justletmein Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 cookie cutter ECs. very average GPA for mcgill. if you can rock the mcat, you may have a chance. just realize that every single person in the physiology program is applying to med, whether they admit it or not, so you need to make yourself stand out. oh and 2 other things: swimming in high school should not go on your med school app unless you're still doing competition... and you didnt skip first year, you went to cegep like every other quebec resident.

future_doc Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 In my view, MCAT not required and I would put in swimming anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justletmein Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 In my view, MCAT not required and I would put in swimming anyhow. right, sorry i forgot the mcat is no longer required. even more reason to boost that GPA. 3.65 is good, but not when you're competing against mostly 3.8+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
future_doc Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 McGill is a strange animal, indeed. For IP, he is in the ballpark together with well written submissions, strong references and good ECs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
