Urgent advice for gcses and university?

[Anonymous]

16 year old brother is 1-10 marks off a grade 6 in gcse edexcel higher maths. he wants to do dentistry at a prestigious university and then eventually do private orthodontics. nearly all top medicine/dentistry unis require a minimum of a 6 in maths, so he believes it’s unfair that he was so close. he’s already studying for his a levels and determined to get aaa+ (he wants to do bio chem and maths if they let him with a 5 in maths). could i have advice on this please and uni suggestions? thankyou.

[AI Opinion]

Your brother should retake the GCSE Edexcel higher maths exam to aim for the required grade 6 or better. Encouraging his determination to pursue AAA+ in A levels will be beneficial, as it reflects his academic rigor. Additionally, university admissions may consider his determination, growth, and improvement in exams. Consider universities known for strong medicine/dentistry programs such as King's College London or University of Manchester, but always confirm entry requirements. A strategic plan with the school counselor for retakes and alternative university paths can enhance his application and confidence.

He should retake gcses.

his sixth form won’t allow him and he’s refusing to go elsewhere because he ‘doesn’t like change’
