Hi all,
I’m 31 and have always wanted to study dentistry.
Looking to now start my journey and get into the profession. I am looking for fellow mature students who are also starting their journeys to study dentistry. Ideally looking for 2023 or 2025 entry to university.
Looking to build a support group, to find out what paths people are taking, how your finding your journey. Tips and tricks for interviews or ucat.
I did my GCSEs I have 2As 6Bs and 1 C
English language b, science BB mathematics C. This was back in 2006.
Now I’m looking to do A levels or access? First dilemma. If I do a levels I have to do GCSEs first. As my GCSEs were years ago and no college in London will accept GCSEs taken in 2006. Or I will have to sit an exam from the College to get into the a level course. But as you can imagine I last studied science and math in 2006, 16 years ago, I would not pass. I don’t remember a thing.
I know of one college offering the gcse course I need, it’s 2 hours away from me. Second dielemma, where can I study a full time gcse course for adults at a reasonable cost?
I need a b in math gcse, so would still need to do math gcse.
Access, most universities accept access to medicine. It’s hard to pin point if the university will accept the college access to medicine course I pick, just because the College calls the course access to medicine by varying names, like access to biomedical but has a medicine pathway etc.
Get in touch, let me know if you have any suggestions or just let me know your back story and difficulties.
