UBCStudent128 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Post-Interview: all aspects of applicants’ files are looked at. The Admissions Selection Committee will consider that applicants, whatever their particular academic background, have demonstrated they are likely to perform well in the rigorous curriculum and problem-based format of the program. Assessment of academic performance also includes reviewing trends in grades from year to year as well as senior undergraduate and graduate level achievements completed by application deadline. I haven't seen this before.. I think this is new? The website seems totally different from what it used to be. The first bolded part seems to imply they look at how rigorous your courseload has been. Also the second bolded part says they look at trends, which I didn't know UBC did ? Any thoughts???

Wachaa Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Actually the first part implies that they won't care how hard your degree was, so long that it demonstrates you can work hard in *medicine*, which has a rigorous curriculum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
