dent144 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 My friend status is "ready for review", do you think it's a good sign or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarryNight Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 It is hard to say. If all rejections went out already, then it is a good thing. If, however, they are staggering both rejection and interview updates, then it doesn't mean anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAR183 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Mine still says "ready for review" as well. Ugh, the anticipation is killing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedLily Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 So "further review required" status means an interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarryNight Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Yes. Expand 'Minerva status updates and decision codes: what they mean' on this page. Look on your checklist on Minerva for your interview date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLily Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Yes. Expand 'Minerva status updates and decision codes: what they mean' on this page. Look on your checklist on Minerva for your interview date. Thanks. I know this was mentioned earlier in the thread but I was afraid to be happy about it unless I was sure. Now I see where they want me to upload more documents on Minerva. Happy to have an interview, good luck to those still waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idontliketwilight Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 For those of you who received invites or received rejections from McGill, did you receive an email from the admissions office? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLily Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 For those of you who received invites or received rejections from McGill, did you receive an email from the admissions office? No email yet, just a Minerva status change. It sounds like OOP interviewees (from Feb 10th) received emails much later in the evening, so probably the same thing for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ady Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I got waitlisted for an interview (IP). Anyone know how likely it is to get an interview at this point? I can't imagine too many people rejecting their interview invites. Argghh so stressful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishfulMED Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Have checked my Minerva account all afternoon. My friend got rejected and my status is still "Ready for review". Anyone else's status unchanged? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WACOWACO Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Have checked my Minerva account all afternoon.

wishfulMED Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Same situation. Hang in there Thanks! If I don't get an invite to McGill, do I still have good chances for ULaval and Sherbrooke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expat Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Further Review a few hours ago. Stats: ROQ, 3.84 GPA, 4.0 in pre-reqs. No MCAT submitted. Anyone have any insight into accepted vs enrolled stats? From the AFMC website looks like only 5 people in the MDCM category declined offers last year...so, 89 (enrolled) + 5 = 94 out of 200 => 47% chance of acceptance. Not bad! I've lived in the US for a while, so don't really have my fingers on the pulse of Canadian med schools...for whom, if anyone, would an ROQ applicant turn down McGill?

eugene447 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Thanks! If I don't get an invite to McGill, do I still have good chances for ULaval and Sherbrooke? assuming your GPA is good, yes. To get interviews for french schools, they only look at your marks.

ToHopeornottoHope Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Got offer of interview today! Cannot believe it. Here are my stats In province applicant, Francophone (but did English CEGEP and uni) 3.76 GPA... wasn't sure this would be enough. 34 MCAT (13-11-10) Felt good about my essay but I talked about very unique personal situations and what I learnt from them.. Wasn't sure if it would work at all. Experiences: Volunteer suicide counselor for 3 years, also trained the new counselors (1 year), research in 5 different university labs (since high school) including paid employment and in-hospital work with patients, involved in student clubs, fundraisers and did two humanitarian missions. Talked about a few hobbies/artistic and athletic interests. DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED if you didn't get one. I applied for pre-med and got rejected across the board before interviews. Applied for UdeM last year and got rejected pre-interview for being 0.001 points below the cutoff. This is my third round, and I'm finally getting a chance!

QueSeraSera Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 So my interview is scheduled for March 25th but I have a conflict with the date. The AED mentioned that the only way to get a spot on the 26th (which is the only day I can interview without some serious rescheduling required on my end) would be if someone switched out of their spot on the 26th! Anyone willing to make this switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariamaria Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Hey, I can't confirm just yet but there's a good chance I'd need to switch dates...currently scheduled for march 26. send me a private msg and we can discuss further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLily Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 So after we submit our documents online to confirm our interview… is that it? Is there a confirmation of our confirmation ? Or are we good (just paranoid that I'm missing something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGlamar Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 So after we submit our documents online to confirm our interview… is that it? Is there a confirmation of our confirmation ? Or are we good (just paranoid that I'm missing something) well since we're venting our paranoid thoughts, i got a question for you guys. Its just the "Medicine Interview Session", "Med Non Disclosure Agreement", and "Photo Identification" we need to upload right? I noticed that there were links that say "Upload New Version" beside Transcript and Proof of Citizenship and I can't remember if they were always there or if they are actually requesting it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
