Cardiff Uni Dentistry opinion?

Hey guys
I’m very stuck between Cardiff and Birmingham unis for dentistry- I have an offer from both but don’t know which one to firm.

Please please could any current students or alumni tell me about their experiences, either briefly or in detail?

Eg. Do you think the teaching is strong?
Do/did you feel ready/competent to graduate?
Did you feel supported throughout?
What’s your favourite/least favourite thing about it?

You don’t have to answer all or even any of the questions, just some thoughts would be very helpful.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE this would help me out so much!!

All dental unis will leave you confident to start your dental career.

I would choose on location and the vibe you got when you visited them

Another thing to think about is whether there is fluoride in the water in Cardiff. One of my dentists studied at Birmingham and they had to travel elsewhere to get experience with children's teeth. Unfortunately this isn't a problem in Newcastle where my daughter is!
