AncientDentist Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Hey everyone I have a quick question. I am completely done my program but I was taking a final biochem online course that ends in May because it was a prerequisite course of UofT dentistry. However I got accepted to Western and I don't need this course at all anymore. It's not a prerequisite nor is it part of my program. Can I just drop the course without consequence? I know UofT had a contingent GPA rule but I remember reading in a previous post that Western does not. I know you will all tell me to suck it up and finish but I have so much going on this summer and want to travel and stuff so I'm just curious. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambi Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Why not speak with Western adcom and find out directly from the source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kentucky Fried Blaziken Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 I assume you already had the half year biochem prereq for western? And this course is for the full year req at UT? If so i dont see any harm in dropping, this yrs GPA doesnt matter at western Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a little bit paranoid I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AncientDentist Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 If anyone is wondering, I called the admissions office and they told me that it would be no problem for my current admission if I drop the course. However, future specialty applications may be affected by a failing grade on my transcript. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
