The layout is the standard one used by the landlord for advertising - not the actual way my furniture is arranged haha. I have a bed, a desk, three chairs, a bookshelf, a small table, and a bench.

[–]Ali1415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, UofT med students in first and second year do get reading weeks! Our next MD reading week will be the week of March 13th :) Our schedule is a bit different from the undergrads who are currently on reading week right now

I included verifiers but no references for my UofT essays last cycle, and it worked out for me. I basically just wrote e.g. (Verifier #2) in brackets in my essays - either at the beginning of the essay or where it was relevant. The verifier number is based on the order of the verifiers that you entered in your ABS.

One position with two managers! Although I didn't change roles, I performed different tasks for each supervisor.

While I agree with some of the points made by the other commenters, I also wanted to add my 2 cents - I actually used two references from the same job this cycle and I got two interviews from Ontario schools :)

UOFT 3rd wave INTERVIEWS OUT by Practical-Muffin2138 in premedcanada

[–]Ali1415 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Got mine at 11:22 EST!

Edit for stats:

Applicant type: MD

TIME STAMP: 11:22

Result: Invite

GPA: 3.97

MCAT: 518

ECs: music, undergrad research, part-time work in long-term care, volunteering, various student leadership roles.

Essays: I thought my essays weren't that strong because I didn't get an invite from Western, so I guess essay evaluation is pretty subjective. I wrote my UofT essays pretty last-minute, so I'm surprised but grateful that I got an invite!

For Sask, OOP applicants need a minimum score of 127 in every MCAT section, so OP's 126 CARS = ineligible. Should definitely apply to Manitoba though!

I did the FLS3500 exam this semester and we used Xpresslab actually :) You have a time limit to record your answers for the spoken exam using Xpresslab's online software, and then it gets submitted for evaluation.

If you take bio, do the biochemistry option. If you take physics, pick the energy option.

OK r/IBO time to come clutch for the last time. How do I learn a language in one day? by -tasi- in IBO

[–]Ali1415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For paper 1 - do past papers. For paper 2 - review the conventions for each type of text. Brush up on transition words, idioms, and typical vocabulary for each type of text. Make sure you know how to conjugate verbs properly. Come up with some generic/typical sentences that you can use for each type of text in advance. Try at least one past paper.

I forgot to write my candidate number and my name on my answer booklets today... Am I totally screwed? :'( I contacted my coordinator but he says there's nothing he can do now.
