Can anyone confirm what "Reviewed - Decision Pending" means? I heard it meant Interview Waitlist, but I'm assuming the interview waitlist is almost never used?

It does. But if I remember correctly on these forums last year there were a few people who got off the wait list (and are now my colleagues!).

I think the email comes sometime around midnight - 1 am! I remember thinking 'its totally a mistake, until I see that email I wont believe its true'. Trust me, this admissions committee does not make mistakes! You're going to an interview! - time to celebrate and prepare!

Dear X,

This is an automated message to advise you of an update to the document checklist for your Fall 2015 Faculty of Medicine M D C M application (app #X).

Is this what we're supposed to receive when we're invited to the interview? Is there anything else we need to upload?!

Also, just received another e-mail officially inviting me to the interview: 

''Your Fall 2015 application to the Faculty of Medicine's MDCM (Doctor of Medicine and Master of Surgery) program, under the Quebec Resident (Univ. Level) category, has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee.  On the basis of this preliminary review, we are pleased to invite you to McGill for an interview session. ''

I got this and then within 10 minutes got a second email actually saying that I got an interview

 

Same email... but where can we find the documents to upload (accepting  invite and non-disclosure agreement) ? 

 

The second email has this link: http://www.mcgill.ca/medadmissions/mdis/

 

Looks like it has all the info! Super excited guys!

You should call them maybe?

 

I will. I thought that maybe they were overwhelmed yesterday with over 2k answers to send out, so I thought that maybe they wouldn't have had the time to send them all. But I was certain I'd get an answer today. Since it didn't come, I'll call them tomorrow.

I don't know any of your stats or your situation, but maybe they are hesitant about your file. I know that they can offer a qualifying year, but not sure how that works. Especially because you are QC-Uni, with so many people, why single out a person... anyways, good luck! Let us know what happens!!!!!
