Here are two forums I found on Wikipedia, while conducting a search for something else, incidentally:

medstudentsonline.com --> http://www.medstudentsonline.com/for...ex.php?act=idx

Aus Med Schools --> http://www.newmediamedicine.com/foru...play.php?f=136 (note: very small but hey)

Please view www.medstudnesonline.com/forums is the most comprehensive and most helpful forum for prospective health science, dentistry and medical studnets.

[:::a:::]

which Universities do not use UMAT results, preferrably within the eastern side of Australia - e.g. NSW QLD VIC etc..

and what do they base their entry on?

[katie tully]

They all use UMAT?

[Wooz]

Undergrad med: JCU does not use umat, Usyd does not use umat for it's prvisional entry scheme but you must have ascertained a uai of 99.95+ or equivalent.

Exceptions apply for indigenous, international students, etc in certain cases.

USYD doesn't use UMAT because it's Grad Med, yeah?

They have a provisional entrance scheme for a combined course for yr 12 students it's essentially is graduate but they are almost given a guarentee of entry, UQ, ANU, etc also have one. Usyd is the exception as it does not use umat nor require gamsat for their provisional scheme.

No GAMSAT is the test for graduate medicine, i.e. you must have completed or are in your final year of completion of an undergraduate course, etc. It is a test based on university level science, two essays, science and humanities MCQ's, etc.
