does kcl care about gcses that much??

im in year 12 doing bio, psychology and history
could i apply to kcl to do dentistry
i know they require 6s in english lang and maths , i will resit them next summer hopefully
but will the rest of my grades be alright
7766665
bare in mind this is without maths and english lang as i have to resit to at least get 6s (will probably get 9s)

KCL dental admissions put the most emphasis on grades (including GCSEs) and UCAT. Not sure if they even accept GCSE resits (unless these are CAGs, then that’s a different story).

Without A Level predictions and UCAT score it’s difficult to predict but you’re GCSEs are relatively weak.
