Hi I am going into bio sci next year at guelph, and I am a bit confused as a to what liberal electives are good GPA boosters.
I've heard the SPTM 1020 and Psych 1000 are good but Psych has a heavy course load.
If you have taken any elective pls feel free to share your advice.
I’m really stuck between Waterloo Health/Life Sci and Guelph Biological Sciences for premed and would love some honest advice from current students or grads.
My end goal is med school, so GPA, opportunities, and overall vibe matter a lot to me. How hard is it to maintain a high GPA in either program? and what’s the workload and social vibe like? and would you recommend it for someone aiming for med school?
Also, I know at Guelph I think you need around a 75% average to transfer into Biomed, but does Waterloo have a certain average/GPA you need to maintain to move on to next year or stay in the program?
I don't know a lot about Waterloo first year course, so any help regarding that would also be really helpful. Any honest advice would really help because I’ve been going back and forth for so long
I need help deciding between Biological Sciences and Biomedical Sciences at the University of Guelph. I got accepted into both, and my end goal is med school (not just aiming for one school like McMaster though). I know both programs do not have co-op, but there are internship opportunities and share similar first-year/core courses, which is why I’m stuck.
If anyone is currently in either program or graduated from them, especially pre-med students, which one would you recommend? Like which program is better for maintaining a strong GPA, getting opportunities, and preparing for med school?
Also, if Biomed is the better option, I believe I’d still have the chance to switch later.
