mmp Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 Hello, I have completed my undergraduate degrees in Biology and Nursing from a university outside of Canada. I have written my undergrad thesis, worked as an RN back home, and was very involved in nursing education/quality assurance in the hospital where I worked. My grades are pretty decent, but when I had my transcripts evaluated by WES, they indicated that my GPA is only 3.33. I am an immigrant in my late 20's, did entry-level jobs, and am now close to being a Registered Nurse here in Alberta. I did a year of volunteering. I took the MCAT (I wish I took it after my Biology degree when I took the prereqs! It is quite a challenge to write it seven years after my prereqs). I am applying to UBC. I am thinking of pursuing master's degree in nursing to improve my GPA, just in case I have to reapply. Is there anyone here who is in a similar situation, or anyone from UBC who can give me some advice? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

bloh Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 As far as I know, you have to go back to school in Canada because your undergraduate degrees will not be considered (unless you did your schooling in the States). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
