    A lot of first semester is related to biology. And like, biology introduces basic anatomy in high school, which is obviously slightly relevant to med school.

    Tafe to UWS?

    Afaik you won't be able t have your tafe results counted for mid-year entry so you will have to wait until the next year, hence the 80 CP instead of 40.

    undergrad med in UWS

    I wouldn't recommend doing Biology over Chemistry. I just recommend doing them both if you can. Subjects I would recommend: English (Advanced) or higher Maths Extension 1 Chemistry Biology That leaves you with like 4 or 5 more units. So you can do: Economics Physics SoR1 and have 14 units...

    Can't Decide On Subjects

    Keep MX1, it will increase your proficiency in Mathematics and it's good to have a back-up in case you have a bad day in one of your other subjects, and MX1 is a good back-up considering it scales so well. Most people that drop subjects for "extra time" usually realise they waste all of this...

    undergrad med in UWS

    If you're good at science I would recommend it. It's very helpful. I had a big tail at my school too, like 6 people failed every exam. But as long as you do well (1st or 2nd) you'll do well. Trust me, Biology is a lot more applicable than Chemistry, from what I've noticed.

    Opinion on UMAT Test Style

    As long as you have some sort of ability you can improve. I know people who went from like 40th percentile to 90th+ in a year or two.

    There is a major clinical school in Blacktown so like, yep GWS. The list of GWS postcodes, along with a whole bunch of other information, is on this site: http://www.uws.edu.au/medicine/som/applying_to_medicine/mbbs I don't think this is that important tbh.
