I'm not a very accurate typer so I had many spelling mistakes, and didn't capitalize the beginning of my sentences or the word "I", so there's some evidence that stuff doesn't matter In province or out of province: IP Currently year: 4th year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timestamp and Format: 1:17PM, e-mail Invite/Rejection: Invite cGPA: 3.98 (OMSAS) VR Score: 12 How you felt the CASPER went: Had absolutely no idea, but I was happy that my answers reflected what I felt I would 'really' do in each situation rather than what I thought they were looking for. I think that this is really important to be as genuine as possible and represent yourself as best you can to the AdComs.

trojjanhorse Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 So for those who did not get an email or mail regarding invites today, do we just assume that we got rejected? (I see people writing "assumed rejection") that's right. this is how it was carried out last year. The only difference this year is that mail is being sent out for rejection at the same time as opposed to last year where rejections were sent out much later (2 weeks later) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
