    Undergrad Med at UWS

    I go there! I've just finished 1st year (pending exams, although 1st year wasn't too bad I wouldn't mind doing it again :P) I've really enjoyed the course this year. Getting to see patients on your 4th day is pretty fantastic. The pracs, pbls and lectures tie in really well. The year group (of...

    how hard to get 160 umat mark?

    There is no way to guess what raw marks you will need to get 160, but it would be around the 70% percentile. However, you may need a higher score - unless there is a different cut off for international students. For domestic students you would be looking at at least the 90% - which is around 180

    UWS med

    Well I have only just been accepted for this years intake, but I have heard a lot of good things about it. My umat was overall 60, or 91%. I believe the cut - off this year to reach the interview stage was 145 weighted (but the year before was only 138). UWS weights the umat 1:1:0.5. So my...

    Yes, I received an unbonded offer to UWS in the main round with a 96.15 atar. The atar (95.40 I think, or 93.55 if you are local) is just a threshold.

    Acer practice tests results v Umat scores

    I thought it would be a good idea for any 2009 umaters to post up both their practice scores and actual scores to try and gauge a very rough estimate of what others can except. Practice test 2009 (same as practice test 1 2010 besides the few extra questions): Section 1 : 32/44 Section 2 ...

    Umat second time around?

    I'm in uni now. You can sit the umat a second time and apply as a non-standard applicant, at least to uws where I want to go. If i was you I wouldn't repeat, you can just start a degree and use your uni marks to apply for another course.
