Sounds pretty good to me (I wish I had her grades!!!). I think that the best way to find out is to send in your application to Gardner. To me, it seems that everything is in order. Assuming that you meet all the requirements except for the ORGO, then they would admit her as a CONDITONAL acceptance (until her completion of that class). TA-DA. Good Luck, and fill out the application already!

With grades like that I would just write the MCAT and go to the US school...or Canadian..

I thought the minimal requirement for SABA was a bachelors degree? :?:

I would say ...go ahead and apply...may be Saba will take the BSc degree requirement lightly for the applicant with that sort of a GPA.

Call Gardner and ask.

Best of Luck!

Before the "just apply and find out" enthusiasm gets out of contol here:

What is her science GPA? Saba asks for this on the application.
Also, what about clinical experiences?
Each applicant is looked at on an individual basis. I remember talking to a person not too long ago who was rejected with a 3.8 cumulative.

But definitely apply to a US med school first, even a DO school. Your path will be much smoother, and you will have more opportunities and spend less $$$ if you attend a US school.
God Bless!

High Gpa doesn't imply High Mcat score or vice versa,

MY example,

undergrad

science 2.84
nonscience - 2.96


Mcat - 12V - 13P - 13B - M

if your fiance needs tips preparing for it let me know,

I'm actually teaching a class for the MCAT before I head to Saba in may

don't need a Bachelors to get in - you can actually get one here while you work on your MD
