hahaha! Cheers! @slpslpslpbc

The countdown is on - I'm SO glad we'll have a response by the end of this week! Something that I found helpful was creating a chart so that when I get the news, I immediately have action steps in place to deal with: the good news, the ok news and even the bad news. Thought I would share it so you can create one of your own to help you deal with the difficult waiting period! And don't forget to put "celebrate" under what to do immediately if you're accepted! ?

The dates are on the website (Feb 23rd or 24th) and if people are offered an interview, they have to accept the offer by Feb 26th, then the interviews will be held March 3rd and 4th. Info @ the top of the page here http://srs-mcmaster.ca/slp-admissions/

In general, how are people feeling about the new McMaster program? Does the MMI process appeal to you? How would you rank McMaster in your choices of universities?

Agreed @princesst! I don't want to start preparing too much incase I don't even get an interview. ? Just 1 more week to wait! Some of the preparation that I have been doing is reading articles and watching some YouTube videos although a lot of them have to do with medical school interviews. I also went to a talk by the head of the McMaster SLP program and she said 2 things that might be helpful: 1) Before ORPAS released the applicant information to them, they had no clue how many applicants they were going to get - they can put a suggested GPA out there but it's hard to know how many people will apply and where the "cut-off" will be 2) They don't want to provide TOO much information about the MMIs and they don't even want you to spend too much time "preparing" because they want you to be as close to your true self as you can be. Hope this helps a bit but we'll find out on Feb 23rd/24th!
