Hi,

I'm considering to applying to med school. I was just viewing the prerequisites for U of T's med school, and they require full course equivalents

What exactly is a "full-course equivalent" and what does that mean in terms of McMaster?

Pls help

Hi Neha,

My understanding is that a full course equivalent would be equal to taking a course for a full year. Mcmaster offers courses you finish in one semester so to do the equivalent of a full course you do two McMaster courses. For example, to do one full-course equivalent of chemistry you would have to do CHEM1A03 in one semester and CHEM1AA3 in a following semester and that adds up to a year of chemistry which is a full course.
