Re: Bachelor of Medical Sciene Griffith Univeristy 2015 (MD-Provisional Entry for Lea Nathan doesn't have a medicine program, so the undergrads at Nathan will eventually have to move down to the GC to commence their med degree. If you're not originally from Brisbane, then it might as well be...

I'm sure we all agree that cost-cutting is the last thing we want to hear from any government especially with regards to healthcare, but that does not necessarily mean that we should absolve ourselves from scrutinising and evaluate the efficiency of the current system. As I said before, I think...

Fair point, and yeah, I guess the biggest problem with that would be a much greater potential not to detect serious illnesses from trivial illnesses as you said. Having said that, of course doctors make mistakes here and there but the more training you have the less likely you'll make such...

Based on anecdotal evidence and my own observations, I feel that nowadays GPs are primarily (of course not always) treating patients either for flu or depression, and just being the first point of contact either to 1) prescribe medication or 2) refer to a specialist. This system is inefficient...

Joe Hockey's budget plan for 2015 was released today (Tuesday 12 May 2015). You can find out more here at http://www.budget.gov.au/. Opinions everyone? Please be sensible :)

Re: Bachelor of Medical Sciene Griffith Univeristy 2015 (MD-Provisional Entry for Lea Hey :) Brisbane student here as well, might be able to help you out a bit. That's definitely not true, Griffith was definitely lying. I know a fair bit of people who didn't get as high of the scores as you...

It seems that you got a 99.90 ATAR (is this right?)...why didn't you choose Melbourne Uni Medicine?

I'm in a situation whereby I can accept to study Griffith Med in the GC and risk being bonded if I end up being in the bottom 25% of the cohort, Or apply for 2nd round offers for UQ Med but definitely bonded (my UMAT is good enough for bonded but just missed out on unbonded places) Which would...

^Thanks too for the quote, will make sure i click the right buttons on the 21st!

Thanks so much Sirable1, feeling more reassured now, although can't be too complacent at the same time!

Thank you! I didn't know they indicate vacancies - will be helpful indeed. If Advanced Science has no vacancies my Plan B would be to enrol in a Bachelor of Science (as 2nd preference for 2nd round offers) and then transfer to Advanced science within USyd's faculty of science.

Gold Coast has really new facilities, as well as a nice university hospital next to the campus - so should have sufficient opportunities! The only catch is that, while there is provisional entry to Med at Griffith, the bottom 25% [percentile] of the cohort will have to be bonded (even if they...

To clarify: I am planning to reorder my preferences for the 2nd round and let go of the UNCLE offer - so before I do so, I would like to know the risk I am taking...

Hey guys, so somehow I structured my UAC preferences really poorly such that I have a high chance of getting into UNCLE instead of USyd for my main round offers (for a particular course). I've now changed my mind - now I'm hoping to do a Bachelor of Advanced Science at USyd instead. Assuming I...
