I noticed that I didn't give you the breakdown of my MCAT. Its 12-10-13 (V:10)


Please, any advices/suggestions would be helpful
 
If you haven't already submitted your AMCAS, you should get it submitted tomorrow. You're behind, rolling admissions means people are already getting interview offers.

You should get interviews in Canada as well with the stats.

Apply to all mid tier and top tiers and hope for the best.

Thank you SFU! I'm at a big disadvantage in Canada because of my low course load.

Do you think I will have a decent chance at schools in US? Do you think I may have shot at University of Columbia for instance?

Thanks!

Sorry to be a jerk but it's Columbia University's college of physicians and surgeons.

I don't know your course load but it matters in the US too. Unlike CAD schools, US schools will read your application and your GPA+MCAT are great! So apply and go ahead.
