I replied to your question in your other thread... but it is probably easier to get a good GAMSAT score with as BSc as opposed to a BOH.

ATAR/PQA/inteview are weighted equally. If you really want to do it, there's a good chance you will get in. Generally, there is no scaling to a bell curve in BOH. What stresses people out are the clinical marks, where the tutor scores you out of 10 for each patient that you see.. and it...

Finished BOH sydney. Parts of the PQA is similar to UMAT but easier. The ATAR to be considered is in the low 70s, but middle ATAR or people who make is was in the 80s when i got in. It is probably higher now that the PQA/ATAR/interview are given an equal weighting. When i got in, people were...

Looked it up.. to make sure I was right The article was in the Daily Telegraph wikipedia page under controversies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Daily_Telegraph_(Australia)

i agree that Granville Boys would be one of the worst. It would be very hard to be a teacher there. Bullying would be pretty bad. My cousin told me once that Mt Druitt high was in the news ages and ages ago for having a top HSC of 44 (this was not ATAR or UAI) so this might be an equivalent of...

It will depend on your marks in first year. You should aim for at least a credit average, which you need anyway if you want to do med after. They determine whether you get in or not using 50% ATAR and 50% uni marks. Keep in mind that you can cover almost exactly the same content as med sci in...

email science.information@sydney.edu.au they should be able to help you out.

the first year units required for med sci at usyd can be done by any student from the science faculty they are not exclusive to med sci students. so you could do a bsc, bsc (adv), bsc/ba, blas and still be able to do all the first year med sci units. the second year units of med sci are...

advanced courses generally, have smaller classes. so you may have a better learning environment as a result.

btw i mentioned the amount of hours in dent in the post above just to suggest that i will be pretty hard to keep a part time job that involves working on week days while doing dentistry. not impossible but very hard and tiring. also don't you need to do a professional year after finishing...

GAMSAT cut off to get an interview for 2012 entry was 60, for 2011 it was 62. Its best for you to get an dental assisting job on weekends, now to see how a dental practice works and keep doing that during dentisty. This may allow you to see if its worth doing dentistry. Dental course have...

Lots of people in my course enjoyed BOH but i didnt really (had bad clinical partners - most of the people in course were aware I drew the short straw, multiple times!). The best part of the course for me was rural placement in third year, got to choose where I went and who I went with!! (it was...

I have already finished, a cohort of 40 is actually quite big for BOH! the reason the cohort is so small is because of the number of chairs available in clinics for you guys to work in. If there are 40 of you they will need to find 20 chairs (you get paired up and you have no choice with who you...

It was a new course in 2010 replacing BScience and Technology and Bachelor of Liberal Studies and is administered by the Science Faculty. Since those two courses previously had low cut offs, the university did not want a high cut off for the BLAS, the marketing team offer this course to students...

Adelaide probably has the most capable graduates, they get a lot of clinical experience and from what I've heard possibly more than students from other unis. When doing a course like Dentistry it is important to get as much clinical experience as possible as a student, that is how you improve...
