DentHope2021 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Anyone receive McGill DMD interview invites? If so, what were your stats? I'm curious to know what GPA they were looking for as an OOP and IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AncientDentist Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Sorry, what do you mean by letter of intent? Do you mean personal statement? Oops yeah that's what they're called. Those three questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DentHope2021 Posted January 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Probably someone who spent more than one day doing his letter of intent lol 70% of the weighting is GPA and only 30% is personal statement and CV. I'm sure your CV was fine (it can be done in a day) but to not get an interview with a 3.95 which is worth more than the majority of the application weighting is crazy imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therepublic Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 I got waitlisted ... do you think the WL will ever move? I just can't imagine anyone would reject their interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MapleDent Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Rejected OOP 4.0 GPA Over 500 hours of overseas humanitarian volunteering 2nd time rejected without interview... Not sure what they are looking for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oshaku Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 I got waitlisted last year for med. everyone I saw on this forum who was waitlisted got an interview eventually. Most of us interviewed later in the year with the med-p/dent-p group. I imagine it's the same for dent since we do our interviews together (and have class together.....)

But, I don't hope for much. Last year, I was waitlisted by McGill Dentistry also and it never went anywhere. I am just praying it will be better this year.

DedicatedDent Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Invited for an interview OOP - GPA: 3.93 Didn't think my CV/statement would be strong enough seeing how competitive it's been in the past... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AncientDentist Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Interesting... It seems perhaps they don't weight GPA as much as they claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exergy Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Invited to interview. IP- GPA: 3.80. Guess my CV was better than I thought. But was also refused for med so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DentHope2021 Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 According to the email, OOP average cGPA was 3.90 so CV consideration comes into play after 3.90 significantly. I'm guessing whoever has the most contribution to the community, extensive research publications and scholarships/awards get an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStakesareHigh Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 What were your stats, if you don't mind me asking? 3.85 cGPA with an upwards trend. CV was fairly standard considering some posts on here. Bilingualism might have helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
