Can i do Dentistry

I didn't do as good as i had originally hoped at GCSE. I got 1A*, 3A's and 7B's. I want to do Dentistry at Kings College preferably but also another uni that i fit the entry requirements for.

I want to get :
AAAA in Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Business Studies. I have revised a lot recently and am doing very well class as well as attending after school sessions. These grades will give the rpedcitons of A*A*A* at A2.

If i get a really high UKCAT (780 or more) Plus all my volunteering, Work experience at a dentist, Medical practice and a Hospital. Do i stand a chance of getting an offer?|
Yes you do stand a good chance. Be sure to build a lot of diverse experiences, and be sure to show what you have learned from them and how that helps to strengthen you for the role of one day being a dentist. Keep up the good work and you'll have a great chance!
I want to do dentistry as well at Birmingham uni, my home town, and my GCSE grades weren't great either. Cried for three days straight lol.

Are you a brummy? Yeah its my first year at sixth form going okay so far.
Hey guys, I was wondering if you think I have any chance of getting into dentistry.
My gcse grades are 2a* 6 as and 2bs (maths and french)
hoping to get AAAa in 3 sciences and economics.
Providing I get gd ukcat score and do work experience, do i stand any chance of getting in? Or will i have to apply abroad to have any chance of doing dentistry at all.

I have had this "dream" of becoming a dentist so I'm going for dentistry if things turn out well. You do stand a chance just make sure to smash your a levels and do loads of work experience. You might not get into the top unis but you will have a chance in other unis. Plus my plan B is pharmacy and you do know you can apply for 5 courses when applying to uni? Do you mind if its abroad?
