Credit is 65 and above at UNSW :P They use this formula listed at this site: https://student.unsw.edu.au/wam

I dont think I can provide much more information here but most scholarship recipients I know are at least 99 ATAR. I wouldn't say it reflects poorly or that it makes you look better. But bear in mind there are many applicants with amazing ATARs as well who are extremely well rounded. Based...

I'm pretty sure you can apply for special consideration (which has to be submitted generally within 3 days of the exam). Whether they accept it or not is a different story based on the 'severity of your illness'. I know students whose application got rejected (they had the general cold + an MC)...

Eep From memory, most people don't get in at the interview stage !

Yeah, they do have a different pathway, it's like pre-med where they attend the program for 4 weeks- https://rcs.med.unsw.edu.au/indigenous-entry-medicine. I guess ATAR can be used as a 'benchmark'! Or alternatively they could be rural + have EAS I think. 2 of my rural friends in med have 92...

I think the UNSW Medicine application form is quite comprehensive and the areas where they ask you to elaborate on, are possible areas they would you to have experience in. They enjoyed asking me about leadership and teamwork in my interview, so possibly having experiences in those areas would...

Not sure where the condescending language or passive aggressiveness you were mentioning came from tbh. I was just clearing up misunderstandings as well, so future meddies can just select the best option for them and not be too confused from different personal sources. It was really confusing for...

Not sure how you 'definitely know this; ;-; Since I know 2 people who seemed pretty decent not get in last year. The 30 places capped was on the UAC website for 2016. Unless you got an interview bangladesh, not sure how you know that :P 1) My cousin achieved 99.95 two years ago (from...

Not sure about that :blink2: . 2/5 students I knew from 'Intro to Med' seminars didn't get in last year.I think that used to be the case but they changed it. There's more people applying each year.

Yep. I'm saying your score representation is a bit lower than what people got offered for interview thats all (: Also it could be useful to add in that people with EAS/ Access scheme in UNSW get significant consideration

Heads up that for Usyd, not all 99.95s get in. Think only 3/4 got in last year. Also for UNSW, your 'chart' seems a bit off :P I got 99.65 and 96 UMAT (around 66 if you divide by 3) for my year and was considered average if not slightly lower than ave in my course :blink2: Monash seems pretty...

Didnt you ask for the possible outcomes (on what would happen after you sent your letter?) You would still have your 'credits' either way - the modules you completed

Thumbs up :D

Guaranteed ATAR for UNSW engineering is now 92 for 2017 intake. For your reference: https://www.engineering.unsw.edu.au/sites/eng/files/publications/2017Undergradguide_0.pdf the 2017 undergraduate guide book for engineering

GENY0003 (Academic Skills writing): Generally easy course, 1 week at uni, 15% class participation. if you aren't a huge fan of Alice in wonderland, maybe not the course for you Friends did: SciFi (Forgot the exact course code): Easy course, watch movies and small quiz after, 1 week at uni...

PHYS1160 ftw!! Easy grades, little commitment :P There are others as well (where the course finishes within a 3 days and easy assessments). I did my 2 gen eds over summer too. Completely manageable and got 90+ for both of them Also volunteered extensively during that holiday, went overseas and...

In hospitals, Dietitians ensure that the patient has a suitable diet for his condition. E.g when for a cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy (which 'wipes out their immunity), dietitians suggest a neutropenic diet for the patient (Aka, low pathogen/bacteria/micro-organism diet) which advises...

Could we have a spam button that marks a post as spam? :P (not sure if this alrd exists) There seems to be a bit of spam in the general uni forum!

Re: Is there a cap to the number of people allowed to get HD or D's in USyd/UNSW Scie They have no cap for Science in UNSW, but unlike law, there are quite a few who pass with distinction (if they choose the right subjects). Less people pass with HD.
