Nvln0 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Does anyone know of any Med schools that look at the final/last year GPA? My first two years did not go very well but my third year has been a bit better. I was hoping that if I do really well in my final year of undergrad there would be a Med school that only looks at my GPA in my fourth year.

Short answer: No. There are schools that look at the last two years (Queen's), or best two years (Western, Calgary), or drop lowest courses/apply weighting formula provided you meet the requirements (Toronto, Ottawa, Manitoba). As far as I know, there are no schools that only look at the last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racecargirl Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 if you have one year at 3.7 or higher, you have a shot at western. that is only if you are continuing your studies though. so your 3rd year would have to be a 3.7 and your acceptance if you get it would be contingent upon you getting at least 3.7 in your forth year. i would suggest taking an extra year of undergrad to boost your gpa. or a second undergrad degree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phear8 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Calgary drops lowest year ONLY if you have completed your degree Not true for this year. Calgary drops your lowest year IF you have 3 years of full-time study. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
