Hi guys,
It's March already. Schools started rolling out their results and some of us have already heard back from schools with good or bad news. I know many people here including myself suffered from anxiety and stress about this waiting game in the past couple of months. During this time, my anxiety got really bad and it kinda led to self-blaming and low self-confidence, especially after finding out the mistakes I've made on my application and my interviews (ruminating what I've should have said but didn't). I believe not all people here are going through this same experience with me, some of you might have done really well and boosted your self-confidence as a result. But for those who are experiencing same anxiety, depressive moods or self-blaming, I wanted to share an episode of a podcast that really helped me to alternate these negative thoughts into more realistic and positive ones. Some may be already familiar with this podcast but it's called "The Happiness Lab with Dr. Laurie Santos". On January 3rd they talk about the topic of self-blaming and self-compassion. Hoping everyone here can manage this anxious time in our life in a healthier way, I recommend trying listening to this on your spare time! it's only 40 minutes long
hi there
Yorkville MCP has a Facebook group it was very useful for me hearing from current students. If you fill the form expressing interest a recruiter will follow up and she is very helpful and also send me invite to monthly online seminars I think once I firmed up I wasn't applying I was kicked out of monthly seminars but they were really good psychotherapy guest speakers etc
Hello! I haven't heard from them yet. I applied to McGill last year and received a response end of March (rejection of course). Not sure when to expect an answer from McMaster. Good luck!
