Yeah, like last year I was waitlisted middle third and never got in. So unfair that he gets a chance that I didn’t. Anyways maybe it’s for the best

And we haven’t even gotten an email stating that we’re not getting in lol. My friends have had their second day of classes and we got nothing.  I’m literally not gonna apply here next year. This is mental torture. 

[futureDr.C 18]

Yeah these past 2 days have been hard, just knowing that there is no chance anymore! I'm defiantly looking into other schools to apply to next year, and boosting my DAT for more security. 

Everyone who was waitlisted, we truly deserve a pat on the back for dealing with all the shit from admissions this year.... having people get in that were below us, lied to, no contact and having our interview opportunity taken away from us. 

Truly hope that we get what we all deserve next year, whether it be that we get into dentistry or find another program/job that fits us better. 

I try to think of the positives that we will possibly get the full orientation and classroom experience next year.

That was worded so well. What a good summary of the crap we put up with this year. Absolutely unbelievable.

I think they'll come next week, cause this week was only orientation and possibly 1-2 days of classes. 

Not looking like anyone is going to drop dentistry. 

Even did you see nursing hasn't made it through the top ten, I don't know why no waitlists are moving this year.....

I got my rejection letter after the class was finalized early August last year

Just so you guys are aware, McGill University-Faculty of Dentistry announced today that they will not require the DAT for 2021 Fall admissions. Who knows what the other dental schools will do

 

Registration for the CDAT is August 31 as of now although it was July 15 then August 15th.

Its on the selection criteria PDF on the website (although it doesn't say anything about CASPer on main page) CASPer has 0% weight in the application, it's for research purposes, it HAS to be done by November 19th 

It does not replace the interview and USASK still requires DAT

[futureDr.C 18]

Given the current pandemic situation, the Canadian Dental Association is not able to safely offer the Manual Dexterity section for the November 2020 DAT. Therefore, the Manual Dexterity section will not be included in the evaluation of applicants for the 2021 admission cycle. Applicants will still need to present a minimum score of 15/30 in each of the Reading & Comprehension and Perceptual Ability sections.  The November 2020 DAT will be considered for Fall 2021 admission.
