fahad didn't get a 99.95... he graduated from arthur philip w a 97. something, he got into med after doing undergrad

That’s def possible, some unis have different weighting for ucat and atar. Eg flinders uni weighs 10% ucat 90% atar whereas unda is more like 60% ucat and 40% atar (as long as u get over the 94.4 atar hurdle then ur in)

what does an assured pathway do?

 

[totally_screwed]

No you definately are not. Maximising your marks in the UCAT is essential. There are students who have achieved 99.95s who were not given offers as a result of them neglecting the importance of the test.
Good example:

wtf r these universities 'flinders"? also given u know allot ab this stuff, what does an assured pathway do?

Just search the uni up tf it’s in South Australia

Also an assured pathway is normally 3 yrs of an allied health course (eg biomedical science) that guarantees u entry into postgrad med at the same uni without having to sit the gamsat

Because even these assured pathways are a) difficult to get into (eg unda needs to consider ur ucat plus interview) and u need to maintain a certain gpa/wam across ur course years or b) its assured as long as ur in the top 10% of the cohort (which is difficult considering that ur cohort is prolly filled with sweats that also wanna get into med)

These assured pathways aren’t even that common, the only unis that have considerably good pathways are unda, monash, usq and just a couple of others (no good ones in nsw apart from unda)

is notre dame a good uni? also what is the diff between a bach of med and bach of surgery vs doct of med?

 

[nsw..wollongong]

Also keep in mind that some assured pathways still require mmis or panel interviews

It’s okay, private uni with a heavy focus on Catholicism which is fine for most ppl but annoying for some. Also bach of med/surgery (assuming ur looking at jcu) is another way of saying doctor of med but only for undergraduates. So this might be 5 years. But a doctor of med is a postgraduate course, u need to have completed another Bach degree before this. It’s normally 3-4 yrs

oh what rlly? so all undergrad is always bach?

 

[nsw..wollongong]

Yes. Undergrad med is either Bach med or Bach med sci/doctor med (straight transition from Bach to postgrad without any exam, like at usyd)
