ravenjays Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 I don't know if my title makes too much sense, but basically, I'm asking if there's any benefit to taking an additional physiology credit more than what they ask. For example, I have taken 2 physiology courses in my 2nd year, but I feel like I could improve my grade. Is there any benefit of taking a physiology credit this semester to 'improve' on those grades? Or should I just focus on increasing my GPA as much as possible with an easier course since I've satisfied the requirements? I'm asking this in general for dentistry schools across Canada. If it varies from place to place, do you know how that would work? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3booodi Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 They don't care if you take a million courses above the pre reqs. Taking a physiology course that's complementary to the previous one won't boost your gpa, they will account it as a new course by its own. Best thing to do is to take an easier course that you're willing to put work into . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenjays Posted January 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 @3booodi Are the prerequisite weighed any differently compared to the non-prerequisites? Or is it just calculated as a cGPA and they just want to ensure that I have them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3booodi Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 They're counted towards your cGPA, and they want to ensure that you took them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longteethgriffy Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Yeah they don't care man. Your best be is to fulfill the pre reqs as well as you can and then go take Intro to Turning on your Computer 101 and How to hold a Fork 201.

I heard from the grapevine that they actually prefer it if you took more prereq courses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was the case, wouldn't people who have a science background have a considerably better chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
