Oop Chances

Hello,

 

If I have a 3.91 on the Mgill GPA scale as an OOP, is it worth a shot to apply if my ECs are pretty good?

The average invited for interviews is around 3.95. Last year, there were 46 invites out of 715 applicants, so it's extremely competitive, but I still think with a 3.91 it's worth a shot.

Do you know how a pre-interview score is generated? How much is based on GPA/ EC's etc?

3.9+ is definitely worth a shot imo, especially if you say you have pretty good ECs.

 

I don't think there's a cutoff per se but here are some more stats (this year's) https://www.mcgill.ca/medadmissions/applying/after-youve-applied/applicantstats2017 There's a lot of info on the McGill website regarding requirements, etc.

Someone got an interview this year with a 3.84 its in one of the threads. I'd say 3.8+ is worth a shot.

I am OOP as well, what would you say my chances are with a 3.99 but average to below average ECs?

 

(My main ECs are: 2 pubs (2nd author, 3rd author), 3 club exec roles (did them for a year each, not at the same time), Big brother & sisters type of program (3.5 years), foodbank volunteer (150ish hours over like 6 years), volunteering with a stroke patient (150ish hours over 5 years), then smaller time commitment things like tutoring, shadowing, sports (not at any competitive level or anything). I had a total of 24 spots filled on my OMSAS ABS sketch.) --> Would also really appreciate it if someone could comment on how my ECs compare to the average successful applicant's ECs...

 

I am currently taking physics specifically for McGill so would greatly appreciate some input on my chances.

Thats below average ECs whattttttttt???...

If you have pubs, it's definitely not below average imo haha

Terrible ECs, do you even want to be a doctor?

 

Not sure if this is some humble brag or trolling but your ECs are above average.
