Hello everybody, first time posting here. I'm Non trad, graduated a bunch of years ago from uOttawa with a bachelor's in Biomedical sciences. I don't have any clinical exposure or job experience in the field ( courtesy of the job market, been applying for every entry level position, even volunteering posts are rare these days). Have a bunch of volunteering but mostly outside of Canada, I had most of my schooling during COVID so no real communication with any professors. I graduated Summa Cum Laude ( GPA: 9.41), and have a 524 MCAT (130 cars), taking CASPER in August. I have pivoted into management and have support and solid letters of rec from higher ups in the company as well as a bunch of students I mentored as well as from personal mentors of mine ( somebody tell me if these letters are even valid/valuable). I moved here alone a few years ago so finances and sorting out my immigration to be eligible for Med School was the real initial issue for me ( would really appreciate any help or advice from anyone that went from immigrant to now studying in medical school). I live in Ontario, so worth it to only apply in province or should i apply to all canadian schools ? really stressed as i feel the window for this cycle is closing in. ANY advice is appreciated, treat me as if i don't know ANYTHING lol.

Thank you so very much.

Pretty self explanatory, ask me whatever you want, I'll answer honestly, hopefully helping you.

Know this sheet like the back of your hand and P/C calculation questions will feel like a breeze.

Hello everybody, I've scored a 524 on my first try while working full time ( 50 hours a week sometimes). Ask me anything and i'll answer as best I can. I'm also open to sharing my personal decks, study notes, strategies and anything you guys might need.

PS: If there is one thing you can take away from this post ( though it might seem hypocritical lol), is UNLESS you have a specific question about something, stay off this subreddit. Scrolling would be non productive and would only hurt your studying in many many ways.
