Chat am I cooked (kcl dent)?

I've applied to KCL dentistry
My GCSE's are 999988888
My UCAT is 2910 Band 2
But my teachers hate me and only predicted me AAA in Biology, Chemistry and Maths.
Would I be straight up rejected because of my predicted or is there a chance of me getting invited for interview but given an offer of A*AA???
Please let me know🙏🙏🙏

Why what’s wrong with their application? It looks really good! Great GCSEs and a good UCAT

The predicted grades are the problem

Have you talked to all your teachers about increasing your predicted grade?

I would suggest speaking with your teachers, this seems very unfair. Not as bad as my friends college where they don't even tell you your predicted grades 🤦🏽*♀️

Rejected, why are you even applying. Go apply for pharmacy or medicine or something

Crazy thing is that my biology teacher agreed to move it to an A* but my head of section is the one that puts the grades into UCAS. And he's refusing to give me an A* because he says that AAA is all that i need. It's so peak but there's nothing i can do and I can't even complain because he's in charge of my entire application - it just feels like an abuse of power atp😞😞

UCAT is too high for them to not give you an interview! Don’t worry
