Did anyone get accepted last year from 2nd or 3rd quartiles?

They made it to the second quartile last year

[ChromaticScale]

Waitlisted 3rd quartile, OOP. I'm guessing that's basically equivalent to a rejection? Doesn't look like the waitlist has gone below 2nd quartile

[Metoprolol]

Result - Rejection (time stamp: midnight)

GPA - 90-ish

MCAT - 504

Location - IP

Interview - I felt okay about 4 stations but my performance on the other 2 was very poor.

I didn’t think I’d get rejected. I was hoping to be waitlisted at the least.

[frostyfeet]

Result - Admitted

GPA - 92%

MCAT - 517

Location - IP

Interview - I felt fine coming out of it, and slowly started to doubt myself more as time went on.

Result: rejected

Interview: i think it was ok but i do not know

Not surprised but still upset!

 

i wonder if i should re-apply given my age! i have heard usask does not like re-applicants. Any feedback would be appreciated!

Not true. If medicine is a true life calling, def re-apply.

Thanks for letting me know! I thought reapplication had impact! 

I have applied in 2017, 2018 and 2019 and rejected post-interview! I even finished my law degree during the application time, which lowered my GPA, so it is hard to stay motivated. Its like I am stuck on my back up career! Cannot even get in under DSAAP

They’ve also removed the 5 year application limit. So reapply!

Does anyone know if a Facebook group has been created or not for the incoming class?

I would not wait, you are taking a yearish off by waiting for the next year's interview anyways, they removed that 5 year limit. So you may apply as much as possible as long as your mcat does not expire and hold sask residency.

For anyone that was accepted, join the Facebook group for the class of 2026! https://www.facebook.com/groups/396336355731528/?ref=share

[MD867]

Result: Accepted! (1st time applicant) 

GPA: 90+

MCAT: 500

Location: IP

Interview: Felt really good about the interview! Maybe 1-2 stations weren't amazing but was able to make connections with the interviewers.

Didn't think I would post in one of these, but just wanted to share with others with low MCAT scores to show that it is possible!

Also, I'm looking for a place to move into, so if anyone has an apartment or is looking for a roommate in Saskatoon let me know

Congrats on being accepted
 

What is the deadline to accept your offer if you don’t mind me asking?

Deadline for the initial acceptances is the 20th!

The facebook group is only at 62 members one day before the deadline so there should be a good number of waitlist spots
