Grades for Pre-medical programs

[SysBio]

I am considering applying to an overseas Pre-medical program, that I think is actually geared towards high-school graduates (people just starting undergrad)

How do you think they will weigh high-school grades and undergrad grades?

Thanks

😕 Why would you go to a six year program geared for high school graduates when there are plenty of four year programs (overseas, too) for people who have finished undergrad? Is it because of fear of the MCAT?

IMG is going to suck if you're looking for an American residency.

I have a really bad undergrad GPA

I think that I would have to do post-bacc/SMP just to get around that anyway...so 2 extra years as part of a 6-year program does not sound too bad

Thats why I am also hoping that they will consider my high-school marks strongly too

Oh ok. It might be something to be concerned about if they find out about your undergrad grades, though.
