No, left it blank. I've already obtained a biomedical science degree. Did you put anything down?

I think it's normal to worry, but let's all try remember we're only a week and two days after the deadline. It'll be fine!

If I'm honest, I didn't enjoy biomedical science. In hindsight, I wish I had put down BSc Dental Hygiene and Therapy or BSc Oral Health Sciences, which allows you to be a 'simple' dentist and you still have the option to go for a graduate entry. And the job prospects are better than biomedical science.

If you want to go down that route, don't do the diploma because that won't be accepted for graduate entry. You need to have a BSc. :smile:

Congrats dude,I had mine this time last year from Bham. Try not to be too nervous or they'll pick upon it and scrutinize you. I kind of messed it up with regards to the random ethical questions they pulled out, but hopefully you'll be fine.

Well done! Was it by email? Did you include your UKCAT on the UCAS form?

Leeds

They haven't given any information about it on their website, but at the open day the admissions tutor said that the interview process will last several hours, it will be challenging and made to make you feel under pressure. There will be 10 stations, and your manual dexterity skills will be tested at at least one of the stations.
