Welcome to Queen's Medicine!
Is it fine to join the group if you haven't made the decision of attending Queen's yet? And then remove yourself if you end up deciding on another school?

No you should only join if you're officially accepting Queen's (that's my highly uninformed opinion, but maybe TOK can confirm).
>_> What if you have questions before you make your decision? It's no problem though I'm sure I can find what I need on this site.

hahaha, I've done the same thing a few times. Accepting on OMSAS was even less reassuring, it just says that they reviewed the change or something when you submit your firm acceptance. At least SOLUS confirms you've accepted your offer.

From our class president: Hey 2016s!
Just a friendly reminder that we've moved the "Queen's vs. ______" discussions from the main newsfeed to the facebook docs section of this facebook group. The primary purpose of this group is to help you guys get acquainted with Queen's Medicine and answer any questions you might have about getting ready to join us in the fall. So while we don't want to leave our friends still in the decision-making stage hanging, we also don't want to take the focus away from the Queen's Class of 2016. We hope that this is a helpful and inclusive compromise. We encourage anyone still deciding to seek out as many information sources as possible, and consider all biases when doing so (such as every member of our class being hopelessly in love with our medical school). If you'd like to receive input from us about a school not already listed, please message Josie Xu, and we will do what we can to share our experiences with you (we do have our final exams this week). For further follow up, please contact 2015s individually.
For those who are already committed - get ready for the time of your life! We can't wait to welcome you in August.

Approximately how many people in this group are upper years? It seems like a super huge group!
