kylamonkey Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 I'll be honest with it- my wGPA is 3.35. I'm pretty proud of what I managed to do, actually, and when you consider that includes a year that is under 2.6 (from 1997!), and my dropped year was 0.48 (!), I'm happy with it. I did a lot during the time I was in school and had a lot of responsibilities (running a $600K per year business, continuing to compete in sports) and I'm happy. I think I'm in love with UofC, and I kind of want to resurrect the "Dr Walker appreciation thread" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP_gooner Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 What do you think the lowest wGPA + VR score will be to make OOP file review?? Surely 9 or 10 will be around the VR cutoff for file review. Not sure about the wGPA though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhgel Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 3.63, just made the cutoff to apply for OOP!! lol but I have a 14 in verbal to boost up my score there is a cut-off for OOP? cut-off for file review? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhgel Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 3.63, just made the cutoff to apply for OOP!! lol but I have a 14 in verbal to boost up my score and 14 VR. nicely done!! AMAZING! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhgel Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 3.98 here. Since they are weighting GPA twice as heavily as VR, I have my finger's crossed that it'll be enough to overcome my 9! Facepalm. now now, don't be mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apixaban85 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 3.84 and 9VR, OOP As average as it gets for the OOP pool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dassy Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 and 14 VR. nicely done!! AMAZING! Thanks Got really lucky with the exam. Made going to a Canadian medical school an actual possibility considering my lower-end gpa. If you applied to Calgary as an OOP, it's something you should've been well aware of. He might be in province. Mughel: it's a 3.6 as an OOP to apply and then they weight your gpa and verbal scores against all the OOP applicants and carry the best ~250 over for full-file review. Correct captain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dassy Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Also...does anybody know how much they adjust your GPA when it comes to the difficulty of your program/courses? I'm just wondering if it's a minor change or if it can actually inc/dec it quite a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asta Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Also...does anybody know how much they adjust your GPA when it comes to the difficulty of your program/courses? I'm just wondering if it's a minor change or if it can actually inc/dec it quite a bit? As far as I know, they don't adjust your GPA. Difficulty and courses can come into play with the subjective review though. For my GPA (IP): Posted yesterday: 3.77 Posted today: 3.78 ACTUAL GPA from Adele: 3.97 VR: 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

repede Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Oof. People's marks are way too high... To have achieved 3.8+ even with UCalgary's method of calculating, you deserve a pat on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastboundanddown Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Everyone has such a high GPA lol. Here's to hoping that the posts in this thread are not representative of the OOP applicant pool. I'd like to remain cautiously optimistic about my chances Typical for this thread, it seems! Haha, I was just thinking the same. People are smart. but are 249 people who applied OOP smarter than me? It seems highly likely lol. I guess it will be up to the thunder gods.

It seems highly likely lol. I guess it will be up to the thunder gods. It does seem likely that 249 from all over Canada could have significantly better GPA's than my 3.75 I am hoping my 11 VR could help but with twice the weight on the GPA my hopes are dwindling.
