Dentalh Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 Does anyone have an idea how many candidates they waitlist initially? Is it possible that the number of wl positions change from year to year as if they expect more movement in a certain year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 Last year was an exceptional year, but i think the waitlist is approx. 12 spots. They also added the DAT's which may affect the applicants that applied to both med and dent (having more applicants who only apply to Dent versus applying to both).

capri95 Posted March 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 From what I've read at U de M and U de laval (the other 2 dent schools in Quebec), the waitlist tends to move 12+, so if were to base if off of that, since they also have the DAT requirement, and McGill previous waitlist ranking statistics, it may or may not change?

I called the admissions office, this year there are 30 people on the IP waitlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought it's common for schools to have enough people on the waitlist to replace the entire class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet they keep 30 ppl on waitlist this year and last year. I may be wrong, but I think they had only 20 wl spots in 2017?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am only asking to figure if they put people on the waitlist based on their anticipation of its movement. In 2017, it only moved to 11. Could it be they put less on the waitlist because they anticipated it is not gonna move much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not 100% sure, sorry, but that what I remember it was in 2017. We may check the thread for that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
