Haven't heard anything yet and from what I gathered from past years that probably is a bad thing (wait listed or rejected) but I thought I'd share my stats anyway!

GPA: 3.75

Finishing second year Health Sci and Uwaterloo

ECs: 1.5 years hospital volunteering with direct patient care and assessment, paid work at daycare with autistic children, orientation week leader, summer camp counsellor, lifeguard, children's tennis instructor, school band member and faculty student council representative.

 

Will be adding volunteer cadaver prosection and camp for children with congenital heart defects to my application after this summer!

This term was also my best in terms of grades so hopefully my GPA increases for my application next year :D

 

Congrats to everyone with an interview and good luck!
