wallaroo Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Time stamp: Dec. 4th 10:48 AM PST Result: Invite - regular deadline aGPA: 85% MCAT: 32 ECs: A couple of high level member of UG organizations, a few mid level member of UG organizations, the longest of them spanning 3 years, and the shortest for a few months. Research position (volunteer, no pubs) at 3 labs. Oversea volunteering trip, a few high school extracurriculars. I think the most significant thing is that I have consistency in my interests - all my research was about one particular field along my oversea volunteering trip. Also if I had space, I'd talk about how the experience shaped and improved certain qualities that would make a good physician. Year: graduated UG April 2014 Geography: IP So happy - last year I missed the cutoff by literally 0.9 points so very glad this time I got the interview!

youngdad Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Congratulations to everyone with interview invites! I'm a second year UBC family practice resident. I would be happy to consult with folks with interview invites who are on Vancouver Island. No charge. MMI was a strength of my application from my estimation. I was accepted in province (UBC) and out of province (Dal) for the two MMI's I did. I've got plenty of experience doing interview prep for applicants pro bono. I promised myself that if I got into medical school I would help others striving to get in. This is one way I do it and I enjoy it. PM me if you are an Islander with an interview and we can figure something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
