Re: Umat Pushy parents, if you really don't wana do med or another health science don't do it, unless u just wana keep ur options open or somthin.

I think it's C. Don't have time to explain atm, please attach the answer as a spoiler later.

They could i know one interviewer personally and she did ask that and alot of general questions, to form a judgement of the student. NO it is only 95 or 93 or GWS if you have not completed a year of study. I presume ur applying again this year applications are due in and assessed before the...

NO everyone is interviewed the same and the interviewer's don't know what your doing. Unless the ask, etc. But they will ask the typical why do you want to do medicine questions that's when you redeem yourself! Non-standards, have a different entry criteria if they have completed a year of...

Yeah your GPA will be taken into account 50%UAI/50%GPA depending on the uni. If you get all D's next semester your GPA will be 5.125 equiv to a rank of 73.214 combined with ur uai of 95.5 it will be an equiv rank of 84.35. Depending on the uni you apply for. All uni's for non-standards take into...

UMAT can only be taken if your in your final year of high school study i.e. yr 12. Thus you must be ur 10th UAI counting unit in the year you wish to sit umat or the year that you expect to recieve a uai. Please refer to ACER UMAT Booklet: 2.2 "Candidates registering for UMAT2008 should have...

Dw, esp if your currently doing chem 1 this semester. Also alot of the units don't have pre-req you could go and do an advanced language unit with no preq's and fail. No one would care and be responsible for that though, it's UWS it doesn't have alot of safe guards for n00b students esp with all...

You have to apply as a non-standard applicant i.e. non school leaver like everyone one else. No the interviewer's don't know what your doing but they could always ask! Meh, I doubt that they will be that prejudicial i was going to do B. Arts and grad medicine before cause doing a non-science...

^^^ If you were more organised you should of sat it earlier this year, then you would of had the possiblility to resit it later on this year if you recieved a poor result. Guess you'll have to wait untill the new uac guide is released to find out the next set of dates for stat are released...

Most do, JCU is the only one that doesn't unless you have a very very strong reason to i.e. family illness, etc off the top of my head.

He's resorting to visiting schools now, geez. No there not necessary. Face2face is run by 3 med students, some of there material is good bit's of it are dodgy though. Also they didn't teach how do alot of questions properly, etc.

You could def get into medical science with those marks depends where though, if you work abit hader and get over 90 and do well in STAT you've got a shot at B.Pharmacy at CSU Orange. If worse comes to worse you could always do Med Sci at UWS :D

I guess since the school qualifies for the regional bonus, as I presume it's in the Greater Western Sydney area.

Yeah, i know how it feels, last year i was screwed over I had 3 teachers away around trial and Hsc time.

Umat prep companies *sigh*

Oh God, that stuff stinks!!!

Re: UMAT Registration Err. Grammar!

Re: No more DFEE!? For CSP places the uni's pretty much only get given the cost price of your course, they uni makes up for the short fall by having so many DFEE and international DFEE spots, Rudds plan is to scrap DFEE and pay the uni for the lost DFEE places.

Depends, on the person really, i know alot of people who have done well without umat prep courses.

You'll need to get an "Rule Waiver Request"form filled by your unit or subject co-ordinator to overload(form must be collected/given to the student centre for processing), i don't suggest doing this unless your really confident you can pass all ur units.
