Hey ... So I am a Canadian student who happens to study in a non-Canadian dental school. I am almost done my second year of my dent school and I will be writing my NBDE part 1 the coming Feburary (2018). I was wondering about research opportunities because I would love to get into an OMFS program after graduating my GPA is 3.6 but my school is tough so my ranking is 9 (250 students in my year) and I will be doing my CBSE third year. However, OMFS is very competitive and I know just one year of internship added to my resume won't be enough. So, I was thinking of doing research starting this summer. The issue is I am so out of the research world and especially back home in Canada. If anyone in Canada who has done research can help me out:
1- What did you do to get a research position?
2- How many have you done so far and where?
3- Is it possible for me to get one knowing that I am enrolled in a non-Canadian dental school?
on the OMFS part
1- What would be a good score to accompany what I have told you so far?
2- USA vs Canada would be more likely to accept me (realistic )?


Thank you guys and if you can answer one of the questions then go for it please don't have to answer all <3
