w_robin Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Haha maybe i could sneak into the admissions office..... LOL thats a nightmare. Im planning on staying asleep until 10am at the least I think I'm going to try to be the first person registered, then call in sick and go drown myself in sushi waiting for the biggest Blackberry vibration of my undergrad life. If there's anyone in Toronto that wants to get drinks and sushi while waiting for 10AM, you're welcome to join me lol. (Just kidding, I want to be alone, so that nobody sees a grown man cry).

grindsmygears Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I'll be in toronto, at work. It will be so hard for me not to quit on the spot if i get accepted. It will be ever harder to not want to have a nervous breakdown at work, knowing I will have to work here or somewhere similar for the next year (at least).

w_robin Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 this just killed meahahhaaa so much love right now. We all need to get in and just have a gigantic PM101 party. No lie, I'll hold one. I envision it already. The lights will be dimmed and everyone will have to find their PM101 username on a printed list of name tags. And then, we'll switch on the lights as part of a big reveal and everyone can become super duper friends. YES WE CAN! Then we can play the game, if I had a $250 000 LOC, I would buy a ....

Never have I ever... - spent 2 hours straight on PM101 - said something completely ridiculous at the MMI - applied to medical school more than three times - considered going to the Caribbean - cried to my girlfriend that I'm not going to make it - gotten a mark less than 70 (is it sad that I've done most of the above?)

w_robin Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Is it just me or did entire pages of this thread get deleted? There was a holy mango and papaya reference. I wrote a story about party planning, schoolchildren laughing at my attempt in jogging, meeting the illustrious Wendy Edge, getting accepted between Summerhill and Bloor Stns. You and I became friends. I got into Mac. Ok wait - that last one might not have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsSnrub Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I had a dream that I woke up on Tuesday to an acceptance from Mac. I was super happy, and then didn't hear anything from Western and Queen's all day...until I realized that it was actually Monday. So maybe we'll hear early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I have been lurking on here for too long and just can't contain my nervousness any longer! Just had to make an account and post..bring on tuesday!

w_robin Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I think its a system malfunctionAnd yes i was at the mixer mrssnub im at the phoenix atm I did something bad. I graphed out the distribution of GPAs and VRs in the Invite 2012 thread and Mac's 2011 data. Nothing too mind-blowing. Thoughts? My analysis is below.

But it suggests that the interview doesn't correlate well with the GPA and VR score... or at least that's my analysis. Thoughts? that is terrifying... but I feel like you can't correlate them well because we don't have information on CASPER or how it's written/graded and how that no longer has an effect on your overall interview outcome...

That's why I removed the CASPer confounder by only looking at interview and accepted stats... I see - I should have been more clear with my rationale; it's my fault for not being more specific. I've also made a mistake. The reason I hypothesized that the distributions between the GPA and VR scores are the same between pre- and post- interview is because the interview measures something NOT correlated with either variable. However, those of you who are careful observers of detail might note that I've overlooked something... And it is....... I forgot to include the 30% that is devoted to GPA and VR. Which means that there might in fact be a slight bias in the interview stage towards applicants with lower GPA and VR which is what allows them to maintain a similar distribution despite being disadvantaged by the weighting formula. Which makes obvious sense since they had to have better "soft" skills to make it to this stage (by performing strongly on CASPer) despite their relative disadvantage to begin with. So... this is a stretch - but perhaps CASPer and the Interview measure similar things. BAM. Essentially, I've discovered nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee88 Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Ohhhh I see what you're getting at now haha I was just about to write about the skewed distribution, because I have a 9 in verbal and never expected to get an interview but since CASPER is worth 70% pre-interview... it must have skewed me into the upper end of invites vs. regrets, but now plays no role in terms of the post-interview process... Okay after all that, where is this party going to go down, I feel like Tuesday is rather going to be a champagne showers night or a tequila tuesday <-- based upon the outcomes of the morning, I mean it'll be 5 o'clock somewhere right?!
