Interview Invitations 2011

[PremedGuy1]

Any ideas as to how many OOPs they interview and how much the waitlist moves?

[madskillz99]

From 2011 AFMC:

 

"These [interviews] take place from late February to early March, 2011. For the August, 2010 entering class there were 247 Manitoba residents interviewed and 50 other residents of Canada interviewed for a total of 297 applicants interviewed."

So it seems that once you get an interview as an OOP, you're in the same pool as the IPs, right?

[proton]

Oh, true. Good point.

Just goes to show that numbers don't mean everything.

From my experience, interview dates/times are decided randomly and have nothing to do with your GPA/MCAT.

 

The issue's not what time the interviews are at, this thread is about who got an interview and who didn't.

 

Btw I'd just like to say congratulations to those who got invited, and good luck with your whole application here and at other schools.

Is there no fee to come for an interview? I know for many other schools there is a ~$75 fee to confirm you interview spot, is this just not there for Manitoba (if so, yay!)
