BDS Admissions Statisitcs
Dear King's College London,
I am writing to you in regards to your BDS Dentistry course.
I wish to enquire
A) How many offer holders were there in total in 2018 or 2019? (Not including graduates)
B) What are the UKCAT and GCSEs scales exactly, what percentage weighting is given to each of them?
C) What are the list of secondary schools for which you would count the A’s for, as well as A*’s when calculating the percentage weighting for GCSE’s (aka, below average schools)?
D) How many offer holders had less then 2A* at GCSE?
E) What are the MMIs out of, and what was the average score required in 2018 and 2019?
F) What percentage of applicants with a UCAT score of 750+ at interview are rejected prior to interview?
G) What factors are included in your ‘Widening Participation Factors’ and how much weightage do these factors hold when choosing applicants for interviews?
Yours faithfully,
R Kiani

Thank you for your response.
May I also ask, how many people with less than 2A* in GCSE were offered an interview in 2018 and 2019? Also, how many students resitting their A levels were given an offer in 2018 and 2019?
Apologies for the extra inconvenience.
Yours sincerely,
