How will med school admissions feel about getting b's in graduate school? I realized it is much harder than undergrad... do they take that into consideration?
 
For most graduate courses, the classes are actually easier than their undergraduate equivalents. As far as getting a B goes, no one on the admissions committee is going to drop you because of a B versus an A. I think that they are happier to see that you are taking advanced course work.

I got half A's and half B's and was also working sometimes two jobs. Only so much I could do.

What school did you attend that grad school courses were easier than undergrad?

Not at the grad. school I went to; If you got a B, you were doing well. It's tough to generalize. I thinks adcoms look for many things. The application process is nowhere near as formulaic as we try to make it.
