shannn Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Hey everyone, I used to use the eznet boards (way back when), but then they disappeared, so I assumed that it was gone...and then I started browsing around, and saw this, which is great. I transferred universities after 2nd year, but during my '3rd year', because I changed programs, I could not take any courses higher than first year (because I transferred to totally different programs) My GPA is kinda screwed up, but it looks like this (I took 5 full credits each year except for 2nd) 1st year - 3.31 (all first year courses) 2nd year - 3.30 (taking 4 courses, all second year courses) 3rd year - 3.94 (all first year courses) 4th year - 3.96 (so far, taking 6 3rd year courses and 4 2nd year courses) 5th year - this is the upcoming year I hope to apply to all the med schools in Ontario (except Ottawa) but I'm not sure how they will treat my GPA. I never repeated any courses though. Will they look down on my 3rd year of university because it was all first year courses? I really could not take any higher level courses (I tried getting myself in, but they wouldn't let me because my pre-reqs did not match up, which I am certain they did), and I figured instead of taking a 2nd year English course or something like that, that I would explore other types of courses a science student wouldn't, such as microeconomics and such (which is reallly interesting) Thanks for all the help guys, Shawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futuredoc Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 If you explain what happened, you may actually have a decent shot without that fifth year at universities which look at your two best/latest years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply. So this summer, should I email admissions at the Uni's I'm applying to? I guess only Queen's and Western would be receptive then, eh?
