Lex answered it. Ishq asked if it was calculated on the basis of marks or grades, so he said it was marks as well as explaining what the acronym meant.

Hey, funnybunny, I'm stating my opinion about the UMAT because I've researched it extensively for months. What I mean't by people who don't pass the UMAT shouldn't study medicine, is that there are more difficult tests than the UMAT in medical schools and if they can't pass a simple exam like...

Yeh, Biology should be a prerequisite, and it shows that the student has an interest in a subject relevant to medicine. Also, why don't many prospective medical students choose to study Pd/h/pe, it is related to medicine, so why aren't they interested in it if they're applying for medicine?

Another note I wanted to make, which is a bit irrelevant to the UMAT, is that medical graduates were surveyed some years ago at the university of Queensland, and 30% of the medical graduates said that if they could choose, they would have chosen not to study medicine.

Waste of money, you don't even need to do UMAT preparation just rely on affinity and natural ability to get through it.

What percentage of correct answers would you need to get a UMAT score of 200?

Hey Vizman. How difficult was it for you to get work experience at the hospital you got it at, did you know someone there or did you just apply independently? Also what did you do in your work experience with the hospital? And could I do work experience with a GP in a medical practice?

How could someone interested in healthcare and medicine be able to get work experience with a doctor or hospital?

A competitive UAI for medicine is 99.00. Even after you've completed some tertiary education I think it'll be difficult for you to gain entry into medicine.

On medstudentsonline.com go to getting into medicine > interview there is a website in the forum that has hundreds of questions. Just curious what UAI did you get?

Hi, What UAI and UMAT score do you think a person needs to gain entry into UWS MBBS for 2007? Also how many applicants do you think there will be for next year?
