    definites for dentistry at cardiff sept 2012
    hi,

    thought it might be a good idea to start chatting with people who will be doing dentistry at cardiff so we know each other a bit before starting studying particularly for me because i'm not living in uni accommodation, i'll be commuting every day

    so if cardiff is your firm or if you're definitely going (had results already like me) let's get chatting!

    I had AAB and a 2.1, i've heard that rumour but i'm not sure how true it is. I have not seen it written in any of their admissions criteria and it was never mentioned in the interview, but it might be true so give them a call and ask.

    It makes sense that they pick welsh students there is more chance of us staying in wales to practice, UCLAN favour people from their area it states it on their website.

    yea but cardiff says that each case is treated on its own merits so it doesnt matter where you come from, they just want the best
