stealthy1 Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Time: 2:45pm IP GPA: 80.83 AGPA: 81.97 AQ=20.12 (Completed MSc, outside of Canada. Thesis publication and project presentation, attained top 10% of class for my degree) NAQ=25.27 (Pharmacy, lots of various volunteering, two jobs, sports and coaching, tutoring special needs, lots of hours) TFR=45.39 MCAT=11/9/11 (Written thrice) Early Deadline Very disappointed in my NAQ score. My AQ score I could do nothing more than upping it to 82% but I am almost sure that my varied experiences and unconventional activities would at least score me on par with what the invited students have. But no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherThought Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 While decisions are going out, please be respectful of other people that may be receiving bad news. Also, keep in mind that rejections/invites are sent out in 'waves'. Thus, there could be rejections on any of the days this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StayHappy Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 To everyone receiving regrets - stay strong I've been there five years in a row. If this is something you want, keep pursuing your goal. Figure out how to improve and do your best. It stings watching your peers succeed as you fall short but do not lose your drive/motivation if you are within grasp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we still haven't been notified, doesn't mean we won't hear anything until at least tmrw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we still haven't been notified, doesn't mean we won't hear anything until at least tmrw? There can certainly be more than one wave per day. I think last year's first day of rejections was 3 waves. The only reprieve is when the office is not open (4:30pm - 8am). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we still haven't been notified, doesn't mean we won't hear anything until at least tmrw? It seems like people have different timestamps on their emails, so I would think that there are probably going to be more today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MD/PhD applicant from OOP Time Stamp: 5:42 Result: Reject aGPA: 87.68 MCAT: 31 (11/10/10) ECs: I have done so much research, volunteered at various places (hospitals, summer camps, university mentorship...), received several large awards from my university (ranging from $700 to $6000). I really thought I had a good range of activities listed (filled all of the given slots with meaningful activities) Early/Regular Deadline: Regular Year: BSc, last year of studies Geography: OOP (MD/PhD) AQ: 28.65 NAQ: 22.83 TFR: 51.48 I am very very confused about my NAQ score... I consider my extracurriculars to be the strongest part of my application and I ended up with a 22, which is way below the average accepted NAQ. This is so disappointing. I am scared for the rest of my IP applications Who are you going to contact for an appeal? I think we have been rejected by the MD committee. They are the ones that review all MD and MD/PhD applications and only those that are successful in the MD application are then reviewed for the PhD portion.
