mark721@live.ca Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I wish to get into UBC. I finished my BSc with Co-op education. My stats are: cGPA 86% RC 16 Bio 22 Chem 25 Sci total 23 AA 21 PAT 22 did not do carving I applied last year to UBC and is waitlisted/rejected. I applied to McGill, Western, and UofT and got rejected by all. I am a BC resident. I am planning to apply to some schools in the States for next year's acceptance. Should I do the carving test and apply to other Canadian schools? Which schools am I competitive in the States? I am debating which community reference letter to choose from. 1) Pastor from my church where I did most of my extra-curricular activities 2) Supervisor (PhD) for my Co-op at a pharmaceutical company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshpattinson Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Dentistry in Canada may be a post-graduate degree. You need associate collegian degree before you'll apply. This can be clearly ordered out on the UBC Dentistry site: 2.Complete 3 educational years (90 credits) at a recognized school at The University of British Columbia, or its equivalent, by April 2013. 3. Achieve a minimum overall mark Average of seventieth or a pair of.8 on a 4.0 grading scale for ALL college/university work (including unsuccessful courses). whereas a GPA of seventieth is that the minimum demand, candidates ought to consult the doorway statistics to see if their application are competitive. 4. Complete the specified necessity courses by April of the educational year during which they apply." You also need to complete a placement test. Hope it will help you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sistar19 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 any news? when does the class start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat kelly Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 any news? when does the class start? Classes start August 26, but there are only 50 people in 2017 now so there are a few people that dropped their acceptances. I personally think it's unlikely that they will take more students at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stage15 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 ya it seems some ppl dropped their spot any change in # from intranet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalstudent14 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 ya it seems some ppl dropped their spot any change in # from intranet? I dont think they will be accepting anyone now becuz the intranet is 49 people and 1 person is a repeat student. So 48 accepted, which is in line with the # of people from past years as shown on the entrance stats Since the #on intranet was 54 before I think this shows that ubc over accepts. Sorry to all who were hoping to get in off wl, but work hard for next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stage15 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 didnt you say class size is 52-55? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat kelly Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 didnt you say class size is 52-55? they accept more people than there are spots, plus there are students who had to deal with personal issues from previous classes as well. Honestly, at this point I think everyone is committed to UBC now for class of 2017, and UBC is not really the "best" school to get into anyways. There are other great schools out there and you should really explore your options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalstudent14 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Ya the class sizes of the upper years are all 50+, but if u compare with entrance stats its usually 48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcdmd Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 where on the intranet site are you guys seeing the numbers of students? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldcrown250 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Ya the class sizes of the upper years are all 50+, but if u compare with entrance stats its usually 48. They take in 10 or so internationally trained dentists in at the start of 3rd year, so that's why upper years have more than 48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
