Which medical courses in University is UMAT not required? (1 Viewer)

[ParraEelz]

Eg are there some courses where UMAT is not required? Like I dunno like optometry? Dentistry? Pharmacy?

Just anything in medicine which doesn't require UMAT?

Also, I'm starting in year 12 this term, is it too late to start preparing for UMAT for next year? I feel like I'm doomed ...

Please help!!!

Very much appreciated!!
Also, if I want to get into Medicine, what other pathways can I take? (If I don't get 99.95 atar)
And ARE YOU REQUIRED TO DO ALL SCIENCES? BECAUSE I ONLY DO CHEMISTRY!!!!

Every other health science course should not have UMAT as a prerequisite
Not having sciences may disadvantage you but will not impede your entry into the course.

Its never too late to do anything. You can start UMAT now.
And if you are worried about what subjects you do, you can always do a bridging course before you start.

JCU Med unless you get like 99 or above.

Even then JCU is the only undergrad course for med without UMAT.

The others are all provisional entry.. i.e. you do a bachelor of science or some shit, have to maintain a good GPA and then and only then can you start the MBBS course.

I think griffith is like you do one year of something and they interview after the first year or something stupid like that

It's been a while since I researched this stuff so you should go and research it yourself.

Long story short:
JCU
Griffith
USYD
ANU
