Hey guys,

I'm wondering which Uni's don't look at your ATAR after having done 1yr tertiary studies and UMAT for medicine. In other words only look at GPA and UMAT.

Thanks!

As far as I know, UTAS fits into this category.

Not sure but conversion from GPA to ATAR is terrible. 99+ATAR is equivalent to HD+ in GPA from what I heard. Getting a HD in uni is much harder.

No it doesn't work like that.

I think UNSW also does this but like I said earlier GPA to ATAR conversion is crap.

Unsw uses your atar and gpa at a 1:1 ratio and combines them to get a new score. for uws and jmp, its just a threshold and doesn't count towards ranking scores.
