futuretoothfairy101 Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted: Accepted!! GPA % (best two years): 92.77% Current Year: 4th year DAT (AA/PAT/RC): 24, 24, 21 ABS: pretty good, I have a lot of experiences but not many school-related ones Casper: 3 IP/OOP: IP Interview thoughts: felt really good, not as conversational as others mentioned in the past, but that was probably bc i was nervous. i think they really liked me and i clicked with them! groupchat + facebook group for other admitted students: https://www.facebook.com/share/yCwphrNGvCU6nYti/?mibextid=K35XfP https://m.me/ch/AbYPr9XsYaOgj5aU/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElliotElephant Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Since this helped me when I was applying, thought it might be helpful for future applicants Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted: A GPA % (best two years): ~3.98 (idk what the percentage would be) Current Year: gap (currently working) DAT (AA/PAT/RC): 20/23/23 ABS: Decent; I think I maxed out all sections. My experience I would say is pretty typical, i.e. awards, club president/exec roles, research (school and hospital), jobs, 100h shadowing Casper: 4 IP/OOP: IP Interview thoughts: Wasn't conversational but answered all the questions and hoped for the best zbdktr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verytoothy Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Hey! I’m currently in third year, if I apply at the beginning of fourth year my 2 yr for UWO would be 86%. Is it worth it to apply and take my dat? Or should I wait until after 4th year to raise my 2 yr gpa? Any advice helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akxcs Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted: HWL GPA % (best two years): 92.27% Current Year: 4th DAT (AA/PAT/RC): 22/23/21 ABS: Diverse but did not fill out all sections. Lots of long-term commitments: School club where I worked my way up to club president, employment as a tutor for four years, lots of shadowing and some dental assisting, one research, some volunteering. Quality over quantity I guess! Casper: 2Q IP/OOP: IP Interview thoughts: Very question and answer, not as conversational as I expected. Took some pauses here and there to think about the questions they asked, definitely felt like it could have gone a lot better. Was able to incorporate some personal experiences in some, but mostly tried to demonstrate how I felt in some of the situations and what my thoughts were; adding those personal touches definitely saved my interview a bit.

Hey friend I saw that you’re accepted at UofT! Congratulations. Just wondering if you’re accepting the HWL offer for UWO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niveaniveanivea Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted: LWL GPA % (best two years): 3.96 (idk what percentage is) Current Year: 4th DAT (AA/PAT/RC): 24/26/20 ABS: A lot of sport awards (no school awards), 50h shadowing, no research, exec in a couple of clubs, volunteering Casper: 4th IP/OOP: IP Interview thoughts: Pretty bad, I was not prepared for western's type of questions and barely gave any good answers. However, I did smile was very relaxed throughout. But I felt so bad about my interview I'm surprised I even got waitlisted lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoothfairy Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Accepted/Waitlist/Rejection: MWL GPA: ~88% DAT SCORE: 22 AA/ 23 PAT / 21 RC YEAR OF STUDY: 4th ABS: Server, Chair side dental assistant, 300+ hours volunteering (children STEM education charity, ICU in hospital, student tutor), 100+ hours shadowing, Soccer team captain, various awards/bursaries. CASPER: 3rd IP/OOP: OOP Interview thoughts: I really was blind sided by the complexity/how many parts the questions had to them. I felt like I gave off a good vibe, but not the best technically correct answers. I expected a waitlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrngrc Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Accepted/waitlist/rejection: MWL GPA: 92% DAT SCORE: 26 AA/23 PAT/26 RC Year of study: gap year ABS: a bit of everything, but overall not the strongest. Didn't fill out anywhere near all the possible entries. Casper: 4 IP/OOP: OOP Interview thoughts: felt like it was just ok. I didn't really feel like my interviewers connected with me and there were definitely a few questions that could have gone better. I also feel like I rambled at times and found it hard to give personal examples. Wasn't super surprised that I was waitlisted tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
