Soltan Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Hey guys I'll be applying after my third year and I was just wondering how important my 4th year marks are (especially for Ontario med schools) as I know they're not used in the GPA calculation.

You should aim to get the highest grades you can in 4th year as well, regardless, in case you don't get in right away and have to reapply. If you do get an acceptance, you'll usually have to maintain certain marks in that year to keep your acceptance (varies by medical school). So all in all, it's better to be safe than sorry and still try as hard as you can in 4th year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obiwankenobi Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Take it from me. Interviewed and bad waitlisted in third year. I'm glad I didn't slack off with my grades! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it after you receive your offer of admission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
