TBH not many people on here are going to know the answer. Your best bet is to email the admissions departments of the schools your interested in and ask what their entry requirement are for Canadian students

You need to look into the admissions requirements of individual schools. Bear in mind that places for international students are few, although St Andrews has an admissions programme specifically for canadian students which also allows you to apply for residency training in canada, so that might be worth checking out.

Hey,

As a Canadian student studying in the UK for medicine now I can say with confidence your grades are well past the minimum expectations. I graduated grade 12 with a 94% avg and achieved a spot. Remember that the UKCAT and your personal statement will also dictate your chances at getting in. We are international applicants so we are at a disadvantage but it shouldn't be too bad for you with your predicted marks.

Now also consider why you want to come here and study medicine. In Canada we have top notch medical schools as well. Sure you can go straight from high school but the chances of you returning to Canada are practically 0. So Please think this through before you jump in and get stuck.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me through pm

Best Wishs!

People sat its easy to come back. Which 4 medical schools should i apply to in terms of ease of admission for international students. Note that i am taking IB/A-levels equivalent courses in my grade 12 year at university as well as ap courses. Does that increase my chances. I just want to get into medical school and want to apply to the easiest. Which ones would you recommend

Make sure to choose schools that you want to go to for 6 years of your life. This will be your late teens and early 20s and you don't get those back. Yes, getting in is important, but keep in mind that there are no easy schools for internationals. They are all about the same competitiveness.

Whats important is making sure you meet entrance requirements, some schools want proof of IB or A-levels on paper, but you may want to ask them if they will accept AP in lieu, some may.
