GAMSAT is death in disguise. One of the most horrid exams I've taken. English components were uni level so I got my ass handed to me. Luckily for me I did pretty well in the science section. I think I found you on FB lolz

Seriously I had no idea they even did that. There there. I will buy you a comfort coffee.

But he failed S2? I have a feeling people who score higher in S2 tend to do better in the interviews.

Is that even a thing?

Also some universities automatically don't give you an interview if one section is below 50. Not sure if UWS is one of those.

UWS and UNSW nope. Sorry to bust your hopes.

It will be very hard but it may be possible. You have to work overtime and not have a family!

Not that I know of. Guess you can only special consideration your marks at university but that is all. Not sure exactly what your situation is so it's hard to suggest anything that is helpful. 200k can be paid off in probably be paid off in 6-7 years if you're very frugal and manage your...

I have only heard of students applying during their HSC year for special consideration which resulted in them getting 99.95 equivalent ATAR. This lowered the threshold for their UMAT score for UNSW to 70%. I think rural schemes just give bonus points on top of their original ATAR. Not 100%...

Free EtOH at my place. It's so they don't get a tonne of calls from desperate students who think they got the wrong mark.

Depends on other factors more so than extracurricular. They don't look at extracurricular as heavily as UNSW or UWS. On a side note you need to learn how to message people properly and show common courtesy. Given you are young I will let it slide but if that's the representation you give in an...

1. Do what you like. But if you want to get a head start do physiology, anatomy etc. 2. You should really do what you like. There is no best degree. If you want to prep yourself for medicine it will be some sort of science. 3. 99.95+ or GTFO. I am not sure but arts/music might be slightly lower.

Science is basically a knowledge component. If you have studied the concept prior to the question you can skip 1/2-1 page of them explaining to you how the reaction works or the physiology of the heart. Given many people don't actually finish the test on time having knowledge is an important...

Lol it's not 99% any longer in urban. I've been speaking to Basic trainees and AT's and everyone is talking about the lack of end of tunnel jobs. How long do you have left?

Good I think this is a fair response but don't judge any job so generically because in every job there will always be individuals who will abuse their powers and privileges. Personally from my perspective I think unless you are a humanitarian and you are willing to dedicate your entirety to a...

Valid points but narrow perspective. I believe anyone can make a difference in any career given that they actually want to. Teachers providing lunch time tutoring for failing students, road engineers who make sure our roads are safe for us to travel on etc. Lawyers have a different set of...

What is TISC med?

Yeh east coast is different because it's in high demand. If you go out far in any of the other directions you should be fine as an interstate applicant. I know of quite a few people going Blacktown Hospital next year coming from interstate. This has also been true for other doctors in previous...

^Don't say it like louielouiee typed out word for word but I hope you get the point.

You are actually wrong with regards to employment outside of the state. Perth I believe is lacking junior doctors as with a few other cities. It will be harder to get a place at a major urban center in NSW (you will definitely get a job in a outer suburban hospital or regional/rural hospital)...
