K-Doc Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 So you guys wanted the threads merged and the original re-opened. Here you go! Hopefully UBC doesn't make you all wait much longer to hear about interview invites. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hking03 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Just getting ready to board a plane to Manitoba- probably won't be able to check for a few hours. Good luck everybody! Wouldn't be just classic if all the excitement ends while I'm on the plane... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hking03 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 And so it begins... Much like Ubc med school... Apparently westjet believes that travel times are mere suggestions... Patiently waiting to board... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 And so it begins... Much like Ubc med school... Apparently westjet believes that travel times are mere suggestions... Patiently waiting to board... LOL. I also have had experiences with both westjet and UBC. I tried to go to Las Vegas and it was snowing in the desert and westjet could not land and instead got rerouted to Los Angeles and then back to Vancouver. Then the real mess happened... Good luck with your application! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Henderson Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 This thread fooled me for the second time when I was about to click the UBC forum and saw "Interview invites!!"... then I came to the realization that this thread was just re-opened! Fool me once... I just want to know the exact date I should anxiously watch my computer screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUNGLICIOUS Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I got a partial file review, then regrets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I got a partial file review, then regrets If you don't mind me asking are you IP or OOP and was that yesterday or today? If you have any more applications I wish you the best of luck on them! Sorry this one didn't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolferGrl Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 It seems as if they have moved from DQ's to partial reviews and next is regrets? all for OOP so far as we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yersinia Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 With a partial file review is it possible to get an interview?? or is it just a mechanism to see what your NAQ score would be? because so far there have only been dsq, partial file review regrets right? no full review regrets yet?

K-Doc Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Just over 30 minutes until 11am! Usually people hear stuff around that time! Hopefully this time it's good news! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that partial file reviews do not result in an interview but they give you information on why you did not receive an interview this year. For the full file review regrets, I do not believe any were posted on this forum so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGGSaint Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 It seems as if they have moved from DQ's to partial reviews and next is regrets? all for OOP so far as we know. If this is the case it may be a case of: Day 1: OOP DQs Day 2: OOP partial file review regrets Day 3: OOP full file review regrets Day 4: OOP interview invites Rinse and repeat for IP for a total of 8 days. Although I'd say OOP full file review regrets and interview invites will go out on the same day. Bah, who knows. In the grand scheme of things waiting another week is no biggie if you are fortunate to get an interview. Will be sad to be rejected after being antsy for a week but that's life.

GolferGrl Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 I think the invites for IP and OOP can go out the same time since they can just build a data base and press a button it must be a form letter. The rejections require the input of individual scores so that must take longer and they may do that separately for IP and OOP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yersinia Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 thanks GGGSaint for the summary thus far...I'm OOP so if I can get through today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue2009 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Just got an e-mail from Queens, almost had a heart attack - I've got my g-mail to assign coloured labels to my mail automatically (yes I am a nerd), and all the med admissions stuff is under the same one ...

ispyne Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 is this how they've done it in the past? like, different categories on different days? i was under the impression that last year all the regrets/invites came out on the same 1-2 days, regardless of IP or OOP?

LeX- Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 If this is the case it may be a case of: Day 1: OOP DQs Day 2: OOP partial file review regrets Day 3: OOP full file review regrets Day 4: OOP interview invites Rinse and repeat for IP for a total of 8 days.

Great plan however I know of two IP individuals who have been DQ'd on the first day. Apart from that, it has been OOP focused so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, last year (and previous years) all invites/regrets were sent out in a short time period and not spread out over a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGGSaint Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Yep, last year (and previous years) all invites/regrets were sent out in a short time period and not spread out over a week. I wonder when it is all settled by next week if we will ever understand why the change from previous years of notifying all applicants in one day, we now go through an 8 day window. Also, what is up with Queen's going rolling when all they have to do is consider MCAT and GPA numbers? Don't understand this. On another topic: It's funny I actually wasted time going through UBC interview invite threads from 5/6 years ago and someone suggested that the AQ needs to be pushed up to max out at 90% to better differentiate students. Quite remarkable that it has happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-Doc Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Great plan however I know of two IP individuals who have been DQ'd on the first day. Apart from that, it has been OOP focused so far. +1 today at school I heard of a few ip getting rejected-not 100 sure whether it was dq or regrets partial file review-I didn't want to inquire too much because they were obviously upset!
