chaika Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hi I was wondering does having downward trend affect my application that much? 1st year: 3.94 (92%) 2nd year: 3.93 (90%) 3rd year: 3.84 - 3.87 (87-88%) --> depends on how badly I do on my exam for my summer course I've really noticed a significant decrease in motivation in my 3B term and the fact that I had a severe chronic condition which affected my concentration greatly Applying this fall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PintApples Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 The deviation isn't large and your GPA is already very high and above the interview cutoffs for Canadian dental schools, so you should be secured for interview spots. It's expected that 3rd year courses are harder than 1st year courses so I'd say you won't be hindered in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That, and you can also justify why there's a downward trend with your chronic condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
