Which one is easier?

Basically, if you don't do well in ATAR you must do some science course and get like HD then do GAMSAT to get in med right?

If you do well in UMAT and bad in ATAR you need to do redo UMAT?

You don't actually need a very high GPA, most are around 3.5 (half way between credit>distinction)..

I suppose it would be harder to achieve this in 2nd/3rd years (I only know from 1st year).

GAMSAT is for postgraduate

UMAT is for undergraduate

So different unis take each.

If you do well in UMAT and 'bad in ATAR' redoing UMAT would achieve nothing, unless say for example your idea of a 'bad ATAR' is 98, instead of 99, where a higher UMAT score might get you interviewed with 98.

I'm not really sure what you are asking, so I hope I have answered your question.
