orgolover Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 I know people who got into Canadian Dental/Medical schools, but yet they were unable to reserve a spot in Ireland. They have very different criteria. I'd try Aussie and US schools as their eligibility criteria is less vague. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mightychondria Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I have heard back from TCD today and was placed on a “short waitlist” with a “very good likelihood of a place becoming available”, however I will be withdrawing this waitlist offer so there is still hope guys!! This means there is still lots of movement :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super28 Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 How did TCD contact you? Through atlantic bridge or on their own? Also just wondering if you made any updates to your application in the last 1-2 months? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also just wondering if you made any updates to your application in the last 1-2 months? I got an email from the admissions officer at Atlantic bridge (Vi Doan). I haven’t made any updates to my application at all, I just submitted my applications on the last day tbh and haven’t done anything else after that. This was the first time I had received any sort of update from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k24a2 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 got a rejection from Trinity Dublin this week, still haven't officially heard from the other two I applied to, but i'm pretty sure they already sent their offers a few months ago anyways. I applied back in April I believe and COVID annihilated my application cause my transcript was stuck in the mail, but I managed to resolve it. Debating on if I should even bother applying again. I'll be writing the DAT in november to compensate for my GPA,.. see what happens Anyone else hear back from them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend doing a post-bacc or master's degree to up your GPA a little; I would aim for a 3.50 at least before applying. Good luck well that doesn't help at all, Sounds like all Canadian schools especially uofT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
