this ammendment needs to be changed to 4000 hrs. Also this wait is killin moi :frown:


Yeah I agree! the general consensus is 1000 hours each year for 5 years but the UK dental school have proven that a previous degree is significant enough to reduce the hours required to qualify a dentist of the same standard. Had a long conversation with the women at peninsula and she says she doesn't see the amendments being accepted as they are but change is definitely needed.

I've applied to Cardiff (straight rejection) King's and Bart's. Just got an email from King's saying that they plan to continue the four year course but that there is a chance that it will become a 5 year course as it progresses if these amendments are passed. What about you?

ye im stunned at whats going on at the moment with this eu legislation, adds to the stress and uni's are taking their time in getting back to us.
Iv applied to bham, peninsula, liverpool and uclan. Not heard a word from liverpool though so wonder whats going on there but the rest of them are taking their time in getting back to those that have been interviewed :frown:
