trymeover Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 Exams are around and people keep blurting out 'omg, i'm gonna fail'. I doubt any of them are going to fail; maybe they'll get a D or something. But that made me wonder... Has anyone ever failed a course in undergrad and got into medschool? I'm thinking, only people with 2nd undergrads might've gotten away with that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w8kg6 Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 I've got a few C's on my transcript, and they seriously impeded my ability to be accepted. I think an F would put a year directly in the toilet, and since a lot of schools look at all courses, it would make things tough. Also, even the schools that look at conditional GPAs often consider your best 2 consecutive years (Dal, Queens I think), so if you got an F in your second year and were trying to apply in 4th year... good luck, because you're screwed both ways.

Failing a course, or even doing poorly in 1 course is not the end of the world. Toronto lets you drop a course each year from your GPA, Western takes the best 2 years, and Queen's takes your most recent 2 years. Just make sure you limit the poor mark to 1 course / year MAX!
