Thanks for that Dexter. This summer thing sounds pretty good. I will have to see how I go throughout the year whether to do it or not. Do you have to apply?(by a certain date?). Will doing the summer research work help in achieving work(as in employment) after university. Also I have...

Summer scholarships/research, hmm. Can you take this between each year, for example from year 1 to 2 or 2 to 3, or is it stricty appointed to one year(summer). So is that right about 200 per week, 6-8 weeks, work experience. What hours(like number of)? As I already have a job(Mcslave,lol)...

With the honours year, what happens, like how many hours per week. Do you get paid? I'm interested in the financial side of doing honours??

So you could walk into the lab one day and instead of seeing stem cells, there is just a bit lump of skin in the petri-dish. This might be an over-exaggeration but funny anyhow.

When I begin either my MedSci or Sci degree, do I choose my subjects for that year(or semester?). If I do what should I choose in Medsci that will help in progressing to a microbiology or a molecular biology area. Also If I get into Sci instead of MedSci, what subjects would I then take to...

Them silly stem cells, weaklings letting the bacteria run rings around them. Why were they dying?? You should have mixed the two together and watched the stem cells die even faster...

Ok, i'll chill out a bit and enjoy my break, ahh wheres that hot chocolate, hmm.. Peer mentoring, great. Hey Survivor I don't even know your name, except for the survivor and i'm guessing that ain't your real name. You know mine as I sometimes put it at the end of my posts. Yep, transfer...

Thanks Survivor. I'm now just going to stick to UNSW. B MedSci, If i don't get in then BSci and transfer after 1 year to MedSci@UNSW. All sorted...................................For now....

What major would stem cells be a big part of. I am really interested in stem cells and the research going into them. What major would it be??

Well this is what the UTS handbook says about the subjects in the first year of medical science at UTS Year 1 Autumn semester 33116 Statistical Design and Analysis 6cp 65101 Chemistry 1C 6cp 91101 Cells, Genetics and Evolution 6cp 91701 Medical Science 1 6cp Spring...

I have just discovered that UTS has a Medical Science course, I didn't see it before and only had B Sci @UTS as a pref from UTS. My UAI is 79.15, and am in that Inputs scheme(EAS Scheme) so that I now am eligible for a course up to 10 points above my course cutoff. The 2006 cutoff for MedSci...

Absolutely correct Templar. If you work hard you will be able to grab yourself a spot in the adv course at USYD by transfering after a year or so. Don't worry about the honours built in, to some people that may be a bad thing, as some may want to just do a 3 year degree and then they realise...

Read the start of the UAC book that contains all the info regarding the different offer round...it explains it all, I will explain as much as I feel necessary to this topic. You will be considered for your first pref, if you get an offer then you have that one offer and the others are not...

Mitch why are you defering for one year. i can't wait to get into uni and start. The break from november till practically march is huge. I don't need anymore. So why are you doing it, i'm jsut interested..

Yep That Maq MedSci degree sounds a bit silly, so its UNSW. Again my prefs have changed, as the other post has now eliminated my second pref of (DFEE)MedSci at UNSW. So now its B MedSci at UNSW, hopefully. Or B Sci at UNSW. If i don't get medical i'm pretty certain of getting BSci, which...

Thanks for the good news there survivor concerning the marks needed to transfer, those silly people telling me the uai and WAM(??) cutoff average, silly. Oh well, thats good. Hmm? So if i can transfer from BSci to BMedSci as well as BMedSci(DFEE) to BMedSci(CSP), i may aswell do BSci as it...

Thanks again Survivor your continued help is just destroying all of my questions and is going to give me more information when choosing the courses, then my decisions will be information rich and not information poor. Ok, so Molecular Biotech is gone, done!!. So my prefs have changed again...

I will email them to find out how long before I can apply. I've ben hearing about transfers where, they use your UAI and GPA to calculate a new mark and they use the uai cutoff and your average between your uai and GPA to see if you make it. Then in theory if the cutoff for me needing to...

I have already posted on this forum about my predicaments with the order of my preferences, but I have just looked in the UAC again(for the inifinite time) and seen that the CSP cutoff for 2006 for B MedSci was 85 and the DFEE cutoff was 80. Now my uai is 79.15. I know you can't know for sure...

Thank you survivor39, your info was extremely helpful. Though I won't be doing MedSci at UNSW as my uai is way to low, mine is 79.15, too low. Though I have applied for the maquarie unis med sci, which is 80, so it may go down(also I have a disadvantaged schools thing in the eas scheme) so that...
