Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted??? (for current applicants)

Recommended Posts

Accepted off the waitlist today to Niagara campus

Timestamp: May 30 @ 9:53AM

 

GPA: 3.7

MCAT VR: 11

Interview: It was a fun experience. I think that I did well at some stations but there were definitely a few that didn't go well (like a typical MMI).

 

To those still waiting: I understand the disappointment, fear, & anxiety that these weeks have felt like. Waiting is hard and not natural - but perseverance will build character (a trait of a great physician). I hope next year (whatever it may hold for you) goes well for you.

Declined right after I found out. To be honest, I really didn't like Mac at the interview. I found everything to be very disorganized and I didn't connect with the faculty. I am attending U of A in the fall. Just thought I would add my stats to the collection...

Accepted! :D

Hamilton Campus (1st choice)

 

Time stamp: 8:37 AM

OMSAS cGPA: 3.75

EC: I don't think it really matters for McMaster

MMI: Took my time to collect my thoughts even when it ate into my interview time. Felt OK when I left. Felt that I could have done better.

 

I'm very happy :) Although Queen's was my 1st choice, McMaster was my 2nd and I'm going to accept.

Interview: Felt great after, and then progressively worse until I was convinced I systematically screwed up with my approach. 1 bad station, 1 iffy station, 2-3 great stations, the rest decent/ambiguous. Guess it went well, though!
