Ms. Anonymous Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 I've looked at a billion forums and discussions online, checked the university statistics but I want someone to give me the reality check. I'm majoring in Biochemistry (honors program) at a canadian university. I'll be applying to american and canadian dental schools next year. And my cumulative average is 81.55% and major average is 82.22%. Given that I do well on the DAT and that I will be doing my thesis this year, I'll probably be doing some dental shadowing, do I have a chance? I know other factors count but I need to know my chances based solely on the information provided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingu48 Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 I would say your chances at Canadian universities are low. UWO looks at your best 2 years (so does Sask), so look into those if your best 2 years are good. You could get an interview at UWO if your ECs are great since UWO is a much more EC heavy school. You pretty much need 90+ if you're applying to Sask as an OOP. US would be your best shot, but I saw a recent post about how the GPA conversion to US schools changed (may deflate your grades). If you do choose to go to the US, would you be willing to have $500k in debt by the end of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms. Anonymous Posted August 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 As long as I could become one, I can pay the debt off. But it looks like I'm probably aiming higher than I can achieve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
