What HSC subjects do future doctors choose in Australia? (1 Viewer)

UNSW was actually much harder to get into unfortunately. Median UCAT was 3021.2

Most important thing is just to back yourself honestly

back yourself honestly?

Is it true that your subjects don't affect your uni application? Its just that you dont have to do as well in harder subjects? and only UCAT + INTERVIEW + ATAR counts?

It was in their Medicine Seminars (iirc during Open Day), but this screenshot was on MSO. They are being pree transparent with data which is a good thing!

ATAR Range is so tight (by 0.47)

bare minimum is more like 99, excluding UCAT only offers. and that means in triple science u would have to score ~95, going off me assuming your English would be at low band 6 assuming a good scenario. Triple science per se isn't that bad. Scoring mid band 6 in each is tough.

Not true. You would need 92/3 for all 3 sciences and 100 in 2U isn't hard to achieve for maths just work on English

Dang looks like I’m really gonna struggle with that not gonna lie. Still hopes up

Btw @Speed’o’sound Sonic if someone did all crappy subjects like food tec, senior science etc, and get a 99 ATAR, they can still get into medicine?

Wow really? To get a 99 ATAR? Bro I've acheived that standard in year 11. Guess I have a chance of making it?

Don't worry too much, from your previous posts about 4u and phys I think you will do great! I definitely believe you can get well above the atar cutoff so have some hope!

Yeah bro they don’t care for what subjects you do just the final ATAR at most uni’s. Some specifics have a basic requirement although 95% of the time it’s just English Advanced

Have you tried doing a practice 2U paper for HSC?

with how OP was complaining about English, i put 88 for eng adv, 98 2u, 95 for all three sciences for 99.25.

with those subjects, it might be physically impossible to achieve a 450+ aggregate. IIRC, 100 in senior science is 43-44.

Yeah, the CRICKET QUESTION stumped people?! Oml, just algebraic techniques.

The BOS TRIALS on the other hand which I got 28, 29 and 86 x1 x2 chem was tough!

Yeah, just ATAR UCAT AND INTERVIEW

Only chemistry and possibly other sciences is recommended
