bubble_gum Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Hi guys, I am a fourth year science student. I wish to apply to university of Manitoba dental school next cycle for class of 2027 but just worried badly about the interview cut-off. My DAT is sitting at 21 right now but my core gpa is 3.7917. My agpa is ~4.20 I heard that this year's interview cut-off was 3.80 with DAT score of 19.50. Which is the highest it has been. I know that the interview cut-off is different every year but since the trend is going up from 3.7 & 3.75 to 3.8. Do you guys think I stand a chance with 3.791 core gpa?

toothfairy__ Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Like you mentioned, it really varies each year. The past 2 years, it was 3 days of interview but this year, back to 2 days of interview. Just keep in mind that there are 6 credits of retake which they take the higher grade.

flossome Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 If I were you would retake a core course to increase my core course GPA just incase. I don't think the GPA cut off has ever gone down (it could tho depending on the applicant pool) so with a 3.791 you're under the cut-off in the normal applicant category. Your DAT is good tho, good luck next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeej Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Give yourself the best chance possible. If you think you can retake a course and do better in it to get yourself over 3.8 I would lean towards doing that. I wouldn't gamble on the possibility of the core course GPA going down as the trend is that it goes up every year. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, can I ask where you heard about the 19.5 cut off for the dat? This is a great jump from the years before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
