is it possible for me to get into a bachelor of medical science (80.30) at macquarie with my atar of 85.05, the catch is i havent done any science based subjects or advanced maths - ive only done general maths. assuming i get in, it goes for 3 years, then if i ace all my subjects is it possible for me to gain entry into a bachelor of medicine/surgery at UWS (atar = 98) ?
I am hoping this will pull me through ???

you only need 95ish atar for UWS

but you need a gpa of 6.5 after 1st year uni and it decreases progressively until you finish your degree (5.6)

You can get into any course anywhere as long as you make the ATAR cutoff for it, no matter what subjects you've done before (although, doing bridging courses in those subjects will definitely help because you may need the knowledge to do well).

Fuck, should've chosen an easier course.
How am I supposed to get >6.5 GPA?!
Shit…

Okay, long story short, becoming a surgeon was always in the back of my mind but I didn't end up picking any science related subjects at school and got an ATAR of 85.05, now I've realised that I want to do surgery but I don't know what hope I have of getting into a course as i've left it too late.

My first preference is a teaching degree, so is it possible that I can change that in the late round to a bachelor of arts or a bachelor of science then transfer after one year to bachelor of medicine/surgery at UWS.
If not am I able to wait and go in as a mature age student??

If someone could please give me some detailed and realistic advice on what I could possible do to ensure I make it in to the course of my dreams, that would be great.
THANKS

LOL

If you didn't make it into Medicine or Dentistry this year, my advise is to get a UMAT tuition from www.umataustralia.com.au
Their tutors are actual accredit teachers by the department of Education and Training. They sit UMAT every year and they know what to teach you. They are the only company that provide a professional preparation. Good luck

All right mate. LOL stop advertising your company on every Med. forum.

So would I be able to complete a graduate certificate in science at university or at tafe and then after that year sit the GAMSAT ? Also do you know what universities offer postgraduate medicine/surgery ?

YES

Harvard offers postgrad med, as do all ivy leagues pretty much. Apply for transfer and scholarship and youre in. You gotta pull your socks up though man, pretty dam high. an ATAR of 85 isnt exactly spectacular, you have to prove youre better than that at Uni.
