Hello all,
I'm a Premed at a Canadian University and was planning on applying to med. schools in the states, because its damned near impossible to get in Canada because most schools need atleast a 3.7 GPA just to be considered.
My question is, do school in the U.S. care if you take vital courses like Physics, or Organic Chem. in the summer session alone? As in just taking them by themselves with no other courses, hence giving a better chance to get a high mark in these challenging courses.
If they do accept courses taken in the summer, do they prefer someone who has taken say Organic Chem or Physics in the fall/winter sessions over someone who has taken them in the summer alone?
Also does anyone know a website that summarizes all the requirements for all or most of the medical schools in the United States?
Thanks in Advance ALL
