Not good to be so uptight if you want you be a dentist.

Does anyone have any idea as to how much emphasis King's place on UKCAT scores?
Would a good degree classification override a poor UKCAT result?

My UKCAT wasn't great (I don't recall it being greater than 650), but I got a decent degree grade, so this could indicate they didn't rely 100% on UKCAT for our year.

Not very well at all.
I had my pre-reg exam which was my priority. That then left me with 3 days to revise.

I applied to Liverpool with (2a* 4a 3b 1c) and got an interview @ Liverpool. I didn't apply to UCLAN. Hope that helps.

Thats what they require anyway. They say that you must have at least 2 A's in A-level, if you dont then 5 A's at GCSE

Ahh sorry, my bad, I thought it would be much higher than that. I should have checked before posting. Although surely 2As @ Alevel is much more difficult than 5As @ GCSE? Good luck with your application :smile:
