AncientDentist Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Accepted off waitlist (yesterday at 3:03 PM) IP Best 2 yrs: 90.1% (full course load) DAT: 22RC / 22AA Graduated from Western in 2015 (Did a 5th year of UG) Accepting ABS stuffs: -volunteered in a lab for a couple years during undergrad -a very small amount of dental shadowing (both general dentist and specialist) -partnered in creating an online study aid and collaborated with psychology researchers/professors to create a primary study -lots of sports and sport related training As for my marks, because I took a 5th year before graduating they said they combined two of my years (repeat years) so I'm not sure the exact best two years they used on my application. I'd say somewhere between 88% - 90%. Been years of waiting to be able to make this post. Hang in there everyone and don't give up even if it seems impossible at times. Focus on ECs and doing some unique stuff as it looks like they are trending towards putting a lot more weight on that kind of stuff. Waitlisters, try not to stress out too much if possible, movement will continue right up until the end of August. Start looking into what the next step will be if you don't end up getting a call from Trish this year. If anyone ever has any questions or would like some guidance feel free to PM me and I'll do my best to respond and give some insight to the best of my abilities. I'm very happy for you!

thedoc Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 I am in a bind, I am accepted to another program (non-dent) which I need to confirm soon and on the WL at UWO. Do you think I should call UWO to see the odds of getting off the WL or just focus on plan B?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dentos Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Congratulations on being accepted to the other program, and I am sorry to hear that you are in a bind. From my experience, I don't think you should bother calling them to ask them about your chances of getting off the WL, because they wouldn't disclose that information. Good luck!

Dentos Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Does anyone know if the waitlist movement would increase in August as much as it did in June? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachoolibre Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Does anyone know if the waitlist movement would increase in August as much as it did in June? Some movement (if any) should occur after the 2nd deposit is due in early August. Not expecting it to move more than a couple spots tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user123 Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 I am calling in today or tomorrow to remove myself so a spot should be opening up soon for whoever is waiting! Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
