dentshopeful Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 This is primarily for anyone who is on the waiting list or knows anything about it.... 1. has anyone that is on the waiting list already gotten an interview? is it some kind of rolling offers or something? or do they just wait until they know exactly how many people they are interviewing on march 24th before they send out the wait listed interviews? 2. does anyone know how big the waiting list is, or what the chances of getting an interview are if you are on the waitlist? I read in another thread that everyone who was waitlisted last year for UWO got an interview in the end.. is this true? can anyone actually confirm this? Thanks for your help.

Hopeful15 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Congrats! Did you receive an email today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangma Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I got an "late" offer of interview on March 12th (Last Thursday). I think the info about waiting list is confidental. It said so in my email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
human instinct Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 I am on the waiting list and still waiting. Last year was different so I would not use it as a predicate for what would happen this year. Last year, a bunch of ppl ended up transferring scores as they had already been accepted by UofT by the time UWO began interviewing. Unfortunately, this did not happen this year. More importantly ,though, for those of you on the W list and have to give the physiology challenge test, when do you plan to start studying for it?? After an invitation seems obvious but wasnt sure if that would be enough time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, that should be the last day when people off the waiting list will be offered interviews... So.. you will atleast have 2 weeks to study..

hangma Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 I cannot believe some people have to write physiology challenge test at Western. I think We have been though enough testing. Thankfully I took Physio course at UofT. Less stressful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentshopeful Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 so waitlisted people could technically get an email about an interview any day up until the 24th? thats only a week away... hangma, if you dont mind me asking, since you got an interview off the waitlist, what were your stats? i just want to try and judge to see if i even have a chance... thanks.

human instinct Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 it does suck but have to deal with it...it sucks because I already have a third year physio from UTM and we used the same Vanders book that they suggest for studying for the test..

hangma Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 My stats were 85% for top 2 yrs, 18/30 on RC. I took 4 courses in those 2 years so I think they applied penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juba Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I'm probably going to transfer my scores from UofT now because something came up. There should be an extra spot available within the next few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentshopeful Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hearing someone say that makes me really happy. I hope your interview at U of T went or will go well... I too am still waiting to hear back, and tomorrow is the deadline to transfer scores, so for those on the waiting list, we should hear back sometime tomorrow or the next few days hopefully? even though that leaves only 1.5 weeks to prepare haha.

juba Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Just a quick question. How do you transfer scores from Toronto to Western. Who do you e-mail? Do you cancel your interview or is there an option to transfer scores on the sign-in page? Can someone who is transferring scores let me know what they did? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
