I am not sure how many people Bristol's gateway to dentistry course accepts. Does anyone know?

Not good news. I just had an interview yesterday with Bristol. I asked them how many more interviews are remaining, and they said they've given then all out already :frown: I would look for a backup just in case...Look into dental nursing ?

biomed is quite competitive too and if you're scared to get into dentistry then biomed will be pretty similar and u need to apply after ur degree and that can be harder so maybe nursing?
So If i dont have the best GCSE grades but good A levels ,is it okay if i do biomed then dentistry postgraduate , do I become a dentist after
Hi i have the exact same problem. my gcse grades aren’t good enough but i’m predicted A’s for a level. so i’m either going to do biomed/biochem and then dentistry postgrad. or i apply for Gateway dentistry at bristol but idk if ill get in. what are your plans now ?
