Selection Process
The selection of applicants is based on transcripts, curriculum vitae (CV), CASPer Test and interviews. We consider human and social skills as important as academic performance in the selection of our students. Applicants must meet a minimum score in these two indicators to move forward in the process. The files of candidates who are not invited for interviews are not considered further.
Note: Some universities and colleges have legacy programs which give special admission consideration to relatives of graduates; 平特五不中 does not have a legacy admission program.听 Admission to the Faculty of Dental Medicine and Oral Health Sciences is based solely on academic and competency-based criteria.听 Letters of support from alumni, friends and family do not advantage (or disadvantage) an application.听
Being selected for an interview
To determine which applicants will be invited for an interview, a candidate鈥檚 academic performance is weighted at 70%, the CASPer Test is weighted at 20% and the curriculum vitae (CV) at 10%. Please note that the DAT scores will not be used in determining an applicant's ranking.
Academic performance is broken down in the following way:
- 60% based on the undergraduate CGPA (using all the grades from the bachelor's degree used as basis of admission)
- 10% based on academic context (average credit load per semester and completed post-bachelor鈥檚 degree education)听
The undergraduate CGPA is the major consideration in measuring academic performance. Graduate studies are taken into consideration in the academic context as well as in the review of your CV. Grades from graduate programs are not included in the GPA calculation.
Asynchronous Multiple Mini Interviews
Applicants invited for an interview will be interviewed using the multiple mini-interview (MMI) format. MMIs consist of multiple stations that can be task-oriented, simulation- or scenario-oriented or discussion-oriented. This year, they will be asynchronous. This means that applicants will be able to start and complete the interview on their own time anytime between 9am and 5pm on the day of the interview by recording their answers. The interview will last less than an hour and must be completed in one go.听
The interviews will be held virtually. It is your responsibility to be available for and to attend the interview time for which you have been scheduled. No repeat interview sessions or special accommodations will be arranged. A candidate who does not attend may have his or her application cancelled.
The interview is scheduled for early February.
For more information on the MMIs, you can refer to 平特五不中 Career Planning Service鈥檚 website.听
鈻� The date of the virtual interviews will posted in mid January 2025.

Final Selection
Following the MMI, the final ranking list for DMD applicants will be based mainly on the MMI score, but will also take into account applicants' academic score (GPA), and non-academic score (CASPer and CV).听
