Hello;
Some facts that I have recently learned that may be of interest:
1) I just received a letter from the Assistant Dean of Medicine at UBC (regarding, primarily, special consideration status). However, a snippet of information was covered in the letter that responds to some earlier questions relating to mailing of interview invitations. The letter stated that interviews have already begun, (already known) and that invitations will continue to be sent up until the end of March.
2) I recently spoke with the Admissions Officer at Queen's regarding their MCAT cut-offs for this year (each year they freshly determine the cut-offs after performing a cursory review of the applicant pool). This is what was specified: a total score of 30 (VR + PS + BS) is required with the following minimums to be met: VR-10, PS-9, BS-9. If these scores are met, the applicant will continue through the selection process. If these scores are not met, the applicant will not be considered further. (This cut-off applies to both, graduate and undergraduate applicants.)
Good luck.
