Boston is also a school I am looking into....Sorry I can't answer your question, but maybe you can tel me what the NBDE and the toefl is?

Thanks a lot
 
Ok, i think I understand what they mean. Are they the tests you have to write before you enter into dental school or after (when you go out into the real world)? Also, would I have to write such a test if I apply from Canada to an american dental school?


Thanks

If they state 250 is the minimum score and you have 247 then no you can't apply...schools are very strict about this,
If you look in their faq section on the boston university website, it clearly states
that even if you have 249 on the toefl you can't apply.

Retake your toefl ASAP. that's my advice
 
250 is minimum they will not even call u for an interiew if u have less than that...
retake the eexam ASAP... u still got time..

92 IS A GREAT SCORE, RETAKE TOEFL,AND I'M SURE U CAN SCORE MORE THAN 250.
GOOD LUCK !!!
