determined26 Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I was refused too... But congrats to the people who made it! Can you guys share with us what is you R-score? And do you know if McGill looks only at the R-Score when selecting people for the interviews or they look at the whole application (pers. narrative, references, etc...)? Thanks and congrats to everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks and congrats to everybody! From what I've read on their website, they look at everything. I'm sorry for those who did not have an invite. There are still 3 schools to choose from! My R-score: 34.9XX I had about 10 entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feversugar Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 my R score is 36.438 I only had about 15ish entries in my cv personally, but I think they were diverse enough to prove I'm a well-rounded person... I had 6 references I believe they look at grades, CV, personal narrative abstract and maybe personal narrative itself as a whole to select who gets an interview. But after that they will disregard grades because it's 50% interview, 50% personal narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it's 20% for personal narrative and 80% for the MMIs;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capucine Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Congratulations Capucine I'm sure you earned it well, I hope you'll get in! Keep me in touch! Thanks! =D I will! I'm sorry for those who got refused. Don't give up! There's still the french school! I have a R-Score of 35,8xx and about 12~13 CV entries. And I had ''only'' 4 references, so I guess the number did not matter much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CREA.tive Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Hey guys. Did anyone receive a confirmation e-mail after having replied to the interview invitation? Thanks in advance. No, but everything was received on their side according to Minerva:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capucine Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 No, but everything was received on their side according to Minerva:) Same for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capucine Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 You know what's funny? McGill's MMI are free, but the french ones cost $100 each . I know! In fact, the french interview costs 300$ (if you got an invitation from the three universities) while McGill's cost nothing. Conclusion : McGill has a lot of $$$?

over9000 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Ça n'a rien à voir avec les donations. Simplement que McGill utilise son centre de simulation au lieu d'une section de l'hopital, comme à Maisonneuve-Rosement. Et il n'y a que 200 personnes aux entrevues, contrairement au 600+ aux francophones. C'est simplement l'argent qui vient de la faculté. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capucine Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Mais les 600+ des francophones sont réparties sur les 3 universités, ce qui fait 200 personnes par université! Je ne savais pas que ça se faisait dans leur centre de simulation, j'avoue que ça fait que le coût de leurs entrevues doit être moindre que celui des francophones (même s'ils doivent encore payer les évaluateurs, acteurs, etc).

Tu jases de la sauce, tu oublies les 200 autres universitaires à interviewer on doit même les séparer en deux catégories : IP et OOP. McGill se retrouve à avoir, environ, le même nombre de candidats à passer en entrevue par année que les autres facultés québécoises. Il y a environ 1200 personnes convoquées aux MEMFI (universitaires et cégépiens), répartis sur les 3 facultés, on se retrouve pas mal aux 400 de McGill.

over9000 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 À McGill, il y aura ~200 personnes convoquées pour ~80 places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAmDisappoint Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 40% of interviewees are accepted, that's reassuring... however there's so many exceptional applicants . Good luck to all on the interviews! And congratulations on making it this far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capucine Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Ça doit être plus que 40% vu que certains refusent leur offre =) Mais je pense que McGill est la seule université qui ne dévoile pas le nombre de personnes qui acceptent/refusent une offre... Donc on ne peut pas savoir à quel point la liste d'attente va loin. Maiiis ne pensons pas à la liste d'attente tout suite, commençons par faire l'entrevue!

CREA.tive Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 J'ai tellement hâte! Il s'agit de ma première entrevue de ce genre:) J'espère que ça me donnera le goût d'aller au MEMs par la suite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
over9000 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Je vous dirais que l'année dernière, il y a quand même une bonne fraction des 80 qui venaient de la liste d'attente. Et je crois que cette proportion va augmenter encore cette année à cause de l'augmentation du nombre d'applicants. Donc les chances restent quand même bonnes! Et les entrevues de McGill vous donneront plus de confiance pour les MEMFI la semaine d'après!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
