UofT Epi second round came out on Friday night (of the fifth week) with rejections out the same day but in the morning! So maybe health promo peeps will hear back this week!

Dips Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Yeah I agree, retracting acceptances will help create movement on the waitlist either way! All the best to you in med school! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharing the same concerns here. But from what I've heard from other grad students, they advised me to enjoy the summer since grad school is pretty busy and you might not have time for yourself (again depends on YOU as a person). So if you feel under prepared, just casually look up at course outlines, do some light reading to familiarize yourself, reach out to senior year students and maybe profs or advising committees. Anyhow, its pretty much like undergrad but one level higher in terms of difficulty. So no need to worry too much. If you made it through undergrad, you'll be fine if you keep up with your work and work smart. And yeah ALWAYS reach out to your supervisors/profs ASAP if you get stuck or feel overwhelmed, I suffered in undergrad because I was too hesitant in opening up about my struggles and my grades suffered. It was only after talking about my problems to counsellors and a close friend, was I able to lighten the mental burden and see a shift in my grades and overall wellbeing. So all the best and feel free to DM me if you need to talk at any point. cheesecakelover and minmbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So all the best and feel free to DM me if you need to talk at any point. Yes, I heard from so many people to just enjoy this time! My undergrad experience was relatively smooth and i think im building this up to be a lot in my head. Its difficult to deal with imposter syndrome and doubts however as I do not come from a public health background and have limited knowledge on R/SAS. I think your right that reaching out to my supervisors, doing some self-learning and trying out some course readings are the way to go. Tysm for this reply!!
