mikejames Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Do many med schools require honors Life science as opposed to just normal life science? Do they hold one over the other? I was just wondering if honours is required in order to be able to get into Ontario med schools. LS by itself is only a 3 years of undergraduate so would that narrow down my field too greatly and i should take honors life science just in case? Thx for ur replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5jy4 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Don't you need an honors degree in order to be eligible for Western? Someone correct me if I'm wrong about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejames Posted July 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 What about u of t, mac or queens med, do they need honours? Im just looking in general do ontario med skools need honours life science? Also since life science alone is 3 years is that too risky to depend on it and instead take honours which is 4 years and opens me up to more schools?

Personally I would not recommend a 3 year program - although there is not explicit requirement for a honours degree at those schools. The problem is there is the possibility (as with anyone) of not getting in one year and then you are not left with a lot of obvious options to proceed and you can't apply to Western at all.

future_doc Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 You need an honours degree or equivalent to go to Western. And this means that your bachelors degree, honours or not, will lead to a Masters Program should you wish to pursue this. So even Western does not require an honours degree.

I didn't really understand that honours requirement of Western to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When in doubt you can contact Western, but if it is a four year degree that you can got into grad school after with it is very probably safe.
