nick Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Do you know where people will post their "statuses" on May 14? I dry heave a little every time I think of the day approaching so quickly!! Presumably on the accepted/waitlisted/rejected sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeynut Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I'm very happy that Ontario gets out of the way prior to this for myself. It can be an extreme relief or extremely stressful depending how Ontario goes. Good luck everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amichel Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 1 week. Anyone else checking their email a little bit more frequently today just incase they decide to release 1 week early like last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amichel Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Anyone know what order they release results in? As in, is it rejections then acceptances, or is it all at once, or whatever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfdes Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Anyone know what order they release results in? As in, is it rejections then acceptances, or is it all at once, or whatever? They're not UBC, so we can probably expect that they do something reasonable, like releasing everything all at once Skimming the thread last year, it appears that both accepted and rejected emails were sent out at the same time, around 2:20 PST on the early date.

Haha yah. I wonder why UBC does it that way. They claim that they have to do it in batches due to the system, but Calgary uses the same software?... They're just cruel. I looked at the thread from last year but wasn't sure if I could trust the time stamps due to the unexpected release, so thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the thread from last year but wasn't sure if I could trust the time stamps due to the unexpected release, so thanks! Yeah UBC has some really odd policies...I remember last year they released interview rejections in the middle of the December exam period, and probably made a whole bunch of people do much worse on their exams as a result lol. But anyways, that's enough about UBC in the Calgary thread xD I was a bit unsure about the timestamps as well, but they seemed quite consistent, in that there were large groups of them within minutes of each other that contained both accepted and rejected posts. Not to mention that I'm positive there were (and will be this year as well) a group of people who immediately posted here as soon as they received news (pretty sure you're gonna be one of them also haha).

Leon Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 3 more days! To every one of you waiting, I want you to remember forever what it feels like right now. Remember the agony, the anxiety, the difficulty of not knowing the decision. When you are in medical school (and most of you will, if not this year then another, for you are great candidates already to have made it to the interview), these days are the ones that will keep you going. Recalling the hardship and difficulty associated with admission is one of the best drives when life in medical school gets challenging. Remember the next 3 days. Document them. Write down something. One day, you will look back on this. And it could change your day. My heartfelt best wishes to everyone. To those of you that don't get in this year, I can only say try and try again. Most med students try more than once to get in. With the right effort and the right circumstances, things will work in your favour. Good luck, Calgary interviewees 2017!

I would normally be one of those people too, but I'm getting my wisdom teeth out on the 14th. So maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
