Guest Monica411 Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Hi Ian, I was just curious if there was a particular reason why the Quebec medical schools were not included on this board? I find the discussions here very interesting and helpful for the most part, but I feel that it's a slight disservice to exclude the french schools. Myself, I dropped french after grade 9 (didn't like my french teacher), however I have become increasingly interested in knowing the perspective of french-canadians wrt to med school admission. No offense intended, again it's a great board, but with everything else there is always room for improvement. best regards, monica411 (not my real name ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IronLord Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Hi Monica, I got accepeted into University of Sherbrooke, and was asking myself exactly the same question. I emailed Ian Wong about it, and I hope I get an answer soon. Peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Wong Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Hi all, There's a couple reasons why I haven't included the French med schools here. The first is that I don't think the traffic has ever warranted it, as there have been few to no questions in the Premed General Discussion forum regarding the Quebec med schools. More importantly however, is the fact that I'm not comfortable setting up a forum where the majority of the messages will be in a language that I don't read well. Given the potential for either legally or morally dubious posts that could harm this website, I think it very important that I have the ability to read and access all messages on this forum. Unfortunately, French isn't a strong suit of mine, and for that reason I feel very uneasy about opening up a section for the Quebec med schools. I think an alternate solution would be for someone else to create a discussion forum focussed on the Quebec medical schools and their admissions process, and I'd be happy to link this website to that one.
