thelosttwo01[/URL said:My question to you is this, what is Griffith like as a place to study dent? Is there anything like messed up course content, lots of not so good lecturers and over-emphasis on SDL? I am asking because I do not know whether to take my chances with doing the UMAT next year to try for UQ Dent or just go into Griffith this year.
YAY They finally introduced sim clinic into first year. Thank you ADC for making it happen. Can't wait for the course structure for it to appear. Getting dent exposure in semester 2 is great ^^. Hopefully that will make the work load lighter for second year. It also appears the subjects for the first 3 years have been reconstructed as part of the update.
All subjects have their course structure in detail when you click on them individually ^^ except they havent put detailed information for the Introduction to Clinical Practice subject in first year. They will probably add it in the coming weeks. Would be interesting to see what they have changedI think the link shows their course structure if you are interested.

No, entry is based solely on your academic results, regardless of degree; they don't discriminate against different degrees. The dent program at Griffith mainly accepts school-leavers, i.e. it assumes no prerequisite knowledge, so you won't be disadvantaged for not having a science degree background if you gain entry.Question: Is there a disadvantage of studying a non-science undergrad to someone who is studying a science undergrad?

Im in first year 2018
Got in with from 1 year physiotherapy 6.875
Partner got in 1 year nursing 6.875
My cohort is about 95. 30 if not more international (mostly canadian) maybe 15 school leavers. Rest undergrad.
Life is easier if u can rpl all general science first year. That said even if u come in from arts etc u should be fine.
According to QTAC there is no QLD school leavers in 2018 cohort, therefore I guess the ~15 school leavers you mentioned should be from interstates. I find that the numbers of school leavers are getting less and less in Griffith Dent.
These were some of the Griffith Dentistry offers from MSO (from 2018 offers thread):Hi I am currently studying at CQU Oral Health and am looking to apply for Griffith Dent next year. So far I am predicting a GPA of 6.5 at the end of this year (hopefully my second term marks are better than my first :/ ). Would I be competitive with this GPA or am I better off looking forward to next year to improve my marks? Did anyone in 2018 get in with a GPA lower than 6.7? Would it be best to apply at a few universities? Although I don't think I would score well in the UMAT

According to previous years, the cutoffs were normally above 6.75, but I think you should apply just in case it lowers down this year.I'm a first year doing undergrad science with a predicted GPA of 6.625. Would this be sufficient for the 2019 intake?
