3rdyearbiostudent Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Hi guys, I was wondering how Med schools evaluate their students in each course. Is it a pas/fail system, or honors/pass/fail? or are you assigned letter grades, like in Undergrad? If it is under a P/F system, is a pass 70%? Thanks.

xi88 Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Its pass/fail at many school (I know that Dal is), and i believe 60 is pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookus Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 Yeah I've heard from others that a 60% is considered a pass as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

123coco Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 what I don't understand is how are med student ranked if it's a P/F system? I've read a few threads of med students commenting on their class rank ...but am confused on the method ________ Marijuana Strain Green Crack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernDude Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 You're still marked in numerical grades which the school has, but your transcript only shows pass or fail depending on whether you met the cut off they've set (Usually the 60%). Some schools will use their numerical grades on file to rank you within the class, though many won't do that as it is contrary to the spirit of criterion-based evaluation.
