Hi AN,
To anyone with similar interests or are considering medicine as a career option, I've made this just in case any of you have similar queries or qualms.
So if anyone can answer any of these due to knowledge of experience within medicine that would be great.
Just some I have:
- If I dont get an exceptional ATAR (95+), what is the likelihood that medicine is still attainable?
- What are all the different pathways by which I can get into medicine?
- If I attempt for medicine but do not obtain the necessary requirements, what are other options that are available and are still similar.
- So what about the UCAT and GAMSAT? Is the UCAT only required if you want to get in directly from school or is it used in tandem with your GAMSAT scores?
- Other than Melbourne and Monash, what are some other good universities which offer Medicine? Does Deakin offer it? (According to their website they do but I have only heard about people doing med at monash/melb)
- What are good undergraduate courses to attain the necessary skills and knowledge required for medicine? (I'm thinking medical imaging or something along those lines..)
If anyone is in a similar state and would like to add their own questions then pls do.
Thanks to anyone who gives their 2 cents!
