I wanna do dentistry can anyone share their stories (if you have offers/are in uni)?

Sheffield only accept AAB if you do an EPQ in a relevant subject - is this your plan?
If you think you’re eligible for widening participation, make sure to carefully check each university’s criteria as they’re different.

As for the stories you want to hear, what do you want to know?

Hi, i want to do dentistry and am applying this year! hopefully, i will do well in my ucats. My predicted grades are around AAB. I really want to go to Sheffield! it's like my dream uni! i am not the smartest i guess and I just wanted to hear stories of people that have offers or is doing dentistry.At times I don't feel good enough but I have a huge passion and am willing to take the risk and apply!

Hey!
If Dentistry is your passion then you will find a way to do it, even if it's not the route you initially planned!
Firstly you need to be smart about where you apply, have a look at the different universities and if you don't meet their minimum requirements, unfortunately they will most likely reject you. Sometimes if you had an offer and slightly missed it they might still give you the place however, if you don't meet their initial requirements to begin with then that's unlikely. Something that's worth looking into is a contextual offer, universities may lower their offer for you if you meet their requirements (e.g. live in a certain area).

Here's a tool that may help you compare different dental schools:

Good luck with your UCAT, let me know if you have any further questions

Hi, I applied for dentistry this year and I have an offer for dentistry at Newcastle so feel free to ask me about any parts of the application process.

Thanks!
