    What UAI do I need to get into Medicine?

    This is probably the UNSW table that was mentioned. I'm quoting from a post I made last year so note that the table may change slightly this year. Also, UNSW later released a table of UMAT/UAI scores required for second round interviews: Actual UMAT....|......Predicted UAI required for...

    Philosophy for me (with mathematics, sociology or IR filling out the rest).

    UNSW vs USYD

    USyd because it's old, it has sandstone and its average entrance marks are higher.

    I've never worked out why we can't get some of that medical technology down here.

    UMAT - Subtle Discrimination Against Asians?

    I think you have an exagerated sense of entitlement when it comes to UAI's. A 99.9 UAI represents a lot of hard work but I don't think it's as simple as 'it's their UAI and their life, so they should eb able to do what they want with it'. You suggest that a person has the right to study medicine...

    How long do ur courses go for???

    7 years if I get to combine arts with the med degree, maybe longer if I take the medical science honours year route... It doesn't look like I'll be leaving university any time soon.

    UMAT - Subtle Discrimination Against Asians?

    If the UMAT was designed to keep asians out of medicine I don't think it's doing a very good job of it...

    ENG/ECO/HIST TUTOR - UAI: 99.5 - study full of laughter :)

    I too would like to endorse James and the likely quality of his tutoring services. Note: I am possessed of Fortian bias, much like several others in this thread.

    QTAC Offers

    I got an offer for the provisional BA/MBBS arts-med program at UQ towards the begining of january (the provisional med offers get sent out early I geuss, though mine arrived quite late making the overseas acceptance process somewhat difficult) but I'm still hanging out for certain UAC offers.

    undergraduate med @unsw

    I think Newcastle is also 6 years if you choose to take up the extra MedSci option. UNSW has a compulsory research project (independent learning project - ILP - which can be replaced by a MedSci research year) which takes up the better part of a year. The ILP/MedSci year at UNSW probably...

    Does God exist?

    By unreal do you mean an idea that isn't realisable (since unreal ussually entails something which is not real as aposed to something can never be real)? There were times when people have knocked back certain technological ideas as being impossible or 'unreal' only for them to be developed some...

    Medicine Offer Dilemma - Seeking Advice

    Hey, I'm currently overseas visiting family and I just found out that I have recieved a provisional med offer from UQ. Unfortunately the letter reached my house in NSW quite late (family in Aus has let me know right away about any important uni information) leaving me roughly a single day in...

    Does God exist?

    You could use similar logic to complicate your argument. Suppose that the experience of living the religious life is much less enjoyable than the experiences afforded by a life of religious indifference (since the religious being abstains from certain pleasures or whatever hypothetical reason...

    Ur UAI and the desired Course!

    UAI: 99.35 Desired course(s): UNSW arts/medicine - (entrance marks are quite variable. I think last years median was 99.7 but interview/UMAT scores count for a lot) or USyd adv. maths - 98.8 (alternatively I'd happily do science / advanced science since I'd be looking towards a major in...

    98+UAI, 173 UMAT...any hope for unsw offer?

    In which case I expect you're probably interested in knowing my chances as well.

    98+UAI, 173 UMAT...any hope for unsw offer?

    Same question ---> I sat a first round interview (can't tell how I did for the life of me) and got UAI-99.35 and UMAT-196. For those of you with a knowledge of the kind of scores getting UNSW med offers, how do my chances look?
