danielolivetree Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hello All, So I'm in my 3rd year of 4 and would like to get into med in Canada but am realistic that I may be rejected first time. I'm not really sure whether I'd want to pursue a master's or pursue work after my undergraduate. If I were to choose to work and want to apply in the years following graduation from my UG, does anyone know whether there are any rules regarding how recently you have to have taken your UG, in terms of counting your GPA, or have been in full time education such as a master's for example? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfly_ Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 I've never heard of any age/"degree age" limits in applying. I have classmates over 35 years old and I've heard of people entering med school in their 40s. I'm pretty sure they graduated in the in late 2000s and they got in just fine.

Meridian Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 Note your MCAT results are only good for about 3 years (school dependent). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's for American schools. In Canada, I believe that most schools consider an MCAT score for five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
