Hi maserati dont let your interview get you down. I know many people that said their interview went bad but they got in. So hang in there. I'm assuming you applied through the french stream, right?

I'm from Brampton.

I can understand your concerns about saying your going to saba medical school, but I dont think you should worry about where you go. In an ideal world, yes, you want to get into a school at home, but there is nothing wrong with going to SABA because it is a great school ( from the posts ive read). If at the end of the day your back in Canada practicing then you should not have any concerns. That I know is a big IF. As for the stigma attached with going to a foreign medical school, well thats something you should overlook/ignore because once you start practicing no one is going to ask you where you studied.

Additionally, I wanted to confirm with someone how I should covert my GPA. These are the numbers I have been using.

A+= 4
A=4
B+= 3.5
B-3.0
C+= ??? Didnt have a reason to look into what a C+ was lol, but that could change as I'm finishg up O. Chem.

Not quite. There's two systems...

System 1:
4.00 A
4.00 A
3.66 A-
3.33 B+
3.00 B
2.66 B-
2.33 C+
2.00 C
1.66 C-
1.33 D+
1.00 D
0.66 D-
0.00 F

System 2:
4.00 A
3.50 AB
3.00 B
2.50 BC
2.00 C
1.50 CD
1.00 D
0.00 F

I think the US university systems usually go with system 1. Not sure about the caribbeans.

Thanks for your input guys. I'll just email SABA and ask them.

The most logical statement in this thread

I was referring to the post in the interview thread where Articulate describes their interview questions:

4. September is full right now, would you love to continue the interview for the January class?
me - Yes. no problem.

5. When are you graduating?
me- this April.

6. In that case, would you be pleased to come for the may class
me - hmmmmm. I could.

i think they said that only because they don't have enough students for may08 and they were desperately trying to fill it up

Could you post back the response from the office?
Thanks!

i heard back from admissions this morning that they are still accepting applications for september. kind of shady then that there's no possibility to defer...
