Worth a shot?

First year. 3.0

Second year. 3.3

Third year. 3.9

and going...

No MCAT written yet

Lots of extra curriculars

- after seeing the acceptances of people receiving 3.8+ cumulative GPAs and some still getting turned down..

- will a school that calculates a GPA using the last two years completely ignore the first two

- if I keep in 3.9+ in 4th year am I in the clear, or are the first two years going to bring me down because my cumulative GPA will still be around 3.5 regardless

Schools that look at your best two years ignore the others. UWO and Queen's are obviously great choices.... What would your cumulative be with U of Toronto's weighting formula? Study hard and do well on the MCAT so that you meet cutoffs for UWO and Queens and you have a pretty solid shot!
