Yes I did that too. I think it depends on how many As etc you have . If you have more A+ and As your percentage cGPA will be higher and if you also don't have Cs and Ds. I'm assuming you mostly have As with a few Bs
I am incredibly nervous. I felt super good right after the MMI, but after hearing from people on here that they had better cGPAs and PCAT scores and still didn't make it... I'm not doing that well. On my interview day, one of the student volunteers told me that usually they get about 700-800 applications but due to the changes to pre-requisite courses this year, they only received about 500-600. The student also said they usually cut it down to about 500 interviews to get to an ~50% acceptance from interview. I'm REALLY hoping I make it because of these things.
I wrote such a massive essay for my sample, I'm not really sure how I got the 4.0Your PCAT scores are great, and I would guess you're on the higher end of applicants based on cGPA of past accepted students. That's just based on guesswork from looking at SDN, but I would be surprised if you didn't get in, especially given your familiarity with some of the MMI stations.
I honestly don't know, I just wrote a lot of points for my topic and tried to explain my thinking for each and every point. I also tried to provide one or two pieces of evidence for each point/main idea. That's all! I've said this before, I actually wrote so much that I'm not sure how I got a 4.0, I thought it might be interpreted as incoherent. But perhaps the way I organised my response prevented that! I have no clue.
I'm right there with you!! Even though I know the "secret website" won't work until early on Friday morning, I still compulsively check it every few hours... lol
InshAllah... honestly so stressed out. Just hoping for the best. I literally keep checking every 10 mins
Got waitlisted
Yeah I did, and personally, I'm gonna go with Waterloo. I just find the coop a lot more appealing for getting into the workplace and I really dug the vibe I got at the interview.
Last year the results were up at around 12pm.
LOL I was also shocked when I realized you're Muslim so I had to let you know you're not alone
Don't worry too much!!! In the end if it's meant to be it's meant to be, and if it doesn't work out then it's all for the best and you'll find some new opportunities elsewhere! Plus there's always next year, I'm a repeating applicant lmao it's not the end of the world!
I'm graduating next week lol
3rd year at York. It's my first time applying so I really don't know what to expect but I hope I get in cause I really don't wanna be stuck at York anymore
Thank you for the reassurance!
I'm on the same boat - first time applicant and am desperately trying to escape my uni! I know there are other options if I don't get in, but I really would like to leave
I just finished 2nd year lol. I was really surprised when I found out there weren't that many 2nd year applicants
No need to keep checking every 10!
SDN will explode when the decision is out and you'll know hahaNo need to keep checking every 10!
Oh true you're right... Okay let's just keep busy till 12 and then check lolol can't get too hyped
Yeah last year it came out at 12 on the link but not until later on the official website.
Yes, I've been reading through this year's and last year's threads, and there have been people who have found this pattern to be consistent since 2013. They seem to release the results a week before the actual tentative date posted online. It's always like this - the first Friday of June is the due date for submitting transcripts, and a week after that is when decisions are available online through the secret link. They're always a couple of days after uWaterloo.
do u guys know if the secret link is reliable??
It seems to be. It's just like the "secret link" for the interview invitations. It's like this - the link is active, but there's no direct way to see it from the applicant website. They remove our access to the link from the "decisions" tab while they upload documents and letters. But if you have the link saved and enter it to try and view your decisions tab, you'll see it before it's made visible to us applicants.
