    unless you are really really bright i'd say it would be unlikely you would achieve the grades in biology and chemistry without affecting your other subjects.

    You could have a crack at those subjects as an external student and drop some other subject in school if that would be allowed.

    If dentistry is all you want you have nothing to lose by going for it with the chem and biology. At least you will have the courses completed if you need to repeat

    If you did dentistry in trinity you could do agricultural science and the 'physics and chemistry' combined exam

    'physics and chemistry' is supposed to be the pass elements of the 2 single courses.

    ag science is supposed to be easier than biology but you have to do a project

    you would need a HB3 and HC3 in the above
