    Why the hate on pharmacy?

    umm sweeping statement much? there are LOTS of jobs in engineering, depending on the stream. of course you aren't going to find jobs in streams like aviation, maritime, etc.

    Why the hate on pharmacy?

    Why the hate on pharmacy?

    honestly why would you post things you have no idea about? the pay for pharmacy will pretty much never get above 100k, even if you own your own pharmacy. long contact hours at uni, generally longer than average course, poor job outcomes, etc. that is why people hate on pharmacy. sure that's...

    Face2face Vs. Medentry Vs. NIE

    i think you really need to take cost into account. AFAIK medentry is the most expensive followed by f2f and then by NIE? tbh prep really shouldn't be taken that seriously for the umat as the most you can do is familiarise yourself with the types of question they put forth and perhaps the common...

    In search of a mentor xD

    also make sure to get some work exp in the field (even if it's just a week or so during one of your holidays). they ALWAYS ask this at interviews and it looks really bad if you try and weasel your way out of that question with unrelated examples. :p aside from that, most people will have more...

    In search of a mentor xD

    anything really... and when i say anything i really do mean anything. pretty much all extra curricular activities demonstrate a willingness to be involved, motivation, determination, team work, etc. all desirable qualities in med

    In search of a mentor xD

    well yeah because entry is usually (and i don't mean always) determined by considering all 3 aspects of your application. that is, umat score, atar score, and interview. so if you haven't done any extra curricular "stuff", your interview is likely to suffer but if you make up for it with other...

    UMAT Scaling

    hmmm i think it's much higher. i really question how they would even know. prep courses always give out dodgey info like that and claim they know everything. i've seen much higher marks for the other sections so i doubt there would be that much discrepancy among the 3.

    Class of 2010, what is your Ideal Income

    OP don't you want to do med? do realise that med is all about hating oneself and the pay is in fact, crap until you're a very senior doc.
