One year MSc

[nicks2]

Is there any disadvantages of doing a one year Clinical MSc compared to a two year MSc if I'm planning to apply to med school? Do med schools accept 1 year Clinical MSc?

Why not write off to the admissions of one med school you would like to apply to and ask the question directly. I would expect that within 72 hours you will receive a direct reply to your question. Perhaps you should give them more information about the degree you are considering, from which university, etc.

Do you know what's the email address for Queen's and U of T that I can inquire about the 1 year Clinical MSc?

Find their admissions office's e-mail on their websites.

I can't seem to find the email address on their website. There's only a street address under "contact".

I think it depends on what you're trying to get out of your MSc... If you're looking for research/publications etc. then chances are the 1 year clinical MSc isn't going to do it for you... However, if its clinical experience, then go for it... Althought if it is a course based MSc, then they may look at your marks in more detail.

 

I don't think there is any 'disadvantage' to doing one MSc over another.

Ok I have to ask, what 1 year clinical MSc are you talking about?

 

It's some program at UWO.
