Medical School Reapplicants and International Schools

International schools can be a good option for medical school applicants whose grades or MCATs are not at a satisfactory level for US medical schools. But ensure you do your research first: The schools can be very expensive, so be certain you can afford the tuition before you waste your time on an application. Other options: Doing a post-bacc year to increase your science GPA or considering some DO schools that have less rigorous admissions requirements.
