    Entry Requirements and their weightings for UWS Medicine

    Hi, does anybody know the respective weightings of each component needed to gain entry into UWS medicine? I have heard that once you reach the UAI threshold, they scrap consideration of the UAI and rely on one third UMAT and two-thirds interview score. Is this true? If it is, I'm going to be...

    What to do if you have not heard from UWS:

    Hey guys, Just thought I'd let people know what to do if you haven't heard from UWS. I hadn't heard from UWS regarding my med application, but luckily the resident med-affairs expert Wooz provided a number for Lyndal in the other thread, and I called. Turns out, they hadn't received half of...

    Geometrical Examples of Mathematical Induction

    Hey guys, I was wondering if I should be bothered to learn this. My teacher said that in the whole twenty-five years of experience, she has NEVER EVER SEEN a question in ANY exam including HSC, and that it's only taught because technically it MAY be examined as it's in the syllabus. So I...
