Comparing admission statistics from medical schools across the country.

Gaining admission to medical school is competitive. As the table below shows, the number of prospective students applying to medical school vastly outnumbers the places available. In-province applicants are generally more successful in gaining a spot than those applying out of province. The grade point average (GPA) shows the average for successful applicants, as does the medical college admission test (MCAT).
