UBC Dentistry Pre-req help

[dent100]

I attend University of Toronto at Mississauga. I was looking at the pre-reqs required for UBC dentistry and found English and Math requirements to be rather confusing. I emailed them and they said that they dont provide course equivalents.

 

I was wondering does a first year english course at university level satisfy the english requirement for UBC

 

For math, i only have first year calculus (1 credit). How many more courses in math would i require? UBC webiste for math requirements posts 6 credits which makes no sense

 

Thanks in advnace for the help

For 6 credits of math you would have to take the second calculus course as well. In my case I did.

 

The english is tricky, maybe someone else on the forum can add their help

About the English requirement:

 

Yes a first year english course does count; that's in fact what I'm taking at UWO to fill the pre-requisite for UBC.

Thanks for the replies

 

Bellaortho, do u mean a second year calculus course or a full 2nd year credit (ie 2 courses)

6 credits = 6 semester hours

 

if you have a 1 credit math course at utm, it should suffice. 1 credit at uoft = 6 semester hours

 

i wish uoft would convert to the standard credit hour system; things would be so much easier for us

6 credit at ubc means that the course lasts from sept( beginning of school year) to april(the end). Although there is some days' off between the two semesters, they are connected.
