As you can see from the screenshot there is a separate process available for gateway students. I think they have around 10 spots allocated for them.

Nw but it's not as easy at it seems. I've heard it's quite competitive too. Maybe try aim for the stats of that person. With a 94.5 ATAR (and if they were from GWS) they would be eligible for WSU too (but their UCAT might need to be higher). Good luck!

"lmao makes me doubt u actually made it. realistically unless you got like 96th percentile and 99.75 ish its unlikely you will make it unless you have a stellar interview"

No I'm pretty sure English is the only prereq for Med, and chem for some other unis. They offer "bridging courses" for chem and bio for those who didn't take it in High School.
