eruthia Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Does anyone know if Mac is still giving graduate applicants the little boost? Master's used to get 0.01 and PhD got 0.04.They seem to have removed it from their website now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearded frog Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Refer to the OMSAS 2015 instruction manual for the official policies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indefatigable Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 According to Admissions, the "graduate bonus" has been removed for the next application cycle although it is here for 2015. I would think it would make a difference for PhD holders especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
km2kenne Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 They're removing the graduate bonus next cycle? Well, here's hoping it didn't help me get an interview last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indefatigable Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Hey - apparently so! If you had an interview, you must have had a really strong Casper with a lower gpa. The other thread suggests Z-scores are used, which means that with a gpa under 3.6/3.5, a really strong verbal score (13+) and casper would be needed to get an interview. If that is the case, only a phd bonus would have made a bit of a difference but not much.. I wonder how tough getting a "15" would be - on the new MCAT ...
