    What Med Schools Do Not Require A Test (MCAT, UKCAT, etc) for admission?

    I am a US student looking to apply to medical school probably in Canada or Australia. I have a severe math learning disability that inhibits me from being able to learn organic chemistry, physics, etc, but I'm very very good at everything else so I don't have any doubts that I can succeed at medical school. However, because of this darn learning disability, I need to apply to a medical school that does not require any sort of standard med school test to get in, just the basis of your GPA, being well rounded, and interviews. Do med schools with these types of admission requirements exist? If so, which ones?

    Thank you!

    Hey, I live in Canada, and the only med schools that don't require mcat is Ottawa and Northern Ontario School of Medicine. Last year, McMaster didn't require an MCAT, but now they require it (I think they only look at the Verbal Reseoning scores though).

    well if you wanted to apply to unis in the uk then you could go for birmingham, bristol, and liverpool as they don't need the bmat or the ukcat.
