A bunch of random questions:
Do med schools look at all marks--i.e. your entire uni 'experience?' Do they cut your lowest year? Do they see marks for individual courses, or just a cumulative GPA? Or a GPA from each year? What if you've failed a course? Do they weigh things differently--i.e. half courses, full courses.....
And how important is research? I live in a very limited community where the options of participating in a research endeavour are slim to non-existant. What other ECs are they specifically looking for?
