Atar for optometry (1 Viewer)

[siakhan]

Hi,
I have a few questions to ask:

-is the demand for a bachelor of optometry high in unsw (estimate )
-how many places in unsw are there for optometry (around)
-what is the estimate ATAR for optom
-what is the rough umat requirement for optom.

- yes

- going to say around 200 based on this: http://www.timetable.unsw.edu.au/current/OPTM2190.html

- at least 96+ and good Umat guessing around high 80 to 90's

 

[siakhan]

I heard around ~80 each but ATAR/UMAT will increase/decrease in proportion. Had a friend who got in with 98 ATAR 60 UMAT, etc. (2 yrs ago)

 

[siakhan]

Umm...ok so 97 plus atar with around 70 plus umat. Ok ..btw are you sure it's only 200 (estimate) people for optom..

 

[fairyfloss94]

Actually, it's less than 200. Probably about 100, which was the intake this year.

 

[MiseryParade]

There were roughly 140 first year students studying either optometry or vision science this year, so I'm guessing optom intakes are 80-90.

What if u have a 73 umat and a 99+ atar?

Quick bump

So I kinda screwed up my atar and got 96.75, with 83 umat - would this make the cut for optom?

 

[uddivad]

They take 2/3 atar and 1/3 UMAT as said on their website https://www.optometry.unsw.edu.au/future/faqs

Thanks man, was a bit worried since heaps of applicants would have 98+ atars.

Do I have a chance with a low UMAT (61) and ATAR of 98.30?
