Hello
This is my story. I came to the States from South America and graduated with a bachelors in science. I started w a 2.2 my freshman year but the last 2 years I worked really hard and raised my GPA to a 3.1. I have applied twice to dental school here in the states an both years I got interviewed but not accepted.
I am looking now at possibly attending dental school in the UK for a change, but I do not know the process over there. I have found couple threads and things online, but they have been insufficient. The grading scale is different and the courses description is different. I know I have to apply through UCAS but it says that the applications are closed.
How does this work ? When can I start applying. I know that some schools offer a year of pre dental. The terms in the applications and in general in the website are quite confusing and different than what we use here in the states. Could anyone please enlighten me and help me through this process ? I don't want to give up my dreams of going to dental school and I really want to go to the UK , but I feel stuck.
Thank you.
