I believe its anywhere from 50-85 just from what I read on old threads! I am just hoping to make it to the interview portion becasuse that is more my strong suit! I tried really really hard on my P.S but I just always think its better to put a face to a name!

Good luck to all of us! I'm Hayley and I'm graduating from the University of British Columbia this spring :)

Hopefully we all hear from Nipissing soon regarding interviews.

Also goodluck on the CASper test! I'm taking mine on the 22nd of this month.

I hope so! I also applied to Queens and U of T in Ontario. Not sure how high my chances are for any of the schools are as I understand they prefer more mature students with lots of experience.

Thats ok! You will get in where you are destined to go :) can I ask you guys your GPA for your 10 best courses?

Not very high to be honest, I believe my average for Nipissing it's in the high 70's-low 80's. I didn't do so well in my first two and a half years of Uni :( I'm hoping my supplemental and (possible) interview can make it up.

May I ask who you asked to be your reference? I was a bit confused with what they expected for the reference letter.

I asked my supervisor who has known me for 7 years. Nipissing wanted either an academic reference or professional. I didn't really get to know my profs that well in Uni - or enough to write a detailed character assessment so I asked her! Hbu?

I think interview invites should be coming very soon! Fingers crossed!

All of my courses were half course equivalents (1 semester in length) so im pretty sure that they will be using my 20 best half course equivalents. If that's the case my gpa is about an 85% but it's hard to get an accurate calculation because every school converts differently and my school used a 4.3 gpa scale

I also used a professional reference and asked a pharmacist that I work with to write mine.

I am literally checking my email every 5 minutes for an invite to interview, I'm so anxious! Really hoping we all get one ☺️

85% is amazing I think you've got a great shot at getting in! It said that if you get the minimum 75% on your best 10 FCE they automatically consider your reference/supplemental?

And will we hear back from them sometime in the next couple weeks? It said mid-late February so not sure when that actually is :nailbiting:

The CASper test was much easier than I anticipated so do not stress over it, good luck :)
