ellorie Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Anyone know what they look at to decide interviews once you've met the cutoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Anyone know what they look at to decide interviews once you've met the cutoffs?That you've meet the 3/5 course level requirement and you've taken a full course load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellorie Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 So everyone who meets the basic requirements gets an interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maher Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 If you meet the cutoffs and satisfy the full-year course load, you're pretty much guaranteed an interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maher Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 So everyone who meets the basic requirements gets an interview? Pretty much, they setup the cutoffs so that they have a target of around 470 interviewees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gb35 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Still gonna be nervous for the next week or so, until I get that email in my inbox. Same. I'll believe it when I see it. Although I think someone last year told me that if you met the cutoffs but didn't get an interview, it said to call them? Maybe I'm wrong... I guess in case they mistakenly assessed your course load or something? Any truth to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess in case they mistakenly assessed your course load or something? Any truth to this? Yup, that is correct! everyone will be nervous of course - there is a lot on the line, but really it is basically pretty clear at this point if you are going to get an interview or not. The reason we post the cut offs is to give you a bit of a heads up I think. If it wasn't a pretty much automatic from this point we wouldn't post them at all and just do what all the other schools do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apixaban85 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Why are you lost? What's up? Since they took the cutoffs off the page. But like someone said, it's probably just word changes or merging with the blog. On a side note, when did Queen's get a new site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, when did Queen's get a new site Maybe they were jealous of the new stuff the UWO put on their site. On another side note, wow the Queen's deposit (if you get accepted) is high. I thought it was only a few hundred dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gb35 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Um, has anyone confirmed that those WERE the cutoffs, seeing as they're gone now. It would be devastating to find out that I was wrong all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
