Hey there! I did my Bachelor's in biomedicine at Melbourne Uni - most of the students in my cohort completed either science/biomed at Melbourne/Monash but there are also students who completed non-science degrees and graduated from other universities as well :) Hope this helps!

This is so helpful thank you! I'm dreading the GAMSAT. I'm in my first year of my 3 year undergrad, so just to confirm, I could start sitting the GAMSAT as early as next year? I'm anticipating having to resit after hearing people usually do multiple sittings lol

Thanks for sharing such valuable information. We are living in Sydney and my kid has got an offer from ‘Guaranteed offer FFP’ from Melbourne Uni because her atar was just over 99. I was curious how hard to pass the MMI for the FFP places. Also the condition is to achieve the wam over 75 in the biomedicine course. Is it difficult to maintain the wam?

@AvaKim123

Жыл бұрын

Hi there! With guaranteed places, you generally need to do just enough to pass the MMIs. However, given that sometimes the number of eligible students for guaranteed places often far exceeds that of the places allocated within Melbourne Medical School, I'd recommend giving the MMIs a fair go and trying to do well in them. It isn't hard to pass the MMIs with at least a basic understanding of the structure of the interviews and some practice, but it can be more difficult to do very well. To do very well, students should invest a lot of time into practising and receive assistance if necessary. Finally, getting a WAM over 75 in biomedicine is not too difficult. Again, this really depends on the student and how much effort they put into their studies but with an ATAR of 99+ I assume your daughter is studious, and it shouldn't be a problem! Hope this helps

Hi, the unis using gemsas, can you still apply to them directly or is it not possible, because it sounds like if you can only do one interview, it is much lower chances to get in, almost like if you dont believe your truly top level you should put higher preferences to easier unis to get into just to have a chance. for example, If i get an offer from melbourne uni for interview, the interview is worth 50% so its still very hard to get in from that point.

@AvaKim123

Hi Ewan, For universities under GEMSAS, you can only apply via the GEMSAS portal and you aren't able to apply to each university directly. I would however discourage you from ranking medical schools based on what you perceive might increase your chances. If you don't get interview offers from your top preferences but you do from your lower preferences, you've still got a solid chance of getting into one of your lower preferences. However when you put 'easier' universities at the top and you get an interview from them, your chances of getting into the 'harder' universities would be minimal. Hope this helps.

Hi there, There are no prerequisite subjects required for most (if not all) Australian post-graduate medical schools. Universities like the University of Melbourne used to have prerequisites but they got rid of it a couple of years ago. I'm not too sure about other countries though sorry!

I will be completing my Bachelors in Microbiology. Can i apply for medschool as an international student?

Hello Ava. I'm in NZ and I'm planning to apply for medical school at the University of Melbourne. I'll be considered an international student though when I do because I still don't have my citizenship and when I am applying for it - my citizenship will still be in application and it usually takes around 6 months or a year for it to get approved. I'm wondering if I get an ATAR of 99 and I'm an international student - I'd be considered an FFP student, right? But after a year, I'd have gotten my citizenship by then. So will I still be considered an FFP student (paying the full tuition fee as an international student) or will I be considered a domestic student and don't have to pay the international fee? What about my guaranteed spot in medical school? Also, as an international student when applying, can I still be considered for the Chancellor's scholarship? Also when I apply to the university of Melbourne, I may only be 17 and my birthday is in December since I may have skipped a grade in High school. Would that affect anything? I hope you reply to my comment. I'm sorry if I sounded dumb here, but I'm only in Y9 (we have 13 years of high school here. and I may become Y11 next year if I skip a grade) but I think that it's good to start learning about these things early. Sorry about all the questions.

@AvaKim123

Жыл бұрын

Hi there Joe :) There are a lot of questions to be answered here so I'll try to address the main things (and don't apologise for asking! It's great to see you being proactive and trying to figure things out early) First of all, International student places and FFPs are two different things; FFPs (full-fee paying places) are for domestic students and their uni fees are similar to that of international students. I unfortunately am not too sure about what happens when your citizenship status changes halfway through a degree - I would think that your initial offer of entry would be based on your citizenship status so I personally think that if you get accepted into undergrad as an international student, you would be paying international student fees for the whole degree. However, if you earn your citizenship prior to applying for medical school, you can apply as a NZ/AUS citizen and therefore be eligible to gain all the benefits that domestic students can get. As for the Chancellor's scholarship, you can access it as an international student, but the benefits are different to that of a domestic student. You will get 50% off your bachelor's fees and you will get a guaranteed place in medical school as an international full-fee paying student. Your age when graduating high school will not matter. Best of luck with everything 😊

I would assume so; but I'm not too sure.

Hi, I'm currently international high school students who want to get into medical school in Australia in the future. However, besides medicine, I'm also considering studying bachelor's degree in computing science. So for now, I am thinking about pursuing both degrees as a double major(both computer science and biomedical) student in the future. how do you think about the schoolwork if I do that? could you give me some suggestions, please? thanks

@AvaKim123

Жыл бұрын

Hi there, Pursuing a double degree would be a great idea if you have diverse interests and would like expand your knowledge and insight into multiple fields. In saying that, this would mean that you would be studying for longer and if both degrees are quite content and time intensive, you might find the experience stressful but rewarding nonetheless. In Australia, most medical schools have gotten rid of prerequisite requirements so it doesn't matter what you choose to study in undergrad - instead , what matters is your GPA. If you want to be competitive for medical school, you want to ensure you put yourself in a situation where you can achieve a good GPA. This unfortunately means that if you pursue a degree that is traditionally known to be difficult to score well in, it can negatively affect your GPA and make it harder to get into medicine. For some reference, most of the students in my current cohort did a single degree in biomedicine or science in undergrad. However, I think it's always good to approach your undergrad degree not simply as a means to get into med school, but as an opportunity to explore your interests! I can't give you a solid answer, but hopefully I've given you things to think about as you decide.

I'm not sure if you're a domestic or an international student but the entry requirements are different depending on which category you fall into.

@@KK-jm6wk If you are applying to post-graduate medicine in Australia, your high school results have no significance whatsoever (your GPA from undergraduate/further studies is what matters). However, if you are looking to apply to undergraduate medicine in Australia, from my understanding, universities accept other forms of secondary school exams but I'm not sure if the Cambridge curriculum is also valid; you might have to contact the appropriate universities directly. In terms of which country is harder, that is hard to say.
