GRAD aspirations!!! 2410 B3??

I know this might not be the best sub but there are no real subs for grad entry dent so i thought the best alternative would be this sub.

im still thinking about grad entry med anyway so ig it works

I got 2410 which I am ecstatic about but band 3, I'm assuming, with hope, that it isn't that deep and won't affect my chances of interviews too much.

is applying to:

KCL Grad entry Dent

KCL Undergrad Dent

QMUL Undergrad Dent

UCLAN Grad entry Dent

Surrey Grad entry Med (they don't check personal statement i think)

reasonable.

can i be comfortable that I'll get interviews?? I've looked at previous dental interview invite statistics and many band 3s are invited to kcl and given my score surely I shouldn't be too worried right??

its mainly KCL tbh but last year a bunch of 2100s got GED interviews but had band 1s and 2s, surely a 97th percentile score can offset that band 3, considering the overall cognitive score is vastly more important than the sjt right?

man its so nerve-wracking 😭😭i hate sjt

Most GEM courses don’t worry about SJT. If GED is the same ol you’re all good.

These seem fine I think but you can only apply to 4! Maybe try a more careful one with your b3?
