Hi,
Long story short I'm graduating this year and received a couple post interview rejections from Canadian schools.
Based on my interview performances, I need to work on my interviewing skills and likely lacked the maturity and life experiences that these programs were looking for. I'm comfortable with my stats, and likely won't be doing any more academic related stuff in my gap year (other than MAYBE taking the Canadian DAT to expand options and maybe taking a couple prereqs). I currently only have an American DAT score which limited my options of canadian schools to apply to.
Canadian schools are a bit different in that your resume doesn't matter as much to get to the interview stage (where as I hear It's very important in the states). Therefore despite getting to the interview stage, my extracurriculars are certainly weak and I'm struggling finding things to do in this gap year.
Does anyone have any suggestions/tips/advice?
Thank you!
