kawalac Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Same here. I don't see why they're making us wait until Monday to get our score. I'd like to see how close I was to the cutoff. EDIT- just calculated my own score based on their algorithm. 450.80. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metukah Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 whats the formula again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawalac Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 62.517 (gpa) + 12.122 (mcat,vr) + 6.757(mcat,bs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 That seems consistent with what it was last year, I believe. Plus, the general consensus around pm101 was that you needed to have above a 451 to be competitive for an OOP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shikimate Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 rejected here as well with score ~445. I didn't hold much hope either and was hoping for a miraculous decrease in cutoff. Come on Queens, start sending emails! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it'll just make getting an interview somewhere else feel that much better (positive thinking)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I am not worried about MCAT for Queens and UWO (12/11/11/R), but my cGPA is borderline (3.69) because 1st year hurt me badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xIcewind Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Wow the cutoff went up pretty high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGB Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I forget, these e-mails just let OOP students know that their files have or have not been sent for complete file review, correct? Thats correct. If you are in the top ranked group of OOP applicants then they will actually read the rest of your file...if not they don't even bother.

MGB Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I actually moved to Alberta this past year for this very reason. Had a full file review at U of C last year and scored a 71. OOP cutoff was around 72 for interview but for in province was only a 66. Seems like OOP applicants only have a shot if your GPA is like a 4.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azul Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I haven't heard either way but I think my score is over the cut-off. Did anyone get a positive email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOP cutoff was around 72 for interview but for in province was only a 66. Seems like OOP applicants only have a shot if your GPA is like a 4.0 Need more than a 4.0... apparently... MCAT scores really hurt sometimes. Good luck to everyone with their other applications! Maybe all these super applicants will take Calgary and leave us spots elsewhere!?

Guest Juicy.Fruit Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I made the cut but no email. these "super" applicants are not necessarily super every where... i got cut at McGill. it seems like I have best shot at schools that weigh MCAT in some way in their evaluation.

Jojef Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Count another one for the OOP smackdown. Does anyone know if they give us OOPs any information aside from our cutoff score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMaverick Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 This is all for OOP "progression to full file review" right? And actual interview invites won't be sent until February sometime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojef Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Yep, that's right. Interview invites for both OOP and IP are out sometime in February I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpy Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Count another one for the OOP smackdown. Does anyone know if they give us OOPs any information aside from our cutoff score? I don't think they will, Jojef. They haven't done a full file review yet, so all they've seen is your MCAT and best 2-year GPA. You should be able to calculate your score yourself rather than wait until Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to calculate your score yourself rather than wait until Monday. Precisely. For everyone who hasn't gotten an e-mail yet, just calculate your score.

tnfifn Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Hi ssd, From the applicant manual it looks like last year they interviewed 127 OOP students out of the 250 selected for a full file review (out of about 1,000 total OOP applications). They accept roughly 25 students that are OOP. Wow I didn't even know so many people were cut before a full file review. Really makes you realize that a lot of students aren't doing their homework on OOP applications (I can understand applying if you're around 440, but there are surely people with far lower scores that apply). Note that the qualifications for interview now change dramatically from the "file review" score. MCAT is much less important, cumulative GPA (rather than best 2 years) is far more important, and activities/references now matter. Where did you get the 1000 from?
