I have an interview at Dalhousie coming up and I was just wondering if anybody knew what sort of questions I should expect?

Do any med schools force you to purchase laptops? Personally, I cant stand the things Im much happier with my desktop.

thanks

Although the choice was basically self regulated, this forum provided a valuable resource for me. I think it is extremely important for people to not only know why and how to become a physician, but also why not-the latter applies to me.

In particular, has anyone done this at U of T? Am I better to apply to start a 'life-science' program at U of T or a non-degree application? I'm not sure how the med schools will look at the GPA from this 'extra' year.

1) Do Med Schools take into consideration what university you go to? I want to go to York University due to financial reasons

2) When doing the undergrad is taking Coop useful? Like Coop in UofT Life Science Coop ( Neuroscience)

Can this bad scenario be turned around?

For someone who is deciding to return to school full time after an 7 yr absence (graduated with a general BA), and looking at the possibility of getting in to med school, but have a record of some REALLY bad grades for science options that were completed back then (2.2/4 - 3/4), attempted Organic Chem but withdrew, attempted it again and didn't pass (I can say that this was entirely due to the wrong study habbits and lack of... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (restarting001) http://premed101.yuku.com/topic/1758 Sat, 10 Jan 2004 22:15:22 GMT http://premed101.yuku.com/topic/1298/t/Question-about-research-and-no-research.html
As an undergrad student myself, my first pillar is getting into medical school. So, is research a key thing Adcoms look at when you apply? Can you still get in even if you did absolutely no research, given that you have other extra-cirricular activities to compensate your non-academic profile?

I guess my question really is: What aspects of research are seen as favorable by the committee that choses the residency spots? The reason I am asking is because i need to chose a place to work in the summer and I don't know what criteria I should base my decision on.

Thanks

I've recently returned to school to complete the necessary prereqs for med school and was wondering about the benefits of 3 yr programs (other than being one yr shorter). I know UofC has a 3 yr program and have also heard that Mcmaster's program is 3 yrs also.

Are there any other locations with 3 yr programs?

Thanks
