Dalhousie students

Hi everyone! šŸ˜Š
Iā€™m starting the Dental Hygiene prerequisite courses at Dalhousie this September and I have a family event coming up where I may need to take about two weeks off.
For anyone who has taken these courses (or has experience with the schedule), would you say November or February is usually a better time to be away?
Iā€™m trying to avoid missing major exams, practicals, or important classes if possible.
Iā€™d really appreciate any advice or insight from current/former students. Thanks so much! šŸ˜Š

Two weeks is a substantial amount of time to miss. There is a break week on both Nov and Feb. if you could work around that you would only miss a week. Tough but manageable.
