Build your Biology, Chemistry, and Math foundations to prepare for Medical Lab Technician admission requirements and succeed in one of Canada’s fastest-growing health care careers.
Lab Technicians are the backbone of health care diagnostics, running blood tests, microbiology, and clinical analysis. These programs are competitive, requiring strong science and math skills. Tutoring helps mature students and recent grads bridge the gap and succeed.
Colleges usually expect the following:
This pathway is open to:
Pre-Health Science gives you the missing courses, builds confidence, and prepares you for lab-intensive study. Benefits include:
Direct entry requires recent, strong grades in Biology, Chemistry, Math, and English. If your transcript is incomplete, outdated, or below 65–70%, you may not qualify. Pre-Health provides a recognized pathway to admission.
Compare your transcript with program prerequisites. Missing Biology or Chemistry? Below 70% average? Old or international transcript? You’ll likely need Pre-Health Science or upgrading before admission.
Apply during Grade 12 if your marks may not meet cut-offs, or right after graduation if you fall short. Mature students can apply anytime, often with admissions assessments. Many keep Pre-Health as a “backup” option when applying through OCAS.
To qualify for Medical Lab Technician programs, aim for:
Stronger grades also prepare you for career growth into Medical Laboratory Technologist roles (degree-level programs).
