I have to get up at 5am every morning just to go to med school! lol

I don't do this course, but a couple of my friends do. They have enjoyed it so far except for biochem 1 in 2nd year. First year consists of Digital Forensic Photography, etc basic Chem, Bio, Biometry electives such as Intro to Anatomy, etc.

Coz it's a massive hall, they stick everyone into the same place to be as consistent as possible with times, the process, security etc.

By the time they get start, bring out and distribute the papers from the secure froom, explain the paper and the filling in of the marking sheet, etc it should be almost or just past 9am. Yeah, there maybe 1,200+ ppl sitting it with you, be sure to wear plenty of layers as it was freezing...

29th of July UMAT - Home

Yeah, they are finally taking a stand against people who sit the test early. Hmm, did you skip a grade or start school early?

No, the late round is usually only for interstates and those who out performed their estimated uai/atar, etc.

"Admission Tickets have been emailed to candidates on Wed 15 July" http://umatweb.acer.edu.au/ Hmm, you should have recieved it by now, it's best to contact them ASAP if you still haven't recieved it yet. Also check your spam folder, etc first.

Will do, prob later or the end of this year. Alot of questions are being asked now coz the test is less than 2 weeks away. Others forums such as MSO, etc are experiencing the same influx of umat questions, etc atm though aswell.

Re: Pls read if you're considering pharm (warning: very lengthy) Cheers, thanks for that it was very insightful. I probably will go to Lismore now, it seems that the base hospital and the clinic have alot to offer patient and learning wise. Also Nimbin is close by :P

Theres alot of pro's and cons to going to UWS, but nothing serious or too concerning. I presume ur parents are from a different culture, i can tell you now that no med students have come under any attacks, racism, etc so far. The med building is a short walk from the station and a large...

No GAMSAT is the test for graduate medicine, i.e. you must have completed or are in your final year of completion of an undergraduate course, etc. It is a test based on university level science, two essays, science and humanities MCQ's, etc. www.gamsat.acer.edu.au

Re: Pls read if you're considering pharm (warning: very lengthy) Hey, I might be doing my 3rd year, year long rural placement at either Lismore or Bathurst, so yeah please keep us updated, i'd be really interested to see your perspectives of the hospital, the community and the pharmacy over...

An invigilator over the PA will announce the instructions, how to fill in the circles/id/name, beginning of the test, that you have X minutes remaining near the end of each sections, and then tell you to put pencils down, while briefly explaining the next section and then recommencing after a...

DFEE places no longer exist at public universities, only Bond university (a private university) has full fee places at around 53k+ annually or over 256k for the whole course. Most universities have Full fee places for international students who wish to study medicine.

Hence, why BMI does not apply to asians! A more accurate measure is hip to waist ratio, etc, etc.

Pfft, how am I spruiking Bond! For those who don't know Bond is a private university which requires full-fee upfront (around an insane 52-3k+ per year), all other uni's including Notre Dame have phased them out, except for international DFEE positions.

The actual exam is alot harder than any of the acer official practice papers/booklets. Yeah, alot of people don't post their marks up as well, alot of people are ashamed of their poor marks, etc.

Chemistry and Mathematics 2U/Ext I are only prerequisites at some undergrad uni's such as JCU, UTAS and Bond. Most uni's reccommend chemistry and mathematics for medicine, but are not compulsory at most undergrad uni's. Some such as UQ have bonus points for higher mathematics (4u) and...

We might have to wait till they publish a new guideline in this years UAC booklet or when they update their web page.
