Why only three? are they all GEP?

I've applied to kings GEP, Kings5yr, UCLan & Barts. So far I have an interview at kings for the five year program. Have you finished your degree or are you in final year?

They are the uni's that i'm interested in going to and are all GEP. I would have applied to a 5yr course but realistically I can't afford it. I finished my degree in the summer.

Well done on the King's interview, I had no idea they were sending out interviews so soon.

Lol sorry i should have mentioned - I'm doing my undergrad at kings and they do an internal screening application for only their own students during the summer, for the 5 year program only. I got an interview that way, so thought I would try my luck for the 4 year program.

Hello, I've sent mine off too! Really glad it's out of the way now. Just have to sit back & wait.
I've applied to Liverpool, King's & UClLan. How about yourself? :smile:

You could still potentially add Aberdeen ... it's a 4 year course too. :smile:

Finally submitted that damn personal statement. The Leeds open day personal statement workshop was very useful on Saturday!

Was really impressed with how modern dentistry at Leeds is and how professional all students were.

You REALLY didn't miss out on anything.
All the information provided was already available on their website.
And I second the comment about the depressing atmosphere.

Hi I am considering applying next year in which case I will get some dentist related work experience under my belt.

Can anyone give me a rough idea if I would stand a chance as I don't have a biology degree/A level?

me:

low 2.1 MChem from Oxford

A levels (pre A*) : A Chemistry A Physics A Maths A Furthermaths
As: B English Literature

GCSEs: 8A*s and 3 As

You'll definitely need some background in biology, to AS level at least. I suggest you enroll onto a Biology A-level course with a local college and self-study, whilst applying to dental school with a predicted grade.

If you look at the entry requirements for the dental courses, you'll see they want significant biology content in either your degree or alternatively an AS/A2 level in biology.
