I know there are about 600 applying every year and they only take 52 ppl in.

Does anyone know how many were interviewed?

They interviewed around 230 people for 56 spots.

They transferred scores from about 30 applicants too on top of the 230. So they effectively interviewed ~260.

Jeez.

I was given an interview off the waitlist, which means I'm at the bottom of the pile in terms of GPA. I honestly think each year it was fruitless of me to interview at UWO. Even if I aced the interview (literally 35/35), the best I could hope for is a waitlist.

Sigh.

Hey I'm not certain what facts you are talking about... but if it's about interview applicants, I just asked the admissions office and also I think it was posted somewhere last year? Correct me if I'm wrong?

I don't think wait-listed for interview = you have low GPA. Your GPA is really high. I know several people who got interviews with lower GPA. I don't know. This process is really mysterious.

There is someone in our class that was waitlisted for interview and waitlisted for acceptance. Don't give up

i think i'm getting a little paranoid here...im starting to replay my interview and trying to figure out how i did, lol.
so for the 7 questions, i think i answered 1 terribly because i just can't think of an example. i answered well for 1 of them. so that's that...i was really nervous!
the casual questions went fine.
grrr i need to stop worrying
