Hi all,
Is there any information available on how MD adcoms view completing prereqs during the application cycle for Canadian applicants? Most schools that I've looked at seem to simply require the prereqs be completed before matriculating at the school, but as a Canadian applicant, would that put me at a disadvantage? I have the option of cramming 2-3 courses this summer, but I feel pretty burned out at this point, and would much rather work part-time while completing prereqs September 2014-April 2015 (I've graduated already). Unfortunately, my stats are probably slightly under the average accepted Canadian applicant, so I realize I'm already fighting an uphill battle.
Any ideas? Or is this not something I should even worry about?
Thanks in advance!
