Dentistry requirements

Is it possible to get into dentistry at latrobe with an ATAR just below 99?
And i was checking the latrobe dentistry page and noticed that selection is based on a range of criteria including a personal statement, which i did not complete.. does that mean i have no chance of getting in? Help would be appreciated!

I heard school leavers generally need 99.x to get in from previous years. But you should still apply, hopefully see you there next year! If not, you should opt for an internal transfer route which is a little less competitive imo, especially if you choose subjects you are good at.

I was reading around medstudentsonline, and apparently personal statements aren't needed for year 12 leavers. So you're fine not having one
