registrations of interest were due in today, along with application forms and CVs
you can register your interest online, but how are you going to send in your application form (via mail) as well as have your school principal/academic estimate your UAI and send it in (mail)?
i don't like your chances now, to be honest

umat admission tickets have been sent out, the test is on wednesday. sorry buddy
acer umat rego's were open since april or something
(online and via snail mail), im not sure about unsw, but i registered my interest a while ago, however i left my application form +CV until term 3 resumed to have my UAI estimated with principal's comments.
to answer your question, yes, medicine is hard to get into.
try doing a search on the forum for 'umat' or 'medicine'.
the stats are something like 5000 entrants,
UAI of 95+ (to be considered)
'superior performance' in UMAT
as well as in the interview.
1/3 UMAT
1/3 Interview
1/3 UAI
there are about 140-160 places for med at unsw as well, so you can do the math there. first round interviews are given to people with estimated UAIs of 99? (not too sure about this figure, could be lower) and good UMAT results. (i could be wrong about the interview-selection process, but have a search on the forum).
