So many people on BoS are asking this sort of question so I might as well ask too..

I would like to do VetSci in Usyd (or another uni that offers it) or do VetBioSci.. y'know, just incase.
I'm not going to bother with the question: IS IT POSSIBLE!?! because anything is possible if you are committed enough.
So.. given my subjects.. and my attitude..
does anyone have an honest answer to the possibility that 'i could' get to do that course.
And any other useful hints.

(eg: what do my subject scores have to look like)


Very grateful (in advance) for all the advice.
:)


PS: I know that the ATAR needed for VetSci in Usyd is 98.2 (or mabye it has dropped since I last checked) and VetBioSci is 84.5.
(i only checked Usyd because it is closer to home!)

You have already answered your own question, stop doubting yourself and get to the goal. Try playing around with an ATAR calculator: http://www.matrixeducation.com.au/atar/atar-calculator.html for the marks you might need, keep in mind this is a very rough indication.

Anything is possible.

Whether it's plausible depends on how hard you work. Given your subjects, you're going to have to perform well in them especially.

Have some crazy shot preferences, but also have some you'll comfortably get into. If you TRULY want to do a course that badly, the institute it's at shouldn't bear too much on you.
