I really want to study dentistry but i also know how competitive it is. Im on a gap year at the moment as i have to resit 2 a-levels, and i just sat my UCAT and got a score of 1990 band 1 which i know isn’t competitive for dentistry. I tried really hard and i thought i would have achieved a better score considering this is my second time taking the exam. My GCSEs are 9888888877L2D. My grades for alevels are an achieved A in maths, A in my EPQ and B’s in both bio and chem. However i will obviously be applying with predicted grades for bio and Chem of A*’s. I would say my personal statement is looking a lot stronger this year with more work experience, volunteering and charities I’ve started. I really dont want to have to take another gap year but i dont even think ill get interviews with this UCAT score and also considering the fact im resitting.
