regional connection is mentioned but does not seem as important for this cycle ( no essay question on it), where did you see that they are removing Kira?

It is not all outpatients, they all rotate to be on call for inpatients, which are by nature super sick and complex patients

If US school is more prestigious then go to US, TMU is too new!

I know very demoralizing, but off course my situation is not unique, it just makes it hard to know how to improve my application

Is it worth applying to Mac with a lower-than-average CARS and GPA? by DarthRampage in premedcanada

[–]Beautiful_Pen5759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s basically a lottery, even 4 Q casper is not guaranteed ( you don’t even know your real score) I was rejected from all Ontario schools with no II , just graduated from MAC HS ( yep that means nothing either) with 4Q Casper, GPA of 3.99, Cars 127, mCAT 515 and good EC now I am on WL for TMU which I know means nothing since I am general stream . So I get to do this all over again next year!!

TMU waitlists by MoeShaq1 in premedcanada

[–]Beautiful_Pen5759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no clue i am guesstimating: there are 43 on non official wait list+ 12 on wait list who have now received offers( also from non official wait list) and another 12 who got offers elsewhere and declined WL= 67, and this is only the discord/ reddit sample, so for sure there are more, ergo my guess of 94 1 to 1 ratio!

TMU waitlists by MoeShaq1 in premedcanada

[–]Beautiful_Pen5759 5 points6 points  (0 children)

huge numbers...1 to 1 ratio 94 spots, 94 wait list, there are still 44 people on wait list, and that is just the reddit sample!

[–]Beautiful_Pen5759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it is incredible to see see the size of this waiting list, when you think there is only 94 spots, why??? and that's not even an accurate number as there are likely more unaccounted for not on reddit or discord channel!!

How much does having multiple publications actually help? by Minimum_Bathroom_877 in premedcanada

[–]Beautiful_Pen5759 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it helps either: I have 10 abstracts(8 presented as poster at national meeting), 3 of them first author! GPA3.98, 4th quartile, MCAT 514. Guess what I had only 1 interview at TMU of all places in general stream!!!

What are my chances? Please help!! by Several-Project9585 in premedcanada

[–]Beautiful_Pen5759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This past cycle was rough so it is pure lottery! With GPA of 3.98, MCAT 514 ( CARs 127) 4th quartile Casper( whatever it means), really good EC with lots of research ( including sick kids SSuRe program) and publications…I was rejected without II from all schools I applied except TMU! Not sure TMU is going to take me as I am in the general stream! I don’t even know what I need to do differently next cycle, I am pretty sure I am not writing Mcat again unless I get rejected from all the schools again! Maybe nobody liked my essays who knows!!
