how demoralising i know this guy who repeted 2 unit maths only to try and come first. in the end he got beaten by 4 year 11 accelerants

The pharmacy cut off rose from 94.55 to ~97.. that's why so many people missed out

what do u mean, rural pharmacy?

it has a lower cut-off than pharmacy
a friend of mine is doing it... but science never interested me (so I never bothered enquiring more )

I think it is basically the same course, but apparently you have to go somewhere far away to do it, so they encourage people to stay in rural areas (less people willing to work there)

But i think most people just go back to the city.. heh, that's what I gathered, something along those lines
