Dentistry gcse entry

Hi all,
I will keep this brief...
Gcses- 9998876665
I am top of my class in chem and bio and doing well at maths too, Never get below 85% so will probably be predicted A* A* A and epq - A

I am concerned because, for example, Manchester uni requires 7 gcses at 7 or above and I only have 6. Will all other dentistry courses also realistically expect this, therefore do I have any chance of getting in with low GCSES??

I could always resit fm gcse to get a 7th above a 7?

Thanks 😊

This document has an excellent summary of the latest entry guidelines for dentistry courses, so have a good look through it. I believe dentistry is like medicine in that all unis require slightly different things for entry.
