I have a question regarding prerequisite course requirement for medical school admission for non-Canadian international student. First of all let me tell you about my educational background. I have graduated from foreign university with Bachelor of Pharmacy and I have evaluated this foreign institution coursework from World Education Service (WES) and awarded US equivalency of Bachelor's degree in Pharmaceutical science. Based on this evaluation US university waived some of my credits for Pharm D and gave me Pharm D in 3 years (accelerated program) after I finished all other courses at US institution. My question is do I have all the prerequisite course work required for admission into medical school considering I have not taken any physics, biology and chemistry courses at US institution or do I have to take all these required courses from an accredited US university.

any one was/is in the same boat as I am

Thanks in advance

You have to take those courses at a US Institution.
I am not a fan of WES, they tend to give fewer credits than the ones the person deserves.👎

That's odd. Pharmacy school gave me credits for not only pre-pharmacy courses but they also gave me some credits towards Pharm. D courses and medical school makes you do all over again... 🙄
