md-equation Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Hey Guys I know it's been a while since i posted here, but I have a quick question towards courses. I'm interested in taking this one course at U.T.M, but i'm not quite sure how med school will look at it. I took this course last year, but due to a death in my family, I was forced to WDR out of that course. Now I'm looking into taking that course again, however i'm unsure how med schools will look at this. Will be counted towards my GPA calculation? I really enjoyed that course, and even though now it is taught by a different professor, i'd like to take it again and actually get the credit. Thanks for your help.

future_doc Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 I think it will be counted. Email adcoms of U/T to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
md-equation Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 I think it will be counted. Email adcoms of U/T to confirm. I'm looking at Western or Queens. I read at western they will not count it if its a repeated course. However, this course was WDR and i obtained no mark in it. For those that maybe unfamiliar with the WDR at U/T, You must petition for it and get it approved by the university. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astrogirl Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 That's a lot different than repeating a course because you failed it, so I would guess that they'd count it. But only they can tell you for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
md-equation Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 did you petition for it? I think you have a legitimate excuse. Yes its was petitioned and approved by the university.
