UKCAT test

I'm in year 13 now but unfortunately I didn't achieve good enough results to apply for dentistry this year. I had already booked my ukcat test before finding out my AS results and I will be sitting it soon, both for practice (if I take a gap year I will have to sit it again anyway) and in case there are any clearing places being offered for dentistry. However I'm worried about getting a bad score which will look bad on my application as I feel like I need more practice. Does anyone know if its possible to sit my ukcat in June 2017 instead to apply for dentistry clearing for 2017 entrance? Also, although they don't advertise it, do Kings College or Queen Mary offer places for dentistry clearing? Thanks.

Why would you sit it if your not going to apply this year? Just cancel it and get your money back

Ah ok. I doubt they'll be any places in clearing ( could be wrong ) so your probably better off just focusing on your a-levels and then applying with your grades. I don't know about whether you could take the test next year tho, I don't think it would count as the same cycle
