Tbh, I think I might have more chance with GAMSAT. Don't think my GPA is quite there yet just hovering under 6 atm, which isn't great. It's definitely a degree that is hard to be consistent in.

Thanks, yeah I am caught in two minds tbh. I have always really wanted to study Medicine but it definitely feels like it's been getting further and further away. Do UMAT preparation materials/courses help at all? I have heard about friends, at the time, who splashed heaps...but didn't get in.

Hi peeps, I have been thinking about changing degrees because I am currently not enjoying what I am studying (Law & Comm at Sydney). I am heading into my 4th year (of a 5 year degree) but I am not sure what options I have to have a crack at med. Can someone fill me in on whether I can...
