meilin Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Does anyone know the IP and OOP cutoffs for GPA? I viewed the statistics on their website, but it doesn't seem like they have separate sections for GPA for IP and OOP. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I viewed the statistics on their website, but it doesn't seem like they have separate sections for GPA for IP and OOP. Thanks The average GPA for IP applicants accepted on decision day last year was 3.90. I'm not sure what it was for OOP, but probably around 3.97?

tnwl Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 http://ume.med.ualberta.ca/ProspectiveLearners/MDAdmissions/AdmissionStatistics/Pages/default.aspx Average of accepted gpa IP/OP combined: 3.87' date=' for 2nd and 3rd years : 3.97[/quote'] Since the GPA of IP/OP combined is 3.87 for accepted students and that the GPA of OOP students is very high, it must mean that the GPA of IP students who are accepted is quite below 3.87, perhaps around low 3.80's. Anybody agree? We need to consider that at least 85% of the class is IP so I guess the GPA for IP students cannot be too far away from 3.87, but just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiomegaly Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 3.97 makes sense for 2nd and 3rd years since you need at least a 3.7 to apply. Remember that the 3.87 average for degree holders reflects dropping their worst year. It's not as bad as it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
