futuredent19 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hi everyone, I'm currently a 4th year student at Queen's University who have an interview for UWO coming up in April. At this point, this is where I stand... GPA Best 2 Years: 86% AA: 18 I won't be graduating this year since I have withdrawed from my 4th year (therefore, my marks won't change from above) due to personal/family reasons. Realistically speaking.. what are my chances? Where do I stand with everyone else? Do I even have a chance of getting accepted this year? Any input would be greatly appreciated... Thank you and good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leekwd89 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Based on last year's averages: GPA - 88.X% (best 2 years) AA - 20 You are a bit under the average of applicants. That being said, you are also considered applying as a 3rd year, meaning that applicants with a degree will have an advantage over you. You obviously still have a chance since you at least got an interview, but you will need to do exceptionally well on the interview to be admitted. Don't give up though and good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futuredent19 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Thank you for the prompt reply! One more question... I'm guessing many applicants stand within 86.0-88.0%range? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDent2010 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Thank you for the prompt reply! One more question... I'm guessing many applicants stand within 86.0-88.0%range? I am currently at 86% and 19 AA (with honours degree) but since they take best 2 years including the present one I will (if I keep my current academic pace) go up to 89-90%. I would agree that you would have to nail the interview to have a chance of admission in your case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xman Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 I think the safe number for this year is 89% GPA, 20 AA and a degree. Now, if you do exceptionally well on the interview ( which I think most of us will not do) or have a master or did honors degree , then I guess you can have less than 89% and 20 AA and still get admitted.

blahblah1985 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Hey Xman, outta curiosity, is there any particular reason that people do not do well on the interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
