Guest UBCstu Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Hi, I've read in previous posts that the min. AGPA for OOP applicant is ~ 3.9. Is this 3.9/4.5 or 3.9/4.0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jgray2 Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 It's out of 4.5, where A+ = 4.5. Keep in mind that if your school does not use percentages or only gives out A instead of A+, then your maximum mark is a 4.0/4.5. -j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fever meds Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 the above poster brings out an important point. it doesn't make sense for a student who scores all A's at a school where highest mark is A, to get a GPA of 4.0 out of 4.5. Talk to beth jennings as there is usually a way to handle this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jgray2 Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Actually, I e-mailed her (Beth) about it back in June, and I asked her how to convert my marks for Ucalgary, especially since they moved from the A to the A+ system in 2002. Her response: "We will only give 4.5 to A+, so in the old system your top grade point was a 4.0." So I assume that for places without the A+, you were pretty much out of luck ... -j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Saberial Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hey jgray2, I had another question for you since I'm from UCalgary as well. Does Manitoba require bcem 393/443 to apply? Or can you take bcem 393/507 or 393/543? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest happy2bme Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I have asked Beth a couple of times, just to make sure... all they will accept from Calgary is 393/443. apparently very sticky on this, trust me I tried to get around it.... However things can always change so if you are thinking of applying next year I would check in the summer before you register for classes that the 443 is still a prereq for admission If you applied this year and didn't have 443 you may manage to sneak by the admissions and get an interview, but I believe if you are considered for acceptance you will probably end up being denied. This is from info a previous poster had posted about this happening with an english(i think) requirement not being accepted even after managing to score an interview. I am basing this solely on my memory from last years posts so I may be a little off, but I know Manitoba is a stickler for the proper approved prereq's This being said you can apply to have a course evaluated as equilivent, especially if the course content has changed in the last couple of years. They have a list of whether the course has ever been evaluated and what year it was evaluated last. So if the course hasn't changed since 2 years ago and it was evaluated 1 year ago they won't bother to reevaluate, but if it was evaluated 4 years ago, they will!

Guest np2008 Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hi, Does anyone know how many seats are available for OOP applicants? I hear that MCAT results are more important than the AGPA; any idea what the average MCAT scores are for OOP applicants? Thanks, NP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jeesing Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 the average OOP MCAT is about 11.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
