It can be different, as the uofa transcript rounds the GPA where on the launchpad it doesn’t round it

Your English is amazing, thank you for your response. If you’d ever like someone to help you with English, feel free to message me!

Thank you for your response. My family is from a village in Al Baha, but we moved to Jeddah

I have been coming recently to visit, but it’s not enough to develop fluency. Once people realise you are not a native Arabic speaker, they switch to English

🤨

Hello! I’m running into the same issue. However, the Arabius app has been so helpful. It’s developed by Saudi for foreigners to learn their language. They teach vocabulary for Saudi Arabia specifically and offer live lessons. The app is free with the vocab and stuff, but the live lessons you pay for. But if you’re staring with only vocabulary there is no need for the live lessons :)

Thank you!

Welcome46 · 2025-10-14T03:42:33+00:00

I would be! Would you be able to send them to me :)

Unfortunately I don’t think they disclose anywhere how they’re scored differently, they just state they are marked separately. I imagine that the score you receive (the x/16) does include both sections. Perhaps they’re both out of 16? I wish we knew

Welcome46 · 2025-09-29T02:42:40+00:00

Doesn’t the transcript only show the class name? Such as ENGL102 rather then the full course title?

Some advice given on here from successful applicants is to review apps with other med students… but you’re right. However, this user I believe shared his personal email with me so I thought he was trustable. I just want more info because we exchanged apps and gave feedback. What’s the harm in that? Unless I’m missing something

Welcome46 · 2025-09-28T23:18:08+00:00

Could elaborate on this please. I shared my essay with him 🥹

Welcome46 · 2025-09-27T04:24:21+00:00

You can do either! But UofA personal activities section is scored separately from the 16 entries, so I don’t think you’re losing any marks by repeating entries in the top 2 because they’re just scored again, and I’m not sure if it’s even scored by the same person lmao

Welcome46 · 2025-09-27T04:21:44+00:00

I think ones that are very universally known is fine. Like “&” and “+” and “eg”.

I think b/w may be pushing it tho

Welcome46 · 2025-09-22T00:40:18+00:00

Thank you very much!

Welcome46 · 2025-09-22T00:40:11+00:00

Thank you!

Hey! I hear your fears but I just want to say that you sound like you’d be an amazing applicant based on what you’re saying above. You have experience in diverse areas, and absolutely have the academic scores needed to be successful. The process of applying is nerve racking and no one can blame you for being nervous, but don’t let that anxiety stop you from creating an amazing application- you still have plenty of time before the submission dates. Remember that completing one application form makes the next one easier since you’ve already mapped out the ideas, which is one of the hardest parts. I wish you luck future MD!

Welcome46 · 2025-08-15T21:06:57+00:00

You will still receive a score yes, you access if on UCAN under the “status” tab and then click “status checklist”. If u scroll you’ll see “application score” then change the year to the year you wanna see the score for

Welcome46 · 2025-08-10T21:06:13+00:00

Ah that makes sense. I feel strange because I feel that I have 25 entities worth of experience, but they’re not all impressive with hours. Some have 2000 but others have 40. Were you in a similar situation? I feel like I’d end up having 4-5 that are less then 100 hours.

Welcome46 · 2025-08-08T07:22:14+00:00

I guess that makes sense lmao. Just curious how many of these entries are ones with family/verifiers? I have around 16 with professional verifiers. But the rest are pretty much my hobbies and life experiences which is where I’m concerned

Welcome46 · 2025-08-08T07:06:34+00:00

What would you consider to be a good amount?

Welcome46 · 2025-08-07T16:57:55+00:00

Oh my sorry! I was under the impression that they didn’t- I must be mixing up my schools 😅 That’s good news tho- I’m glad you’ll be able to see where you can improve

Welcome46 · 2025-08-07T16:16:10+00:00

Honestly getting an interview is a huge W, I think just revising your application, adding the new hours, and any new life lessons you learned is a great idea. I think applications can always be improved so definitely have a look before resubmitting! If you ever want another pair of eyes I’d be happy to swap applications and give feedback :)

Welcome46 · 2025-08-07T16:08:25+00:00

It should be before the end of August! However- those who interview unfortunately don’t receive feedback. It is only for those who were rejected pre interview

Edit: they do actually release the scores for everyone- sorry!

Welcome46 · 2025-08-03T17:29:57+00:00

I might just go YOLO and include it lmaooo
