    Hi Dr Yewande! I have a question about dentistry. I am in year 11 right now and for mocks I have received grade 7s for chemistry & biology and they were my lowest grades and because GCSEs are cancelled this year, mocks matters a lot. I do like science but it doesn't come naturally to me as I am a more of a 'English' person and do better in essay based subjects. However, I am interested in dentistry. What A level combination would open up more opportunities? I plan to do Biology, Chemistry and Psychology. Is that fine? Are my grades good enough? I was also interested in Optometry, is dentistry more competitive? Is medicine more competitive than dentistry? Sorry, I couldn't find your Instagram (it wasn't working). Thank you so much!

    • @kiran4078
      @kiran4078 3 года назад

      I'd say dentistry is more competitive than optometry, but medicine is more competitive than dentistry! & about your grades, you can look up individual university's grade requirements, most want specific grades for maths & engl, rather than science tbh, but defo research! I know UoB place emphasis on gcse's, but it'll differ.
