admission to Canadian Medical schools vs. American


Recommended Posts

hi everyone,

i was wondering if i got this right.

to get into the university of Toronto's medical school are a GPA of at least 3.0 in any discipline, two full-course equivalents (fce) in any life science and one fce in a social science, humanities or a language.

but to get into an American medical school you need biology, physics, chemistry and calculus.

 

this ma be a really stupid question but i am not sure!http://www.premed101.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif

 

please and thank you

what's a rhodes scholar
A person who's won a Rhodes Scholarship.

 

It's a highly prestigious international scholarship. I think there are about 200 in the world and only about 15 get allocated to Canadians. It's mainly awarded for academic or research excellence, but it can also be for sports or extracurriculars.

The advertised GPA is not to get into U of T, it is just to be eligible to apply. By reading through all the threads it becomes very clear that you need to be a country mile ahead of the minimum required GPA. McMaster is the best example: 3.0 GPA and MCAT VR of 6 which is far from reality for 99% of successful applicants.
