Im really wanting to study Dentistry at Manchester! Unfortunately I have been ill over the last two years and have had to retake this year, and therefore apply next year! Im doing Work experience this year though so it hopefully won't be a wasted year. In my AS I got Chem: A
Physics: B (7 UMS of an A and I got a D in my ISA so hoping to bring that up)
Biology: B

My GCSE's are 1A* 5A 2B 1C



I don't know if my illness and grades will hold me back :/

Just so I understand, are you retaking the A2 year or AS year?

And honestly the Manchester admission tutor is lovely. They will consider your mitigating circumstances, just make sure you mention them in your PS, or write them a letter alongside your application, or ask your referee to mention them. Also make sure you meet all the other minimum requirements such as GCSE, work experience, caring voluntary work etc.

I'm here if you need any advice just pm me :smile:
Only applied myself this year but I'm more than happy to help!

Manchester has started to give out their top 60 offers. My cousin applied and got an offer the day before yesterday :-)

Teresa didn't say anything like that at my interview nor do I see any disadvantage of people telling other people if they have received offers.

Same! She must of said that to the people who have offers. I presume the people who know this are the ones with offers?

I'm sure it was said on the interview day, just out of courtesy to the rest of us who haven't got interviews so we're not sat here all depressed

Nothing was said to me at my interview. But I think the 60 offers might go to people who already have AAA. I think they'd be unconditional, not too sure though. Either way, if you don't have an interview you still have a shot as there's a second batch of interviews in February. And if you haven't got an offer there's still hope as you haven't been rejected yet either! So fingers crossed guys!
