anyways stats for those curious
2023 atar: 98.75
ucat: 3060 (VR:700)

[totally_screwed]

HOW IM BACK TO SQUARE ONE DOES THAT MAKE SENSE I THOUGHT IF U START UNI U NO LONGER ARE UNDERGRAD IM GONNA GO KMS
WHHAT TF IS POSTGRAD MED THEN AHHH

let me put it simply cuz
you will be applying as an undergrad UNTIL you finish an undergraduate degree
youd be applying as a postgrad if you have FINISHED a degree and have graduated from something

definitely not rural
and I'm not sure but I don't think so, would need to ask him but he's at work

but why does atar count then
i heard for unsw if u start a degree then to get into a nother degree they look at ur WAM and not atar anymore for the first year of studies??

 

[goodcat911]

@synthesisFR just do ucat next year and make wsu med u bum

 

[HazzRat]

@synthesisFR if u can’t pick a career can u become one of these ppl 🥹

ur WAM counts when ur competing with current university students, i.e. internally transferring, going into a master's with limited spots etc.

ATAR counts when ur competing with HSC leavers, and potentially current uni students but that's irrelevant

if I'm not horribly wrong

 

[its_ace21]

Absolutely not that’s just u cuz
I just want to be happy
And not waste 6 years of my twenties studying to death for a practice I will never use
Med school is not fun

 

[liamkk112]

i think synthesis should just stick with the degree he already picked otherwise he is never gonna graduate

bro is going to have transferred into every degree at this point

 

[its_ace21]

@synthesisFR what did u even pick

 

[Average Boreduser]

this mf cant pick a degree lemme assure you that gap yr is essential. Its not a course you can magically just get into bc its one of the most competitive uni courses out there. I'd say stick to something and start grinding alr lmfao.

this guy considered law, teaching, engineering, med AND music (idk if theres more) like each of those are so diff to each other

average white kid who gets angry at ppl when they ask 'what dyw to be when ur older' and then is fked once school is finished and theres no time to 'think about it'

not rlly. I mean u got a yr to practice for ucat... might aswell grind rn to secure ur spot...

 

[nsw..wollongong]

not rlly. I mean u got a yr to practice for ucat...

and say u don't get in. u just wasted one yr doing no degree. i reckon u have a higher chance doing non-standard entry bc at least ull get experience in a degree

I mean its worked out for a fair few ppl ik. but I guess if thats what u think is the best approach I cant say much, im in yr11 rn so

Wait, hold on. So if I start a 5yr degree this year, I will be labelled as an undergraduate until I graduate right.

So with med, what are the entry requirements for most uni's, as someone 1st/2nd year in a 5 year undergraduate degree.

Is it ATAR (meet min requirement) + UCAT... OR WAM + UCAT??

Any clarification on this would be much appreciated, thanks!
