Hey,

I am a Canadian resident and am thinking of taking next term off to study for my MCAT.
My question is do Canadian med schools care if you take a term off to study for the MCAT? Other than those schools that specify you have to be full-time during the last year or the whole undergrad program.

I am reading a bunch of posts about how it looks bad and stuff, but these are about US schools. I just want to make sure I am on the right track. Let me know what you think.

Thanks
