dentalgal3123 Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 i'm number 22 on the waitlist hopefully the trend isn't a decrease from year to year ! (2007-2008 - waitlist moved 40 spots; 2008-2009 - waitlist moved 21 spots) where did u get these stats from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebird Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 where did u get these stats from? 2007-2008 stats are on the UofT dentistry site. The 21 comes from a dentistry student on these boards, but it was just his best guess (it's probably accurate though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddy Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Congrats on those who got in, and those on the waitlist as well - those lists move quicker than you think! For those accepted, do you mind posting some stats like some of you have been doing so the rest of us can see what's required to get in? Congrats again!

Endeavour Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Hi guys,... I just got rejected, not even wait listed. Aside from feeling like utter ****, I'm just slightly confused. The averages for those admitted were GPA 3.84, AA 20, and PAT 20. I have 3.88, 21, 17. Can someone tell me if that PAT score of 17 really hurt me, or if it was more likely the interview? The interview I thought went okay except for the last question where I botched it. I've sent an email to their office but I was wondering if any of you guys could give me your thoughts? Thanks, and congrats to those who got in. Hey Ryan, I'm sure next year will be much better for you, many people take two cracks before opening that door, so keep your head up. No, it definitely was not PAT because at that stage, DAT mean very little. Just work on your interview techniques and think through your interview and what you will do to improve next year. You'd be surprized, many applicants with 3.9+ get rejected with bad interviews...and some 3.7ish students with stellar interviews get in. Good luck next year. For those accepted, Congrats, well earned! For those waitlisted, In my opinion (and personal experience in dentistry), based on last several years of data at UT, and yes the stats for 07-08 is in that ballpark for waitlist movement. Although unoffcial, the faculty will release the stats for last year 08-09 (soon I hope), it wasn't just 21 movement on the waitlist, but slightly more due to late withdrawls etc.... So if your in top 20, i'd say it's only a matter of time you get that acceptance, stay calm - easier said than done, I know . From positions 20+ up, it's anybody's game since we have a moving avg from year to year. As for OOP, unfortunately many OOP grab their seat and stay put. Good luck to all.

bone Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Endeavour, have any idea how many spots usually move per year on the OOP waitlist? I was under the impression that there is only one wait list and there is no difference for applicants OOP or in province. Hey Endeavour what year are you in?

mach Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Nah, there's definitely a separate pool for OOP. I hope so too or else there's TWO people who are #4 wait listed ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mach Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I hope so too or else there's TWO people who are #4 wait listed ha ha And I wonder how they decide?? Do they say "oh, OOP guy is going to UWO, time to get OOP guy waitlist #1" i should really just give them a ring tmr morning instead of speculating ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those accepted, do you mind posting some stats like some of you have been doing so the rest of us can see what's required to get in? Congrats again! My DAT had an AA of 20 and a PAT of 18 My undergrad GPA is about 3.8, and my grad school gpa is probably the same. I did a masters in molecular genetics at U of T and have 3 publications. I've also done lots of extra curricular stuff and U of T decorated me as such, but I only brought that up during the interview. Hope that helps u future applicants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mach Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Thanks for the info mach! just wondering, was that a 3 publications in 2 years? I published various works within my first 2 years. i'm in my 3rd year writing up now. Molecular Genetics is a long program but really intense and good for publication if you like that stuff.
