Clark405 Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Hey guys, without discussing particular questions or scenarios, I was wondering how those who interviewed at Sask this past weekend found it. I personally thought that there was a lot of very challenging critical thinking scenarios and not a lot of ethical dilemmas. Interested to hear what you all thought!

kenny878 Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 i think i would agree with this. i think my stations all went well except for one so I'm hoping for good news soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToothDK Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 I, too, found it heavily weighted toward critical thinking-type questions rather than ethical questions, which surprised me a little bit. Some questions required a little more background knowledge than I was expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny878 Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 for sure. I can think of one station in particular that required some knowledge of science/physics that i may not have done too well on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenny878 Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 agreed LOL i love how probably everyone who reads that will know what i'm talking about haha. I feel better now knowing i'm not the only one who may have struggled with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QasH10 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 Does anyone know the exact date of when the results will be released? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryptophan20 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm guessing they'll be released in a couple of weeks, I don't know the exact date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clark405 Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 The college ball parked the notification dates for around the end of March/early April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QasH10 Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 I wish they gave us a specific date. UBC released their results within 2 weeks from what I'm hearing, so it makes me feel like UofS can release it any time as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the number of applicants (in province at least) this year was way down b/c they changed from 2-year requirement to 3-years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Watson Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Im not applying until this winter, so I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that applicants for the 2015-2016 cycle were not affected by the change from 2 to 3 years of full time course work?

I'm pretty certain that change took effect this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToothDK Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Yeah, the new requirements kicked in this year, (you had to have the physiology prereq, for example). The college's request for the completion of an undergrad degree before applying doesn't factor in to this year's cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it's it does but that may just be rumour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Watson Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 do you know if the 4-year requirement kicks in next year? I heard it's it does but that may just be rumour I was under the assumption that they have to give a year notice for this four year degree change. So I would think that people applying this upcoming winter would be exempt from the 4 year degree change. But Im not exactly sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QasH10 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 I believe if they decide to do it, they don't have to give us a full year for the changes. It obviously won't effect the people who have already applied for the 2015 cycle, but if they change it, the new requirements could come into play for the applications for the 2016 cycle.

It obviously won't effect the people who have already applied for the 2015 cycle, but if they change it, the new requirements could come into play for the applications for the 2016 cycle. I was emailing back and forth with an advisor in dentistry about this a while ago, and she did say that they have to give us a year notice for this change, if they go through with it. However, what I'm not sure about is whether the year notice means from the time they updated the website saying that there were 'considering changing' or if it means one year after they actually implement it and change the requirements. Im hoping that they include some of the same things that medicine has included with regard to how much time is acceptable, under certain conditions, to have completed that four year degree... Anyone have any insight on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
