Edit: yeh, it was hard searching for names...I gave up at about "F"

 

[velox]

what was the cut off or did it use umat? Im a little confused on how you get into it?

 

[nit]

well basically you needed a uai of 99.95 or 100. You needed strong science marks and/or me2 marks and a band 6 in english in the hsc. Other requirements were as for TSP. Then 29 people were interviewed and 10(?) chosen.

You manage 99.95+ a D avg isn't gonna be that hard though if you work at it, right?

bragging rights? its got a different name?
easier to get into GRAD med from this degree, so less stress, also considering the 10 ppl chosen all got 99.95 and over, they should be able to top adv sci in the subjects they do

D avg isn't too hard, for someone who got 99.95-100 they'll get a HD avg for sure. as long as they put in the effort of course
