big_pond Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Accepted to London campus!! Time Stamp: 12:06PMwGPA: 3.96MCAT: 11/12/11Interview: I prepared a lot for the interview, and had already thought about how to answer most of the questions they posed me before the actual interview. I tried really hard to connect with all my interviewers and just make them smile. Two did this fairly easily, but one had a hard face most of the time, and was difficult for me to gauge. Overall, I had a positive experience in the interview, and got a chance to tell them why I wanted to be a doctor due to some spare time at the end of the interview. Writing section was pretty easy, and I think it was just to weed out the bottom of the barrel. EC's: Honestly, not that strong. Some hospital volunteering, research, and random volunteer work and work experience. My best EC was from this year, where I volunteered in the k-12 school of a small rural aboriginal community, and hosted a bunch of extracurricular activities in addition to the 8-hour work day. Year: BSc May 2015; currently in a gap year OOP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medorbust99 Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Accepted to unspecified campus Timestamp: May 10 @ 12:09 PM wGPA: 3.88 MCAT: 520 (130 phys/ chem, 132 CARS, 130 Bio, 128 psych/soc) Interview: I did not really prepare at all. I am a mature student with an established career and tons of experience interviewing. Still- it felt awkward at times and I think I could have done better. I found the writing sample to be easy. ECs: Nothing that exciting except for practical experience. I have 6+ years working in healthcare in managerial roles, I have worked on the executive team of a major urban hospital. I will be rejecting this as I also got into Mac which is close to home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroD Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Accepted (London, 1st choice) wGPA: not sure but >3.9 MCAT: 12B/11V/11P Interview: Amazing. Last 5-10 minutes was the physician telling me and the other interviewers that I'm perfect for Western and vice verse. 5th year PhD in neuro, with plenty of research/scholarships/leadership and long term community involvement. While I'm thrilled with the out come, I loved Western's campus and feel (and London), I'll likely have to decline. I also got U of T, and Mac + Queen's wait-list, but I've always leaned towards Mac.

still_tryin88 Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Accepted! (London Campus) Time: 12:10pm, May 10, 2016 Year: graduated 1 year ago wGPA: 4.0 MCAT: 11/12/11 ECs: published research (not medical related), worked as kinesiologist and environmental scientist, volunteered at 2 hospitals getting direct patient contact, various clubs and student government. I did really poorly GPA-wise in 1st and 2nd year, and have had to battle back a long way to be here. It feels surreal to finally be able to write this.

Jesskhow Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 This is my first posting ever, I was just lurking before but would like to contribute since the thread has been quiet! I got a call off the normal waitlist today for Windsor Result: Accepted off normal waitlist to Windsor Date: June 13 at around 2:50pm (mountain time) 2 best years GPA: 3.89 MCAT: 10B/10P/11V Interview: It was my first panel interview (had only done Calgary's MMI before), and it felt like it went poorly. I walked out feeling good and then over the next few weeks I remembered saying "umm" a lot and was kicking myself for not saying certain things. Writing sample: It went okay, kept it simple and just did exactly what the instructions said to do. ECs: volunteered in hospital setting and preschool for special needs children during University. After uni worked at the preschool for a few years and have been working at an Opthalmology clinic. Year: graduated June 2013 Geography: OOP Will be accepting Im turning 25 soon and although that isn't old, I was feeling discouraged and inadequate after interviewing and being waitlisted and rejected from u of c. It's been said, but don't give up, and don't let the application cycles drain you or take away from your life. Continue to do what you want, work or travel or do whatever you want to do, because once you're in med school, it is a huge commitment. I was frustrated that I graduated 3 years ago and still wasn't in, but looking back I'm glad I travelled and enjoyed life in the mean time.
