yes but they may not be as so slack to actually charge it as a postgrad. degree considering they made the students do another degree first.

04 entries all are HECS but griffith

UNI UMAT UAI Interview Places%
melb 280+ 96-100 no 60

adel 200 * 90+ yes # 40

WA 200 * 90+ yes # 40(?)

griffith new 96+ yes 32
(QLD)(full fee only)

mean for UAI into dent is lik 97-98.. nationally

$- these no. are a bit unreliable
Melb has 3 streams

*-Sum of the UMAT percentiles so lik 70ish for 3 sections is good
but the higher the better .. the UMATs usualli determine weather u get an interview

For uni of melb, there are 3 streams- UMAT, UAI , UAI+UMAT..

I do not accept responisbility for any info here.. im already in med.. sif i care if u get in :D

sorri the $ was suppose to represent the things im not to clear about..

Like the places at each uni.. i think im off by a bit.. but thats for u to research..

note those were HECS places..
im not sure bout local fee paying..

in griffith..its 3 years HECS.. b of oral health in dental sci/ M dentistry.. in total over 5 years its $98K ( hecs+full fee) cos its a part undergrad and part post grad.. but auto entry..

ohhh... so you have to pay for the full fee in the last 2 years? Dentistry must have high competition... Griffith isnt in group 8 though-it wont afect employment afterwards would it ?
