I am canadian and plan on going to med school here. It is very very competitive, and as a back up, me and a lot of other people plan on going to the U.S. for med school. Just how easy is it? What kind of University grades are necessary to get in? (for anything half decent)

im an MSIII here in NY, basically to get in you have to have something that makes you stand out of the huge applicant pool and gets you an interview, either a great GPA, a great MCAT, or some solid reseach with good rec letters, after that just buy a suit and interview well

i only had a 3.4 in undergrad, but i got a 35 on my MCATs and had good letters of rec

don't go to med school unless you really want to, it's a pretty rough life, and the kids that drop out do so not because they're not smart enough, but because it isn't worth it to them
