i.mourad Posted July 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Forgot to post my stats. Here they are: pGPA: 3.66 Two year full time GPA: 3.69 Last year GPA: 3.86 2 consultation forms: one from a community pharmacist and one from a clinical. Job shadowing a community pharmacist. Volunteering at the Peter lougheed hospital. And last but definitely not least was the letter of intent. I'm pretty sure that's what sealed the deal with my application. It took me 4 months to write it (I know, I know..) but it was definitely worth the time. I can't stress this enough for future applicants, but the letter of intent can easily compensate for lower grades. Don't underestimate it's importance in the application. Good luck to the rest of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubsandwich Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Hmm I'm guessing the reason they were sending out admission letters during the weekend was to compensate for their planned holidays throughout the week. Since they only did Saturday and Sunday, I'm guessing they're taking Tuesday and Wednesday off. Hope the letters start rolling out again tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pharmacy233 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 I've heard everyones beartracks has changed and they are now admitted into the faculty? I'm scared that means first round is over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubsandwich Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Hopefully that's not the case as well. I emailed Rae Sunday Night and she responded monday afternoon telling me that all the letters have not been handed out yet. And given Monday was likely a day-off for the rest of the staff (assuming Rae is just putting in the extra hours), I think there is still hope for us assuming that everything wont be done within 1 day. I havent heard much changes since sunday, so I sure hope everything has been put on hold (instead of the fact that a lot of the previous contributors to this thread have already been admitted).

Tacrolimus Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Just came in this thread to say that I can understand how this process is so tough on people who are still unaware of their status. Try to do something fun or go somewhere. It will occupy like most of your day. Good luck! I really hope you guys get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pharmaaa Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 one of the accepted students talked to Rae and she said that there are 20 more emails to be sent out. Also, last year, around 30 of the accepted declined their offers, meaning that there are still ~50 spots left. Don't get your hopes up guys! hope to see all of you in September!

Tacrolimus Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 @alfredsson, how did your physics course go? It went extremely well, but I still hate it. Haha. I'm wait listed rlly low maybe next year! Though she mentioned there are interviews nxt year Wow, that sucks. But you're only going into your second year, so you have lots of time. I'm sure you will get in next year, if not this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polpark Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 I called Rae today also. If you call and talk to her, and you're not one of the students admitted in the first round (for which she said, most emails have been sent out but not all), she can tell you your rank # out of all the applicants. If you're in the 130-140 range your chances of getting in are still quite high. She said last year 30 students declined, which means students ranked 131-160ish ended up getting in. Keep your hopes up guys, and good luck! She also said that 6 people declined already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait so wouldn't that mean you should be accepted? because technically,if 6 people declined, the top 136 should be in. I got an acceptance letter at around 7pm today. I wish everyone else that is still waiting good luck and dont lose hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations to you though! I am seriously hoping more people decline.. It will suck so much if I don't get in, knowing I was this close..

But if it helps, there are worse ways to go out. I was one of the few idiots that forgot to sign my letter last year so I was instantly DQ from the running. Was a brutal time when I found out.

timrim Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 I found out that I'm #200 or something on the list. So I think that's it for me. Good luck to everyone that's closer on the wait list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
