tinatat Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Apparently it does. It's easy enough to follow I agree though, the food was standard. Not good, not bad... but it's pretty much what I would expect to be fed. Well I only have 2 other schools for comparison! Between those 3, McMaster definitely owned it.

amichel Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Well I only have 2 other schools for comparison! Between those 3, McMaster definitely owned it. UBC's food was pretty nasty. I took a muffin, then had to try to throw it out without anyone seeing me, it was so gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savac Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Well I only have 2 other schools for comparison! Between those 3, McMaster definitely owned it. I enjoyed my food at Queen's way more than Mac. They gave me a ticket and I went to a buffet on the other side of the campus. All you can eat for free. Gets my seal of approval Not to say that the Mac food was bad or anything. It was fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I was at Queen's was for an in-residence program back when I was in grade 7, and they had amazing food back then, too. Seems like it's a consistent strength with Queen's!

futurefamilydoc Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I interviewed Sunday, thought the various stations were quite interesting. The food was alright, but I personally preferred the lunch from UofT, it just seemed better quality somehow (in fact I overheard some other people say the same thing on Sunday). Regardless of the food situation, I was extremely impressed with the Hamilton campus, it was nicer than I had expected. The student hosts were all super helpful and friendly as well, it definitely helped reduce my stress levels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarvish Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Reading through last year's acceptance thread was an awful idea. So many people with higher stats felt good about the interview and got flat out rejected. I felt quite good about 9 stations but who knows what the interviewers thought. Weird how stressful it is considering nothing about it can be changed anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarvish Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Should have taken my advice to focus on other things I have a quiz in 2 hours that I'm bored of reviewing for. In the future, I will choose alternative methods of procrastination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarvish Posted March 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 I have no point of comparison but I enjoyed the video. Sounded like the whole room was laughing when they saw it Saturday morning. One of the med students for my group found it absolutely hilarious.

Heisencat Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 I have a question for current Mac Med students: What was the subject of your acceptance email? Something like "Congratulations" or "Acceptance Offer"? I imagine one would be able to tell from the subject whether they got in or not. And that those who are rejected will get an email with a more generic title like "Interview Results." hahaha I'm obsessing over this too much, but just curious...

It was obvious from the title that it was an acceptance. The title also says what campus you are accepted to. Not sure if it'll be the same this year... good luck!

ygella Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 For all those who interviewed today, how do you guys feel? I actually really enjoyed the whole MMI experience (it was my first time) and was impressed with the student volunteers and the Mac campus in general.

I actually really enjoyed the whole MMI experience (it was my first time) and was impressed with the student volunteers and the Mac campus in general. I thought that the stations covered a lot of interesting topics and overall I had a positive experience. I have absolutely no idea how to gauge my performance, though, and I'm worried that I was not able to include too many personal anecdotes to make my answers more unique. Really impressed by the school, I will definitely be giving it consideration if I'm fortunate enough to get an acceptance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually really enjoyed the whole MMI experience (it was my first time) and was impressed with the student volunteers and the Mac campus in general. I interviewed at Mac last year and I was super excited with what the two-person station was this year compared to last year. I thought the information session was somewhat less impressive than last year, though that may be because it was my second time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
