newgirl Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Don't a lot of upper year students join the group? And some people join multiple groups (I know of at least 1 person who had multiple offers and is in multiple FB groups). I don't think the FB group is a good indication Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premed4972 Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Plus, 14 people (including the administrators) joined before Tuesday????... So 70 as of now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorfresh Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Class of 2019 Uof Ottawa medical students Fb group. https://www.facebook...39600486354620/. You can only add yourself to that group if you have been offered admission and have accepted it. Those numbers are not accurate at all. You don't have to accept the offer from Ottawa to join. You just have to ask to join. Few points about the facebook group: 1. There are about 20 members that are upper year medical students from Ottawa - I know because about 20 of them were added to the group on Sunday before the offers were even released. 2. You can be in that group to ask the upper years questions and i know a few people did not accept the Ottawa offer last year and didn't bother removing themselves from the list. 3. Some people who accept don't join the group So that group is not a good estimate at all of how many accepted or rejected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamcometrue Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Not too much was said about the waitlist, just that they do not tell us our position and will call us should a spot open up. Chantal mentioned that the class is mostly finished by June, but people could still be called into august. Are you in the english stream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
