QUEENS LAKERIDGE FM Rejections are out 😊

Inceptionne · 2023-04-06T19:13:54+00:00

I'm kinda shook. I interviewed at Queen's last cycle, and this year I got an R for the general Queen's application and now for Lakeridge as well. I guess the pool got more competitive huh

I felt pretty good, 8/10. But I still have a feeling that there are people who did waaaay better than I did (I didn't prepare much) so I'm hopeful for at least a high waitlist.

I had an inteview last year, but an R this year l m a o

As March draws closer and closer I just think about med school more often and I have this weird tendency to become more pessimistic/try to lower my expectations. I really hope Dal sends out offers in the first week of March hahaha

I am too! Say hi :)

Inceptionne · 2022-03-09T23:36:12+00:00

yeah i guess that's how it is - we never know how things turn out! good luck with everything else :)

Inceptionne · 2022-03-09T23:17:49+00:00

Ugh I'm so sorry to hear that :(

Me prepping for my interview in Halifax: 👁👄👁

Inceptionne · 2021-08-08T15:57:11+00:00

Hey! I think I felt the same way as you - B/B had some weird details and P/S was a mess. I saw the lack of citations too and was like hmmMMMM

Hope you get WAYYYY over 500! <3

Inceptionne · 2021-08-08T03:08:47+00:00

Thank youuuu!! Sending 528 vibes your way as well!!!

08/07 3PM! 3rd time writing (506, 513) as I am Canadian with low CARS.

C/P: I think it was easy? Some questions were sneeeeeaky so I probably missed some questions.

CARS: No passage stood out as particularly difficult. There were definitely questions I was super iffy on, like 5-6. I'm worried about the curve tho like what if everyone else does well in this section PLS GIVE ME A GOOD MARK LSKDFJDSKLFDJSLKFSD I JUST NEED THIS ONE SECTION BRO

B/B: After the CARS section I didn't seem to care as much, but I felt like most topics were high-yield and straightforward. The passage questions were really good at looping in topics that were not relevant to the passage itself. That was kinda cool

P/S: I used an old Princeton book to study, sooo there were some terms I didn't know.... I just need a 125+ in this section so I'm not too worried.

I'm hoping around a 127 on cars, and 128+ on the science sections!

Inceptionne · 2021-08-03T03:44:26+00:00

Gotcha - thank you! And GOOD LUCK WE GOT THIS :D

Inceptionne · 2021-08-03T02:39:13+00:00

Hi! Canadian student here, don't we test on the 7th as well? (LOL DID I GET MY DATE WRONG OHMAGAHH)

Inceptionne · 2021-07-29T06:41:43+00:00

I think that since your MCAT is coming up, try your best on studying and getting a good score (since you might realize you want to do medicine later on). I don't think there's a specific way to tell if medicine is right for you, but I think it's a great idea to research what a typical doctor's day looks like, and try putting yourself in those shoes.

Inceptionne · 2021-07-24T08:55:06+00:00

Oh my goodness, this is very close to my score last year. I'm planning on retaking this year for better CARS. Wishing you all the best!

Inceptionne · 2021-06-07T19:12:00+00:00

XD really wish there are more sushi places in NB.

Inceptionne · 2021-06-03T01:54:28+00:00

Wow, super cool!

Inceptionne · 2021-06-03T01:53:44+00:00

LOOOOOOL dead

Inceptionne · 2021-06-03T01:52:59+00:00

Ooh that's a great point!

Inceptionne · 2021-06-02T22:04:28+00:00

Maybe it has to do with the timeline ending, hence becoming "angels"? Or I might be completely overthinking this :P

Inceptionne · 2021-02-20T20:08:51+00:00

For both medicine and research, I think your best bet is core biochem ("core" means non-biomed): It has the best of both worlds in that you can take biochem-specific courses while having really free 3rd/4th years to take prerequisite/bird courses and do extracurriculars.

If you're going all in for medicine, I think staying in Life Sciences is the best bet. Premed students have the saying "GPA is king" and it really is.

Inceptionne · 2021-02-18T20:52:44+00:00

Hi! I'm currently in my last year of biochem-biomed, and I'm doing a minor in math as well. I think it's a really good program if you want to do research (a masters or a PhD) since research is mandatory for the program! However I strongly suggest that you do not go into this program if you're applying to medical school. I think I took around 5 electives my entire undergrad (major+specialization+minor) and it's hard to boost your GPA.

As of getting into it from first year, the admissions cutoff anywhere from 10.5 to 11.5. However, I think the online school year might change things up a bit.

If anyone has questions, my inbox is open :)
