bored Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Just though If this kind of thread be created for all universities instead of just specific universities. so one doesnt have to look to specific threads inorder to get info on overall med schools.. So like all threads except, it would be great if you can mention your undergrad institution and interview impression. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I'm a (Province) resident. I Had my (undergraduate or graduate Degree) from (University). My GPA was (XYZ) and my MCAT scores were: Physical Sciences: (x) Verbal: (y) Biological Sciences: (z) Written Sample: (z) I was (accepted) by (universities) I was (Waitlisted) by (universities) I was (rejected) by (universities) This is my (first/second/third/more than third) time applying to this school. In my opinion, my Interview went (bad/ not too bad/ OK, good/ very good/ awesome) ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnewbie Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I find the individual threads much more useful and efficient. The value of the information is primarily useful in targeting your applications to specific schools where you profile best fits with what they are looking for. I do not want to filter through 100 posts to find the 10 or 15 that might apply to the university I am looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmorelan Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 In that case, I suggest that you do not look at this thread again. touche I think both are useful as most people apply to more than one school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontariostudent Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 We can all just post our stats on mdapplicants.com, which can be searched by school.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jochi1543 Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Is this just for ON schools or all schools? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bored Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Is this just for ON schools or all schools? All, I was thinking it would be better to undergrads to see where it is most possible with what GPA and stuff like that not just specific universities I guess mdapplicants.com could work but i didnt know about that site untill you just mentioned it so thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontariostudent Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I think she was asking because you put the thread in the Ontario section ; ). It might be better off in the General Premed section, if someone has the capacity to move it... I like mdapplicants because it's searchable. The problem is that it's not so widely used by Canadian applicants (though maybe we can change that!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that it's not so widely used by Canadian applicants (though maybe we can change that!). actually its not used by many american applicants as well.. total profiles are 10350 and there are like 20000-30000 americans applying each year.. so yea perhaps we should broadcast this site on SDN or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontariostudent Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Good point. At least on SDN people routinely link their screennames with their mdapps profiles. I wonder if that could somehow be done here (maybe not, I think mdapps is part of SDN)? In some ways, though, I like that we don't have it. American premeds are crazier than Canadian ones.

You could easily put the link in your sig....but with the scarce # of regular posters here and the apparent slew of med school deans browsing this forum, this would just about completely destroy any shreds of anonymity you might have left.
