ANU provisional medicine (1 Viewer)

Is there anyone at all who actually understands the provisional entry program? There doesn't seem to be a lot of point to it apart from the fact that you get your interview done first. Do you still get ranked based on your GPA/GAMSAT for selection purposes, or do you just have to have made 'satisfactory progress' (ie. pass)?

I'm trying to decide whether or not to go to the interview, and the deadline is the end of this week

oh, and also any ideas as to how ANU rates among grad. medical schools such as USYD and UMelb?

Don't have to do GAMSAT and your interview is already done, just need to maintain the average that they say, pretty sure this is how the ball rolls.

I called up the faculty and they told me that the provisional offer means u dont have to do the interview again....thats it ! You still have to get a pretty high gpa and a competitive gamsat score like any other applicant. You compete with everybody else to get into postgrad med. It actually indirectly says this on their website under provisional offers. Imo its not worth the move from nsw.
