TarCalion Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 congratulatons everyone, I am a little curious, are all of you residents from northern rural communities? I was just wondering if anyone from southern ontario in the gta has received an interview invite this year I grew up in Kenora, Ontario (lived there for 12+ years), quite remote and small as far as they go. I came to southern Ontario (Kingston & Toronto) for school and haven't gone back. So I suppose as far as they are concerned I'm from the north but don't live there anymore. I don't know how that affects my application though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostLamb Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Ixnay on the interviewnay. Still need to hear from 4 more schools. Congrats to the interview recipients! NOSM has the most relaxing and fun interviews! Plus, the people in those communities are some of the nicest I have met on my interview travels.

Cnussey Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Rejected this year. Expected it, considering the GPA from my last degree will have a brand spankin' new GPA soon (and a good one too, by the looks of it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrogirl Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Rejected and from rural Alberta, but my OMSAS GPA was just barely 3.0 so that's probably why. I would have been shocked if I had gotten an interview. If I don't get in elsewhere this year, I'm going to take more undergrad classes and reapply, because I think NOSM is awesome.

NOSM won't add extra courses to your GPA if you already have a degree. They will erase your old GPA, however, if you begin a new degree--the new GPA will kick in after you have completed at least 1 full year of studies and are nearing the end of the new degree. (So if you only need two years worth of classes to get a second degree, after the first year, your new GPA will be the one they look at for the application--and any transferred credits that are necessary for the new GPA are NOT calculated in the new GPA even if they are from the previous degree). Pretty sweet deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMaverick Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Got an interview! Thunder Bay March 26th 2pm. For those wondering, I'm from northern BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoote Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Wow, I can't believe I got an interview! Saturday Mar 26 at 1030 hrs in TB. I'm in the mitary currently stationed in Shilo, MB. I'm actually from Brandon, MB originally. I think my OMSAS GPA was 3.3 as they cut out my college courses. Good luck you guys!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sweet deal. Oh, yeah, that's right! I'm getting NOSM confused with McMaster. My backup plan is to start a second degree at Athabasca and just take courses non-stop.

Femto Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 First MD rejection down, hopefully no more than one less the number of schools I applied to to go! lol Kinda feels not so good right now. Congrats everyone, and good luck! (ps - not from the north, so should have expected it. Although I did spend over two years living in the north after HS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoote Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Thanks Astrogirl! I appreciate the encouraging remarks you gave me during the application process. They were really helpful. Good luck with the rest of your applications! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoote Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 A quick question, do they have an orientation the day before the interview? For example, do the TB interviewees need to be there say the 25th for an orientation before the interviews on the 26th and 27th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The info will be in your package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
