Hi !

I'm a Montrealer and I just finished 2 years of Cegep in Health Sciences at Marianopolis so I basically have my pre-requisites for med school. However, I did not do good so I have no choice but to do undergrad. I'll be doing my UG in Civil Engineering at Concordia (it's my back up plan). I plan on attending med school after my UG in either U.S or Canada. I'll hopefully be doing my MCAT this summer. So here are my questions:

1. Will U.S Med schools look at my Cegep grades? If so, should I redo them ?
2. Should I do the MCAT since it isn't requires for Quebec Universities ?
3. Do I have a better chance in Quebec? Canada? or U.S ?

Thanks !
