Hey guys. Aoa. I am a canadian national studying in DMC on merit, class of 2015. My first semester well pretty much sucked i got gpa 2.55 because i wasnt used to the questioning style etc. I wanna ask
1. How much GPA matter? Do i have no chance because of my 2.55 for residency?
2. Does my nationality help me or is it of no use?
3. Should i go for canadian residency or usmle?

Sorry for late reply..Didi not read this page…
GPA does not matter a lot…not at this moment…Step scores matter…But do try to improve ur GPA…work hard as it willpay off
Canadian nationality is not as big as boost ….US nationality matters
Its ur choice as to what u want but i would recommend USMLE over canadian exams
