talons Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I know in Canada, it doesn't matter where you do your undergrad, just that your GPA is competitive. Do American med schools care where you did your undergrad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shikimate Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 The simple answer is yes, the institution which you did your undergraduate could impact their perception on the "rigor" of your program. As to what schools are more looked upon, I think we all know more or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathvvv Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Beyond the big names like Uof T and McGill, American schools generally dont care since they dont know how good the schools are (ie they wont know the difference between ryerson and western) The simple answer is yes, the institution which you did your undergraduate could impact their perception on the "rigor" of your program.

Alberta also, and some know UBC, but thats pretty much it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talons Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Will attending Ryerson vs going to UofT hinder my chances at American med school admission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
