A2 Pre-clinical dentistry course codes

By UCAS's old subject scheme, a course code starting A2 means pre-clinical dentistry, in the medicine and dentistry area (A). 42 courses at 21 UK universities use one for 2027 entry: most ask for between 48 and 128 UCAS points; 7 courses quote A-level grades instead, most often AAA. Another 24 joint honours courses carry A2 as their second subject.
