UofT Question

Hi I found this on UofT's site:

"We use the MCAT as a flag only, and as such marks higher than the minimums do not improve the chances of the application."

Does this mean that if I get a really high mark my chances are not higher than a guy that just passed with the minimums?

thanks

Precisely. GPA, PS, LORs, Sketch > MCAT at U of T.

Best of luck.

Ahhh man, that sucks!!!! I'm going to grade 12 this year, and was hoping to study for a few years to get a reaaaaally good mark on the MCAT. But guess I should stop that? Is there anything else I could do right now to improve my chances?

If you're not trolling and are that keen my advice: enjoy your senior year of high school and do something kickass the summer before undergrad.

If U of T is your ideal medical school then make sure to get a good breadth of experience outside of studying for the MCAT. People don't study for the MCAT years on end. When the time comes, you'll take a few (or several) months, buckle down, and do your best.

Good luck and consider forgetting about these forums for a few years.

What is the matter with you... 👎

lol... I just don't wanna say that I wanna go to med school now and not do anything about it. I don't want to be all regretful when application time does come around. Instead of working super hard in the last minute I'd rather slowly and less painfully build up my application.
