View submission: What are my chances?

I'm only applying to the University of Waterloo

• *OAT**: 400TS, 380AA

• *GPA**: 3.3 (79.91%)

• *Shadowing Hours:** 61

• *Masters/PhD:** None

• *Application Submission Date:** AIF submitted September 1st.

• *Extra Curricular Activities:**

Full time work - 8 months each in two life science R&D companies. 4 months at a health software company.

Volunteering - 172 hours split between two hospitals, 32 hours doing free tutoring for grade school kids, 200 hours at a food bank, 120 hours at an annual festival I've been volunteering with for the past 6 years.

​

The low GPA is what's really worrying me. I took the CASPER last week, haven't gotten results back, but I feel like I did well.

Hi, do you have any update on your admission cycle? I also have interned as regulatory affairs intern and see if working at life science companies/biotech/medical device looks good.
