Hurricane in Grenanda

[Guest marbledust]

I chatted this evening with a Calgary student who was at St. George's in Grenada during the recent devastating hurricane. His story was a rather harrowing one. Here's hoping that any regulars to this board attending that school are safe and okay.

<title>competitive australia application..</title>

<pagetext>I was thinking about putting in an application for medical school in Australia, but don't know whether or not my application would even be competitive..my gpa is fairly low (3.3-3.4), my mcat is ok (10/10/p/12) but I have quite a bit of relevant employment and volunteer experience...

 

Can anyone who knows about the average stats of the admitted international applicants please let me know?

<title>Which Irish schools should I apply for?</title>

<pagetext>Does anyone have any advice for comparing the Irish medical schools? I heard of Trinity first, so I was going to apply there, but then I found out about the other 3 schools, so I am not sure what to do. Is the Royal College worth the extra tuition? What are the pros/cons of each school? I have a good GPA and MCAT (but it's April 2001...how long do they consider scores valid?). What school do I have the best shot at getting into?

<title>Are there other schools like McMaster out there??</title>

<pagetext>I have not seen this question addressed before, although I may have missed it and do then apologize for the repetition. But I was wondering if there are other med schools that are similar to McMaster, NOMS, or Ottawa to a certain extent, in that they do not require MCATs and don't have a huge list of science prereqs.

 

I am certainly not against doing the MCAT and taking science courses, but I'm an older applicant, with a full time job, and so I would have to quit working and get back to school... something that's difficult to do when you have mortgage payments, etc.

 

So, do let me know if anyone is aware of such schools, in Ireland, England, the US, wherever. I've been unable to find any so far, on my individual school searches, but perhaps I'm missing some.

 

Thanks all,

T
