hey guys! congrats on getting offers, if anyone has any questions about the course feel free to msg me at helpfultoothfairy, on instagram, im currently finishing my first year !

and if anyone has received rejections, try not to be so disheartened, I know it's hard! But, when I received my 5/5 rejections I just thought of it as a redirection and managed to change up my application for my next cycle where I got 4/5 offers!

4 years dental nursing and an access course :smile:

Have you already completed the access course? Was it in science? If you've already completed the course, do you mind telling me what you got? Thank you :smile:

Not yet I'll be finished in late May, so far I've got all distinctions in biology and psychology and a mix of merits and distinctions in chemistry.
I think they look at so much more then grades though, I have lots of varied and relevant experience. I've worked within NHS, private, prisons, specialists and I'm doing charity work with dentaid. Outside of work I compete in eventing and volunteer within my sport.

Oh wow okay, I'm glad they look at more than grades. I'm currently doing an Access to Science course, I'm also due to finish around May . I've got a mix of distinctions and merits in biology, chemistry and physics. However I got one pass in my first ever unit which was in biology which I'm really stressed about tbh.

Anybody else applied for DHT through an access course, but has got one pass in a unit (pass 3 credits worth)? Stressing Uni's will reject me because of it

I've been rejected from 4/5 uni's so far, all without an interview - just waiting on KCL. Has anyone heard back from them yet?
Applied to Portsmouth, QMU, Bristol and Essex for the others.
With Portsmouth and Essex they said it was my personal statement (which I though was very good) - to those that got interviews, what kind of things did you mainly mention? Also really hated what Essex done with offering a completely different course and not rejecting outright.
QMU their reason was increased competition, was very non-specific so could've been anything.
Bristol was the SAQ.

And also would love to hear from anyone that got a place through clearing without having had any interviews!

For those who haven’t heard back yet from Brum, does this mean that it will be after April 2nd? Since it’s bank holiday tomorrow and on Monday

I think they’ve sent all the offers out now. They’ll probably leave the rejections last min like they did with the people they rejected pre interview.
