    Bmw z4

    LOL at GIANT PINK SIG +1 rep. Re-rich... We're not :( The BMW site is useless, so hard to navigate with little information.

    Bmw z4

    I really like this car and parents have agreed to upgrade my Toyota Aurion ZR6 to the BMW Z4. I'm looking at the base model s23i but would like Sat Nav. Photos: http://www.bimmer.ir/blog/images/stories/bmw/Z4/2009-bmw-z4-wallpapers-41.jpg http://images.mjmi.com/new400/BMW/2009_Z4_BLACK.jpg...

    what are my chances, based purely on academic results?

    2bd/3rd round offers were 99.30 this year. Even though Melbourne University won't be accepting Dental students this year - and permanently converting to a post graduate course, I doubt 2nd/3rd rounds will exceed 99.50. You're in buddy. I have a few people who've PMed about their fantastic...

    what are my chances, based purely on academic results?

    At the very least you'll be accepted at La Trobe Dentistry. Hope to see you here next year. It is a fantastic course.

    Views on smoking?

    Huge turn-off. And also, it is a proven fact that different geographic locations sport different IQ averages as well as Salary and educational degrees. Not saying that the whatever-coast you live at is bad- just letting you know that there are CLEAR distributions between areas.

    Is it better to do

    You're told a lie. Postgraduate Med is fierce, same with dent. Back 07' I went to the melbourne Uni open day and asked the person at the biomedical stand what is "genuinely/honestly the chances of transferring". She/he gave me a weird smile and said "Well, competition is fierce, but if you do...

    Introducing: Dentistry at La Trobe University

    Glad you're joining us =) I'll see you around campus. The number of places decreased in 2009 is because of students in 08' cohort who failed. While 55 students were accepted in 08', the 08' class now only has 42, compared to about 45 in 09' (even though only 40 new students were accepted in...

    dentistry

    Dentistry is a separate course to Medicine. You do not require an MBBS to get into Dentistry. In many countries and decades ago, Dentistry was considered an medical speciality, however, due to a lack of Dentist, it has now evolved into a separate course. As for the Bachelor of Oral Health, it...

    Med/Law

    MBBS.LLB A brilliant combination. Like as said above, you can go into law and branch into medical malpractice. Or, correct me if I'm wrong. You can easily get into the board of "decision makers" of a hospital. "Who should we give this heart/lungs to?" I wanted the MBBS.LLB but my grades were...

    Med Transfer!?!?

    And what the hell are YOU on about? Your grammar throughout your post has flaws repeatedly. You have no underlying point to your post. Enjoying the anonymity of the internet? I'm sure you're "very" well educated. Mind sharing your credentials?

    Med Transfer!?!?

    Excuse me? I didn't hear you properly. Med for Pay? Please don't crush another person's true dreams and passions for a couple of stacks of plastic currency.

    what do you say in interviews?

    I have many friends studying Med/Dent and I don't think any one of them were not nervous during the interview. I know I would be - luckily, La Trobe doesn't do interviews (phew). Ditto to things said above. You will be nervous about something that determines the greater portion of your...

    what do you say in interviews?

    according to this quote your not supposed to say you like helping people so what ARE you supposed to say? i just had a little browse through the thread and ive got a question why do you have to prepare for this? the interview isnt about getting all the questions right, its about the panel to...

    what do you say in interviews?

    Yes good answer. Add in other things as well - elaborate on your "steady hands" and passion. "Dentistry is an amalgamation of science and art. I love to draw during my free time, often, i head out to the garden, snap a photo of an insect - ladybug for instance, pop the photo onto my laptop and...

    what do you say in interviews?

    Oh don't get me wrong people. I mean to elaborate on my point, however, found that it was long winded and irrelevant to the other thread it was posted in. I do stand firm on my cautionary warning to avoid using (esp. the exact wordings of) "I want to help people". The interviewers will...

    Monash-La Trobe Pharmacists

    Urm...No it doesn't. It can be 90 with a UMAT of 20 for all we know. I can believe maybe a minimum requirement to be set for UMAT at 70+ for consideration, but to claim an 80+ with 99.00 ENTER/ATAR for Pharmacy...probably not. Monash Pharmacy friend: 95.X, UMAT 76 96.X, UMAT 74 La Trobe...

    Do doctors do practicals on corpses?

    We, as practicing dentist, also learn from cadavers. However, we do not dissect them as such due to limited specimens. Re- Importance of the title Dr. Not that great. If you go into a health science course, it should not be for the respect or title. It should be for passion. Be careful with...

    Dentistry at La Trobe?

    My friend doing dentistry with me is from Perth (WA), his enter was certainly a lot higher than 96 and he did not get an offer. I don't think you can find Dentistry or Medicine anywhere for less than 98.00 (even so, you'll be looking at either: a very high UMAT or full fee place). There will...
