Yess a contrasting subject not two.. With competition levels at what they are it would be advised to take maths, especially to aid chemistry and even biology.

No!

It's a common myth; have a look here: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/wiki/Medical_Application_Myth_Busting

And chemistry A-Level is fine without A-Level maths, as is biology (you only really need GCSE maths in both). It's only at uni where you really need maths for chemistry.

7 A*'s, 4 A's and a B... couldn't be much happier :smile:

(Well, you could always change that B to an A but meh!)

Would be interesting to see if Oxbridge accepted those kinds of results though :/

I got 3A*'s and 7As :biggrin:

but my school don't want me to do biology A-level as I 'only' got an A!? Apparently statistically I'm not likely to get higher than a D, so annoyed!

No way...like do not listen to them. If you work hard in A levels itll work out. And great results :biggrin:

Hey everyone I got 7 A*/A grades today for my GCSEs (including English and Science) along with 2 Bs (one being Maths) and a C. Would this be good enough for me to apply to dentistry?

They require chemistry and one other laboratory based science subject. Maths and further maths are not accepted as a combination though, so they wouldn't count as separate subjects. Check out our A Level medicine requirements page for more info! :smile:
