Hi
I wish to do post graduate medicine, I currently have a 7 GPA and have finished my first year of Medical science advanced at UWS. Should I stay at this uni and get a higher GPA at the end of my degree or transfer to usyd or unsw second year and have a lower GPA? I know uws is looked down upon compared to usyd and unsw, but I hear they only look at GPA + GAMSAT for interviews and not which uni you came from. It's easier to get a higher GPA at uws so should I stay here? + I have a scholarship here but losing that doesn't matter to me if changing unis is better for my chances to get into medicine.

If you have a GPA of 7, would you have a shot at undergrad at UWS this year?

(or would you have if you had applied?)

Nope because I went badly in the UMAT 137.5 UWS weighted 70%ill, and GPA is only a threshold for them, once you pass the 6 GPA threshold they no longer look at it.
