darkchaos Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Hello. I am currently a third year at UofT. Looking around this forum, I found that if I do want to apply to an american medical school, I need a year of english. I am a science student that does not do a lot of english. I took ENG215 (Canadian Short Stories) and ENG237 (spring session) for my english. I am not all that confident I can achieve a great grade however, so I was wondering if I could take these two english courses as credit/noncredit. Would this still work for american medical schools or would it not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkchaos Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Thanks for the reply. How do I contact individual schools though? Sorry for the simple question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slashsev Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 contact amcas, or aacomas they might give a better response as opposed to contacting a million for schools, contact admissions http://www.medschool.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would this still work for american medical schools or would it not? Most schools frown upon pass/fail for required courses (while some require a mark), but some don't have it noted anywhere. Best bet would be to contact the schools you want to apply to directly. Also just a quick note, remember to request Pass/Fail before you start the course at UofT. You can't chose this option once the course has started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkchaos Posted September 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 An enormous thank you to you guys. UofT has put into placement this year were on rosi you can select a cr/ncr option which can be changed up until the drop date. After that date, the option cannot be changed. However just one more question. If I happen to select the cr/ncr option and pass the course however this causes a problem with american medical schools, can I take a year of english at ryerson to satisfy it, and would it be factored into the gpa that I got at UofT or not? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
