    pathway to get into medicine without UMAT score atm

    I don't like the term transfer. It requires you to reapply and do everything a school leaver would do UMAT, interview etc. Even with a high distinction average they will only count that was a 99 ATAR which would put you at a disadvantage. I had a student with HD average, 97% UMAT (I think)...

    JCU Med

    Heard average ATAR of entry was around 98 so you will be at a slight disadvantage just based on ATAR.

    Specialisation

    By hard I mean it's not a walk in after med school. Compared to other jobs it is probably easy. Given the competition with other exceptional individuals and the 1k+ doctors graduating per year. There isn't enough spots for jobs. Therefore, it is hard.

    Specialisation

    You pretty much need a master's now to get a consultant job (most hired consultants now only work part time). It's not super hard getting into the program right now compared to the more competitive specialities but will probably get worse soon. You need to publish and kiss ass. There will always...

    Doing medicine with a potential fear of blood

    Some people grow out of it. Some people don't. You won't just be looking at cannulation in the future. You will be involved in trauma cases, bleed outs and you will see things much worse than blood. I saw someone with a huge pressure ulcer which almost eroded a huge hole in his gluteus maximus...

    Your thought process has to be detailed and not just superficial. They don't care exactly what you say as long as it makes logical sense and there there is a structure to it. At the end of the day there are many ways to answer the given question. Yeh generally judgement doesn't matter albeit in...

    Interview Attire?

    If it looks professional it's fine. No one is going to critically analyze your fashion sense as long as it's professional.

    Interview Questions?

    Not really straight forward in my opinion. There are so many ways you can answer this question. Let me give you a taste of what could be said: 1. Does having the disability early affect the child more than later? 2. What is the extent of the disability? Certain disabilities will not be as...

    UWS vs UNSW interview dates

    I would say most people would be in your position so the chances of being able to do that are slim. UWS personal questions can be answered in the same way as those at UNSW but everything else will be different.
