Hi guys,

i need some help, in getting into medicine.

Just say, i am unable to reach the 'recommended' ATAR of 97+ and don't make it into undergraduate medicine degree. What are my other options of getting into medicine?? (ie. Advanced Science --> medicine)

thanks

Do any other undergrad degree such as science or arts get a 5.5 gps and apply for the graduate course you will Also need to do a gamsat alternatively you good do the umat at the end of a bachelor degree and get into an undergrad course That way contact the. Uni ur thinking of and see, I'm gonna try these at the end Of mine. Best of luck to you.

what idiot told you that?? ofcourse its recognised, and ive heard its agreat course like the rest of the med courses in australia. I wish ppl would get over the whole idea of prestige related to medical courses..it just isnt relevant what uni you go to in relation to so called prestige unless you are doing something like law or business i guess.

this thread says that UWS is actually a TAFE and that the medicine/law degrees are not up to requirements :S hence are not recognised ??

@utopianradical that is a weird coincidence :S lol anyways the UMAT is on the 28th of July so wish me luck :D
