I feel my brain fermenting after 2 weeks w/o a textbook to read...Here r some commonly used texts: Anatomy/Physio: Saladin (Anatomy/Physio) Easy-to-read with loads of colourful pics. I find it simple and to the point. Excellent text. Guyton & Hall (Physio) Supposed to be a really...

I agree with the 'ITS NOT WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE' bit. I'm disappointed that we spend excessive amounts of time on sociology (ard 45-55% of classes r on sociology) at Monash. Yes, its good to know abt the problems people with disability face and the type of aid they get, but i'm not...

Yeah! Do a search... I liked Medentry...All sections were decent...esp S3 patterns. S2 was prolly too easy. The big plus was the price...i paid $245! I also did UMATOLOGY...this one had 20 practice tests (compared to medentry's 10)...but with LOADS of mistakes. I was so pissed i nv got...

I'm asian...and i didn't feel disadvantaged because of my race while sitting the UMAT. I also happen to know quite a few asians who did FREAKING well in the UMAT. If the UMAT was intended to discriminate against asians...then its doing a dreadful job.

Med's my dream...i'd take bonded. But if dent is urs...take it! Take whichever u think u'd enjoy studying n practicing...

Hey! i'm wondering if anyone is interested to share a flat wif me at monash green? Very nice place...check out the webby...

UMAT materials aint sold at bookshops. U BUY THEM ONLINE. ie. Medentry...Icarius...amepp....etc. Go read up abt them on other threads!!!

Does the med sch u come from affect ur chances of doing specialist training?

Gd luck to all here!

99.95 is gd enuf for Oxbridge! I dun think NUS requires such a high score...btw, i'm singaporean...they take in 230 locals every yr.

Any idea what sorta TER/UAI would be needed for NUS (singapore), Glasgow, Dundee, Manchester (UK)?

Is that so? Hmm... I'd still prefer Oz coz its cheaper...btw, a friend back home didn't do the umat n got a conditional offer from unsw telling him he needed a scaled of 135. He didn't bother to sit as he had already accepted a monash place. Just recently, unsw gave him an UNCONDITIONAL offer! :)

Reapply to as many unis as possible next yr...including scotland and Ireland...

erm...I got 173 scaled and a predicted TER of 99...which is probably why i got interviewed. But i dun think I'll get 99...so i'm trying to access my chances of getting in with a TER of 98+. My phone interview wasn't hot...felt dry. The interviewer was polite, that's about all.

Hey...I'm international and was wondering if there's any hope of me getting into unsw with a UAI of 98+ and UMAT scaled of 173? All responses r very much appreciated.
