damha Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Now that all of the interviews are done, how is everyone feeling? Any plans to distract yourself for the next month haha, other than exams for those of us still in school! Its so scary to think our interview scores are already determined, and they're just sitting around waiting to be ranked!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was nice to have the april 1st interview, more time to prepare, but why in the world does it have to take over a month to figure it out?! lol sooo lonnnggggggg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowStar Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Anyone waiting who's already out of school? I can't stop thinking about May 12th. Every few hours I stare at the calendar expecting it to be 2 days away but being sorely disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleming Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Wow.. what's your top choice? Tough to say. I think it'd be one of Queen's, UBC, or UofT (if I get an interview there). But I'd be incredibly happy to go anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damha Posted April 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 The wait gets so much more difficult the closer it gets to May 12th Exactly one month today we will know! So nerve wracking. Its like a roller coaster of emotions, at one moment you're sure you're in then the next you're positive you'll get bad waitlisted somehow, I honestly don't know lol. My other friends who interviewed places don't talk about may 12th, whenever I bring it up they pretend I never said anything! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candie Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Technically, 29 days 19 hours and 52 minutes? haha Plus the wait (and living on pm101) is making it way harder to focus on final exams right now.. such bad timing. Is that just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that just me? Im with you haha on all my study breaks I check pm101, one of which is right now lol but i'll be done exams in a little over a week so I can only imagine the wait will get worse once we are done exams since we won't have anything to occupy our time!

Candie Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Yeah, so I've booked a two-week vacation followed by a full-time research project this summer. Here's hoping all that fun (hah) will keep me distracted... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping all that fun (hah) will keep me distracted... Again i'm with you on that too! lol a week after my exams i'm working full time in a lab so that will keep me distracted... although a two week vacation definitely is not in my future you lucky person! Where are you going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candie Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Oh not far, just Montreal and Quebec City - saving my bigger travel plans for later (hopefully later this summer, or y'know, one of these years) haha. Kind of unnerving to think they may already have ranked us and decisions are made, waiting to be released... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damha Posted April 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Nice nice, quebec is always a good time! And ya it was so scary leaving the interview room and knowing that as soon as I left my interview score would be determined!! The results are just sitting there and we need to wait another 28 days until we know.. so scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssearle Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Are the subject lines of the emails different on Decision day based on acceptance vs. waitlist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candie Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 So just to check, it looks like Ottawa usually sends out offers before 9am.. Acceptances first (have been anywhere from ~8am to 8:50am) and then waitlists? Is that about right, based on previous years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damha Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Thats what it seems like based on the previous posts!! At the interview they confirmed that they're sent in the morning. At least we won't have to wait all day to hear back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleasehelpme Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Does Ottawa send rejection emails or just bad waitlist emails - which are pretty much rejection emails? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorfresh Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Does Ottawa send rejection emails or just bad waitlist emails - which are pretty much rejection emails? They sent acceptances, good waitlists (we will contact you should a vacancy open prior to September), and bad waitlists (however, I must inform you, you are unlikely to receive an offer). No outright rejections, but the bad waitlist is pretty much a nice rejection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
