today was my first day of dentistry at usyd and I met a whole bunch of people who did an undergrad, sat gamsat and got an offer (there were no interviews apparently), it's very possible

challenging for sure but out of a cohort of like 100+ MOST students made it through postgrad and only like 13 were double degree students, there's certainly a number of spots open

I'd say it's pretty easy but you have to be a bit extroverted or at least willing to interact with others, everyone at uni is looking to make friends so you'll find that when you approach someone they'll be responsive

in hs I had the same friends the whole time which is very diff to uni, you'll certainly be forced to step out of ur comfort zone if you want to make friends but once you do, it's only uphill from there

$4000+
the articulator (idk what this is) costs 1.8k by itself
I spent far less on the 2nd hand car I bought a month ago
