I graduated with a B.Sc. with a 3.56 GPA, I've done the MCAT twice and both times got 33 (33R first time with 13-10-10 in August 2012 and again in October 2014 with 11-9-13). Volunteering-wise I've volunteered at a street festival to raise money for epilepsy research, at a clinic at a children's hospital in my city for one year, did 2 research undergraduate projects (presented at a symposium for faculty for one of them), and went abroad to Latin America for medical volunteering at a clinic.
I tried applying to American schools 2 years ago in 2012 and I got shot down because I think I applied too late (my MCAT score came out in September) and things are really competitive because I am a Canadian and only a few American schools accept Canadians.
So, this year, I am applying to both INTO UK St. George's in London and for one Irish School via the Atlantic Bridge program.
Between these two, I was wondering if you guys can do a breakdown as to the pros and cons and which would be better in the long run? Also, do I have a shot at either of these programs with my stats and resume?
Thanks.
