TL;DR

Different scores in admission criteria suggest that McGill uses different standards to select older medical students, and older students admitted under different criteria do just as well as do younger students by their clinical years.

Abstract

Different scores in admission criteria suggest that McGill uses different standards to select older medical students. Older students admitted under different criteria, however, do just as well as do younger students by their clinical years. A broad-based study of admission criteria and outcomes for the older student population is warranted.
