Option for residency coming from an Australian school


Recommended Posts

I was just wondering what my chances are for coming back to residency. Does anyone have any experience applying for residency after graduating from an Australian school? Do Canadian dental schools prioritize Canadian dental school graduates for residency?

I applied for GPR for UofT, Western, and some other GPR residencies across canada after coming back and working for a little bit. 
i graduated from an aussie school btw. 

I got interviews at UofT and frankly I found the interview process to be really weird at Sinai, Sunnybrook was panel. 

Long story short: I didn't get into the GPR program at any of the schools in Canada. The year i applied to was also the COVID shut down year so maybe that had to do with the applicant pool? I remember somone saying there's like 300 applicants for the 3 spots at sunnybrook which is stupid.....

I think you're much better of applying for residency in the US instead. The competition in Canada for residency/GPR is crazy and IMHO not worth it.
