[stinmo]

I planned to sit gamsat after B Medical science at UTS but,

I heard UMAT is much easier for fob local students like me who arent very good at english but citizen.


and also i heard that I can go UWS medicine after full year study if I get GPA 5.5<

so, my question is,

how the marks of UMAT consist?
(eg, total 100, 30 from section1 30 from section2 40 from section3)

and whhat marks should I get for UWS medicine, usyd medicine and usyd dentistry,?

For UWS, they use weighted marks so you want 160ish if you're a normal applicant and 140ish if you're local.

thx ohexiploitable, my post code is 2194 which is not in the list but, I can see my post code is in the regional bonus point local on the uws web page, so, which is correct?


additionally, do you know UMAT cut-off of USYD? just wanna guess how high 140~160 is related to USYD

cheers


p.s. btw, on uws website it says regional bonus applies exculding B Medicine /B surgery

USyd doesn't do undergrad medicine, only postgrad. You need a GAMSAT over 62 and GPA over 5.5.

While Section 3 is easier for those who aren't great at english (no language in the questions), section 2 requires a knowledge of emotional vocabulary, so if you plan on sitting the UMAT, start expanding your vocabulary now.

The UMAT marks aren't "out of" anything. When you get your UMAT results, you are given 3 overall results, your overall score, aggregate score, and percentile (as well as your individual section scores). Some unis look at your overall score and others look at your aggregate score. The percentile isn't used by unis (it is purely for your benefit), and allows you to see how you went in relation to everyone else who sat the UMAT.
