Sounds like something that has to be accepted as part of the purchase. Though really your ongoing costs with a Tesla, even with the door being keyed, should be minimal compared to my dinosaur-bone-burning-bygone-era-fart-mobile. I spend $500 a month on gas alone.

I still think it should be a carms like system where you basically find out everything immediately on the match day. You can design a system that almost completely eliminates down to a single event. Only thing that isn't so simple is the people accepted but completely withdraw (rare) and people that match out of province as well as in province Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg_McMuffin Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 I'm really looking forward my conference trip this week . Should be a really nice drive, I'll finally get to meet the people I've been doing long-distance collaborations with, and I'll have time to do fun things with friends, and do a little shopping too. Most importantly, should be a good distraction from this waitlist shenanigans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I mean I eat them occasionally....it's all about moderation, right? It's definitely not the worst thing in the world. Even the sausage one has just 430kcal, 25g fat, 20g protein, and 850mg sodium- that's 1/3 to 1/2 compared to ordering a burger at, say, Boston Pizza. I always ask for no margarine on the English muffins, and get it with ham instead of sausage to cut the fat and salt down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg_McMuffin Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 It honestly feels like the last couple of days has been a fantasy dream of some sort. I still can't believe it. ='] I know they say that all your problems don't just go away with an acceptance...but for me it honestly feels like that's been the case lol. Damn, I just feel so....blessed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only that couldn't last for me once I realized I still need to pass one more hurdle before I get to enjoy a carefree summer.

There are new hurtles to come of course but now is the time to take it all in and go enjoy the universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes the whole thing seem so much more attainable every time I hear of a new student getting in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaeden Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Someone very close to me failed out of a Canadian dental school over one practical. The school didn't let this person back in and I honestly don't know what to say to help. I'm posting this on the persons behalf since they're too embarrassed to accept what happened, especially since they did well in the other courses and had everything going for them. They feel lost and don't know what to do next with life. Whats the best way to help someone get through something like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambi Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 I guess to be there emotionally for this person as he/she adjusts to the reality of the situation while grappling emotionally and psychologically with it. This person needs to regroup and move on with life, with your support validating his/her worth, demonstrating care and respect. We are all suited for more than one profession and circumstances, opporuntity and luck, good and bad, influence the outcome. This person will. Ounce back and is fortunate to have you in his/her corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a dentist or dental student, but it feels like there's more to this story than being told. There should have been an opportunity for remediation (unless that was failed too). Hope it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very difficult to do so unless there is some catastrophic issue or the student decides to leave. There's certainly more to the story, and I think you might want to get those details as part of helping your friend deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
