I am a graduate of BS Pharmacy, and I was having thoughts about studying medicine in Canada for years but I do not know if I could afford tuition fee completely. Does anyone have any idea if it is possible? What is the curriculum like, does it require you the whole day or do you choose your schedule? Help please. Thank you so much
is it possible to work while in medschool?

No you will not be able to work the schedule is very demanding. Getting into med school is also quite difficult. Many students have multiple degrees and have applied more than once. I'm not sure whether you studied pharmacy in Canada or whether you are licensed as a pharmacist in Canada but most Canadian medical students have access to special loans and lines of credit geared towards Canadian students and medical students.
Thank you for your feedback! I am a graduate of Pharmacy outside Canada. It seems like it will be really challenging to achieve my goal. Thanks for the info though.
If you are not a Canadian PR or citizen the fees are actually even higher and there are only a few spots reserved for international students in each medical school. It may also be more difficulty getting into a residency program if you want to be a specialist. I'm not sure why you considered applying to Canadian medical school but it is much easier to get into med schooling in many other countries. Many Canadian students end up in med school in other countries because they haven't been able to get into a program in Canada.
