Does anyone know if they are updating regrets on minerva as well?

Amen. I think I'm averaging 3 clicks/minute.... (kind of joking...)

do we need to confirm anything?

 

The invitation-to-interview email will ask you for a reply to confirm your attendance (and, also, to send in photo identification). congrats!

[dinosaur]

Anyone received an invitation for a French interview?

 

(Maybe that could explain the reason why it's taking so long!!!)

 

I'm just looking for explanations to buffer my anxiety

[ShootingStar]

"Command-R"ing like a boss. GAH

[Albertan10]

i didnt have to wait that long, but i did go insane doing so especially after some got an invite. commanding R was being done every nanosecond. just remember invites are being sent out today and tomorrow.

Does anyone know what further review means? A nice way of saying rejection?

Category & Academic Level: IP

Current Educational Institution & Location: Current: Doctor of Veterinary Medicine at Udem. Past: BSc at McGill.

GPA or R Score: hmm, hard to say, because I'm not sure what they counted (they only count a second bachelor if you've completed 45 credits, but at the time of admissions I had only done 44 credits of my vet degree). I graduated from McGill with a 3.7

MCAT if applicable: N/A

ECs/Volunteering: average ECs, strong research

Other Comments: Interview on Feb. 21st. I applied for MD/PhD.

REALLY? Not that I don't believe you but HOW do you know? Was I supposed to know? REALLY?

congrats!!!

[rgol1988]

i wonder how they are establishing whose minerva status they update today vs tomorrow

this is so agonizing

[mb222]

REALLY? Not that I don't believe you but HOW do you know? Was I supposed to know? REALLY?

 

They said something on Twitter this morning.

[dinosaur]

Just look at items outstanding on Minerva, and an Interview session should have appeared...

see post #65 on this same thread (I searched it specially for you )

[dac11]

Just for all those non-traditional students out there - I'm an IP with a terrible sciences GPA and a nursing degree and I "think" I have an invite - I have a "for further review" and "Feb 20th" in the interview space on minerva. It can be done! I hope I'm not getting excited for nothing and that an invite actually comes tonight!

[crete]

Thank you. I blame the emphasis on "Evidence Based Learning" for my disbelief with out further proof.
