What R score do you need for biomedical sciences?
R scores at the latest admissions
For each university, the lowest R score admitted at the latest published admission, the average when the university publishes it, and the previous year's R score.
| University | Year | Lowest R score | Average | Previous year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Université de Montréal | 2025 | 30.854 | 33.670 | 29.480 |
| Université Laval | 2025 | 27.500 | N/A | 27.500 |

Estimate my R scoreGood to know
- At Université Laval, the published R score is a minimum R score: below it, the application does not move on to the next stage. The Casper situational judgment test is also required.
- At Université de Montréal, the average of the students admitted is well above the R score of the last admitted student, since the program is in high demand.
How to read these figures
Unless noted otherwise, the R score in a table is that of the last person admitted: the lowest among those who received an offer. The average, when the university publishes it, shows where most admitted students stand.
These R scores change every year, depending on the number of applications and the strength of the applicants. An equal or higher R score does not guarantee admission, and a slightly lower R score does not rule it out. So apply anyway, with a second and a third choice.
When the selection also takes other criteria into account, such as an exam or an interview, the R score is mostly used to sort applications. The rest is then decided on those other criteria.
