CONFUSED!!! Where do I apply??

[charmer08]

UofT says that a >3.8 is a competitive gpa. So try to get a 3.8 if you want to be competitive at UofT. But I'm pretty sure their might be a few people getting in with a 3.7-3.8, so it never hurts to try.

I would try hard to get your GPA up by next year. 3.75 is not the best of marks (avg entry into U of T is 3.88, and a large majority are 4th year+ students)

I am actually aiming for 2012 entry...I will APPPLY at 2011 fall....


Now for 1st and 2nd year....I took 6 courses every semester...So does U of T look at all 6 or just the best 5......I know that they drop 3 full courses if you apply after 3rd year...and they don't look at ur summer courses right?? I DID go thorugh their admission page...but is there anything else that I need to know regarding GPA calculation....and can my mcat score (40) compensate for my low gpa????

Do they look at summer courses if I take the maximum amount of courses that are allowed to take at U of T??? I also took courses during my coop...do they count???

My understanding is that MCAT other than being a 'flag' is totally irrelevant, so they are unimpressed what your MCAT score is once you exceed the minimum.
