartmouth (just interviewed 02/05, awaiting decision) RFU (accepted) SLU (withdrew) SUNY upstate (high priority alternate list) VCU (withdrew) Other schools I did not hear back from...I'm assuming a rejection. This is my second time applying to the US; I applied late last cycle to 6 schools and received no interviews. Nothing from Canadian schools either. After a really disappointing 2011-12 cycle, I applied VERY early this cycle and I think it makes a huge difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottawamed.90 Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Finally rejected from GWU today. Knew it was coming but nice to make it official after being on hold since July. So for the year looks like accept at Wayne, waitlist at Georgetown (top choice so keeping my fingers crossed), and still waiting to hear from NYMC and Einstein. Unsure how much hope to hold out for those two - they've been actively rejecting but I've been waiting on them for a while now. Sent them both an update earlier this week, so maybe I'll head something next week... I'd really like to live in the NYC area, so I'm hoping for good news but I don't wanna get too excited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottawamed.90 Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Isn't cost of living insane in NYC? Making the already high american tuition even more of a financial burden. No worse than it is in Washington DC if I went to Georgetown. The loans you can get in Canada for the schools though would cover at least the tuition, and I would be able to cover the living expenses myself. Edit: Plus neither school is directly in NYC. Einstein is in the northern tip of the city and NYMC is in White Plains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottawamed.90 Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Argh. Wait listed at mount Sinai. This process is brutal!! That sucks I feel that on the 8+ months of waiting since applying last July to waiting for a waitlist spot now. Hopefully theirs is one of the waitlists that sees a lot of movement and you'll be able to snag a spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GITG Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 I have an MD applicants profile -- all the details are on there:http://mdapplicants.com/profile.php?id=25835 You did not really expect to get in to Harvard with a 3.4, did you?

Demetrios Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 You did not really expect to get in to Harvard with a 3.4, did you? Why did you even bother to apply? He has a PhD, 5 publications and several patents so maybe he can; it's not all GPA man (especially in USA). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
