You need to be in finance, insurance, or Law in the UK to make money.

Most people who work in insurance companies are povertycels.

I’m talking mainly about actuaries and underwriters

A*AA, bro idk if youre really interested in dentistry or if its family pressure or what, but i would never reccommend dentistry. the best degrees are computer science and economics by far. ideally from oxford, cambridge, UCL, bristol, warwick, durham, LSE (for econ), imperial (for comp sci). if you are even remotely interested in or good at either of those then do one of those two. its literally half the time spent in education to end up earning more money than a doctor or dentist.

i would only do dentistry or medicine if you are going to america to do it, but im pretty sure they are postgraduate degrees in america so you cant anyway

i dont know the job titles but comp sci is the 2nd highest paying degree behind economics, also plenty of tradespeople and trade business owners make more money than people in finance and law, especially because of the really long career path in law

I've heard the opposite for comp sci at least I've heard that the job market is shite and that you can barely find jobs due to the amount of people studying it and idk what you can do with an economy degree, my cousin has one and works in a field unrelated to it, also yes it's partially family pressure and partially apparently there's Hella Ps in dent

economics is the highest paying degree bro. econ is how you become a banker, financial advisor, investment manager etc. which are all higher paying with a quicker career path than doctor or dentist, also (especially for financial advisor) they are generally less stressful. comp sci is competitive if you dont have it from a good uni, all the ones i mentioned have 80%+ employment rate after graduation. im getting all this from telegraph degree tracker btw in case youre wondering.

and there isnt actually that much money in dentistry, unless you go to america like i mentioned before. most of the time you will be slaving away for the nhs and if you practice privately insurance will take like 70% of your money, the only very high paying medical professionals in the uk are specialist surgeons which takes like 20+ years.

you need a blackpill shoved down your throat if you think getting accepted into a good school trumps your appearance.
insanely over.
