Thread: CHANCES for acceptance? Please help me out...

Hi,

I'm a canadian citizen interested in the program to to hope.

My gpa is quite low: 2.73
I haven't taken the MCAT yet.
However, I did really well in a lot of pre-req courses for medical school. (I had some personal problems which lowered my marks severely afterwards)

During my undergraduate program, I was a biology major.
Here are some of my UNIVERSITY marks for courses that are usually
pre-requiste for medicine in Canada/USA:

Physics 1: A-
Physics 2: A+
Calculus: A
Statistics: A-
General Chem 1: A-
General Chemistry 2: C
Anatomy: A
Physiology 1: A+
Composition English: B+
Cell Biology: C+
Biological Diversity: B
Organic Chemistry 1: D+

My cumulative GPA (on the scale that medical schools in Canada use) is
around 2.73?

What kind of MCAT score would I need for acceptance with that GPA?

Thanks for the help guys.

28. Similar stats as you and that's what I had to get in. My gpa was on the US scale though.

did you get accepted and if so into which program? i would be very surprised if you didn't. as far as i know many people with low gpa's have been accepted. the only issue is which program they put you in. 6 yr, 2nd of 6, or 4 yr program.

I think you need to retake o chem if you received a d+ .. All prerequisite courses need to be passed with a minimum grade of c- if I'm not mistaken ..
