excalibre Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 I knew this would happen to me. The email says they are waiting for information from OMSAS. Which is unbelieveable since I sent my stuff to them early. I hate Friday afternoons - cause that's when all the emails come from med schools.

Darla Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 I'm just so glad they didn't make us sweat out the weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkfalz Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 i'm really confused. I had a 4th year GPA of 3.73, graduated, and am doing a victory lap undergrad year. My MCAT meets the SWOMEN cutoffs (11, 10, 12, P) and I lived in a SWOMEN area my entire life, but was bussed to a highschool out of a SWOMEN area. I wrote a letter to the admissions committee explaining that i grew up and lived on a SWOMEN-area farm, but the only catholic high school I could go to was out of the area. From what I understood, they would used my 4th year GPA, and I could use the year I am currently in for the 2nd of the 2 years. Should I be emailing regarding my rejection?

Sharpie* Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 that's an interesting email! Very interesting indeed! I wonder why they felt inclined to send a pre-invitation email! Maybe they had a lot of stressed out students calling asking for news sooner! Well anyway, nice to hear something positive from them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temp_degoo Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Very interesting indeed! I wonder why they felt inclined to send a pre-invitation email! Maybe they had a lot of stressed out students calling asking for news sooner! Well anyway, nice to hear something positive from them! Very true. Congratulations to all. Now I'm worried about the interview dates and conflicts. Anyone else booked the 24th and 31st weekends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashb Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 got one saying no decision too...does that mean its a rejection?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillerTime Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 I got one saying I didn't meet the necessary criteria, which I think is wrong, so I emailed them saying so. I'm non-SWOMEN, MCAT above cutoffs, and I've got one year above 3.7, but that was the year where i only had 4.5 OMSAS credits, but 31 credits from uOttawa. So since they told me last august that this is ok, I don't see why I don't meet the criteria, so I contacted them about it. And Darkfalz, I'd definitely contact them about your SWOMEN status. Why not, you've got nothing to lose and an interview to gain if they agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyleh Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Maybe it wasn't your stats. This year your sketch contributes to receiving an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 They did the same thing last year with the pre-email. For those who made cut offs but were rejected - maybe you didn't take a full course load in all undergrad years or didn't take at least 3 senior level courses for years 3 and 4. I know a lot of ppl who were excellent candidates but were rejected for that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyleh Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Is senior level second year and above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyro Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 I'm pretty sure it is. At least I really hope so because I only have 5 third year courses and 2 first year courses and 3 second year courses for my highest level year:(....is this okaY? Is senior level second year and above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyleh Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 I'm pretty sure. Don't take my word for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katerade Posted February 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 senior means 300 or 400 level, to the best of my knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superking25 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 I'm so pumped . I'm from BC and I didn't get an invite from my own UBC I've never been east of Edmonton, so it will be awesome to come see the campus, and since this looks like my only interview, I hope I'm sharp for it! !
