Biomedicine too risky ?

It's a question posed to the 2nd year cohort about what they planned to do after finishing their degree and although not everyone responded, it's still (relatively) accurate.

Sorry if this is off topic, but after completeing biomed can you undertake PG Dentistry??
If so what kind of results would you need? And in terms of difficulty, would it be harder to get into PG dentistry or PG med?
Russ:
You can apply to PG Dentistry from any undergraduate degree, so yes. I never really had an interest in dent but it uses the GAMSAT, so you'd need to do that + GPA + interview.
I know there are less places than med but I'm not sure that that translates into a harder entry.

Yes you can under PG Dentistry after biomed.
The prerequisites are the same for dentistry and medicine.
Quota for DDS: 90
Quota for MD: 330
So I say you need higher results for Dentistry than for Med.
But probably more people go for med so it somewhat balances out a bit.

Oh ok i never realised that there biomed has many alternative pathways, thanks :)

No you don't need an interview for DDS.

DDS is obviously more competitive. 50 places will be domestic and 40 will be international. At least 50% of the domestic are CSP, that's 25 places and 5 of this will be reserved for Grad Access (like SEAS). Then there's the other 25 (or less depending on govt funding) that are domestic full-fee
