I was in the same situation as you last year (20th~ percentile for MMI, only applied to one school). This school year I started prepping from october, applied to 3 schools (manitoba/bc/alberta) and got accepted to 2/3 of them. I don't think preparing a lot is bad especially if you don't think you have a natural proclivity for them! By the final two months I was doing around 5 questions a day, reviewing my answers afterwards, and meeting up with 2-3 people a week in addition to that.

Do you mean if they count A as 4.0 or as 3.9? They do the the former if that's what you're asking. But yeah if you email chris she'll tell you (or call her!) -

RBC vs Scotiabank for LOC
JarBlues replied to JarBlues's topic in Medical Student General Discussions
Is that after your grace period? I believe scotiabank counts residency as part of your studies so the prime - 0.25% rate continues until your grace period ends. -
RBC vs Scotiabank for LOC
JarBlues replied to JarBlues's topic in Medical Student General Discussions
RBC recently did a change to their LOC program so they now offer a longer grace period (2 years), CC fees are waived for 4 years, and the biggest difference I see is that my RBC advisor told me after the grace period ends their interest rate currently remains at prime -0.25% white scotiabank told me their interest rate changes to prime. Can anyone confirm/deny? -
I'm having a very difficult time choosing between these two banks for my LOC. They essentially offer the same deal so I'm not sure what to look for to make a decision. Can anyone who faced this problem talk about how they came to a decision?

What is your LOC Thread
JarBlues replied to hardlyeasy's topic in Medical Student General Discussions
Can you confirm that Scotia offered you prime - 0.25 that stays the same during repayment? I know that the prime 0.25 stays the same during grace period, but after the grace period is over my advisor told me that it gets changed to prime. -
I think reading the DMD FAQ for ubc would help you greatly since I assume you'd want to get into UBC. UBC is extremely good for IP applicants since if you get an interview it's basically a 50% chance to get in (i.e. you just need to be above the 50th percentile). http://www.dentistry.ubc.ca/dmd/dmd-faq/

JarBlues replied to LittleCatSteps's topic in Dental Student General Discussions
accepted! Does anyone know how to complete the immunizations required? I'm pretty sure I haven't gotten a single shot in like... 15 years. Do I just go to my family doctor? I'm actually so confused about this part
