Question about my marks. I didn't do well in my first 2 years of university and I got B's, C's and one D but after those 2 years I managed to change up my habits and got all A's. Problem is those first 2 years have all my pre-req courses in there.
My science-GPA is around 3.1 and my overal-gpa is 3.45. cDAT scores are AA 22, PAT 23, TS 22. Do you think schools will look at my application unfavorably due to my low pre-req marks, even though my gpa increases after those 2 years with me being on the dean's list now? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Applying to these schools a good idea?

Do you have any shadowing or ECs?

Over 200 hours of shadowing, Coach u-19 basketball team, have my own organization to set up medical projects internationally, over 1000 hours of hospital and health related volunteer experience. In terms of shadowing, LOR's and extra-curricular my profile is really competitive. I'm just worried about my pre-req marks.

Your gpa is not competitive for an OOS applicant. If that's what you are trying to ask.

science or overall gpa?

Being a Canadian applicant you ideally want it your SGPA to be around a 3.4 at least

science or overall gpa?

Both. Everything else looks great, but being out of country, your gpa is more scrutinized.
