Hi, I am currently a student studying at a canadian university. Heres my situation: 1st year GPA: 2.86 (due to my mother getting diagnosed with cancer and passing away after couple of years) 2nd year GPA: 3.34 3rs year GPA: 3.51 This year i am around 3.55 as well. I will not have my degree completed by end of this year (100 out of 120 credits). i had to get a job to pay for my expenses. My overall GPA:3.26 My science GPA:3.33 I volunteer at a hospital, and I also volunteer at a preschool for children with special needs. I have manage to find a american DO working here. I will probably get a reference letter from him. I am writing MCAT in april 2001. I am confident that I will get around 27. I am planning on applying to western university of health sciences for OSTEOPATHY MEDICINE. what are my chances? Please someone help me. They do accept canadian students
Hi sandar, I have a very similar profile as you - slightly higher overall GPA, slightly lower science GPA and had an MCAT of 27. I was interviewed at Western U in October and accepted 3 weeks later. So, your chances seem pretty good!!! (I too had a slump in my grades during my sophomore year - so don't worry) Good Luck!
