IP Interviews

[p0795195]

For the time, you you will be able to leave by 12 and maybe before depending on whether you are first or last to be interviewed. We all get general times, but a person with 8-12 might be scheduled for an 9.30 and an11.30 interview. So, there is a lot of waiting.

Sexy March 18

This is so great!

 

Congrats to everyone who got the invite!

[hippie]

Does anyone want to swap a date? I am scheduled for the 20th of March and can switch to any other date!

March 14, I guess MD-PhD was at the bottom of the pile as my minerva was just updated.

I dont know if you guys notice but the email they sent out looks as if they sent the wrong one (with the right attatchement). Thanking us for accepting the interview and saying that the MMI and interview was useful in the decision process.... It seems they sent out the final answer email for OOP or international students. Just found it kinda funny

Heh... I missed that - went straight for the attachment! You're right, though - it does sound a little strange.

How are candidates ranked post-interview? If anyone knows the breakdown, & which factors are weighted, the info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

From what ive read in a canadian medschool book, post interview you are given a total score out of 30

5 for autobiography/CV

5 for GPA

5 for reference letters

5 for MCAT

10 for interviews (5 for each interview)

 

but thats just from a book...

Can anyone confirm this?

[PHANTOMPHOENIX]

Thanks!

I believe that is outdated.

 

The last I heard...

 

20% GPA

20% MCAT

20% Autobiography, References

40% Interview

 

But you have to realize that the autobiography counts unofficially for more than that because I believe the interviewers have a copy during the interviews and spend the builk of the interview going over it. So it factors into that.

[The Bunny]

yes each interviewer has a copy of your autobio letter. They read them in advance and scribble notes on them. Don't let that throw you off.

What else do they have?

May be our CV, GPA/MCAT, kind of rating (since everything's been marked out of 20%)?

Thanks.

[J_Term]

they don't have your GPA/MCAT, or at least they didn't for the OOP, just your CV and autobiographical sketch

[Sergie]

Thanks J_Term!
