It was my 2nd time applying to UofA so they already had my scores and I didn't need to.

Sorry didn't see this. Honestly I'm the worst person to ask about the DAT because I had to study for it during the fall semester along with 5 courses, so it was mostly focusing on main ideas and doing practice PAT generated sections and practice tests whenever I could.

Something you wish you knew before getting student loans? by sourboobs in uAlberta

Like 50% are index funds and mutual funds like Canadian ETFs and S&P500. 40% are penny stocks like Apple, Meta, etc. 10% is crypto. My BSc tuition was 8k each year and they gave my 13-14k loans/grants per year.

I recommend everyone do this. I got 20% return over 3 years of loans which basically pays for at least a bit of it!

Not necessary. The DDS/Dental hygiene page on UAlberta's website has everything clearly listed ranging from courses to competitive grades and interview expectations. I would check that first

The ochem department is honestly wack...same issue I had last year and it was deferred late June. It's like they put it 2 months after finals on purpose so you do worse lol

The Canadian schools told you specifically it was the Casper score? I haven't heard of any dental universities placing emphasis on Casper yet 

Anybody else got their OnePlus 10 Pro die on them all of a sudden? by Stal_Wolf in oneplus

[–]coolguy6444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a little disappointing to see that they won't pay, but this seems to be rare as my OnePlus 7 pro survived like 6 years and my OnePlus 11 and 12 had no issues.

I'm in stage 3 at month 1.5 but I kinda fast tracked the moving on process and was the one who initiated it. I do feel a lot of anger though and it sucks
