MBBS @ UQ :)

Congrats! :)

How long did it take you to log-in? I'm still waiting lol...


btw, does anyone have any information on the process for applying for "irregular offers" via QTAC? Any help in this area would be VERY much appreciated :)

Haha I had to try about 15 times before I got in...but yeah need to apply for irregular as well, cos I chose MBBS provisional as opposed to science/MBBS which is a streamlined degree in 6 years...woops

I think if you search your course in that link you should be able to find the 2012 clearly in, though. Something to do while you wait? :P

Yeah when I applied for uq I was curious as to what provisional medicine was compared to bsc/mbbs and the others

provisional means you can do any bachelor degree with a guaranteed graduate med pathway, whereas BSci/MBBS is "one degree" that is completed it 6 years. If you go the provisional pathway it is 3 year bachelor degree + 4 years graduate med.

pi, I haven't done it yet but there's a walkthrough as to how you do it, it looks pretty simple...

Sorry if this sounds really noob, but could you link me please (or is it in the admissions thingy under a tab - I can't open new tabs without it crashing with lag-.-)? I seriously can't find this... :(

CONGRATS EVERYONE! AN has so many Med kids :)

Just in case anyone was wondering, I think this is the procedure (I still can't find the link btw):
1) Change your prefs by moving the lower preference up and save
2) Pick the second option regarding responding to the offer
3) Wait?

edit: this link helps :) http://www.qtac.edu.au/InfoSheets/OrderingPreferences.html

Do you think I'll have a good chance of getting JCU in the second round? They called me yesterday offering me a place and that they'd send me some info by mail, but that was too late to change prefs :(

Yep that looked like how you do it pi, theres two options on the application page - accept your offer and other (decline/defer/irregular etc) pretty much.

Just changed my prefs, you simply reorder your preferences, then it comes up with a selection to "accept this offer but still be considered for higher preferences" or "reject this offer and still be considered for higher preferences"

Also, I've found out the cutoffs for UQ MBBS

UMAT of 180.66
Meaning you had to achieve a score with a 180 and if you were tied with someone for a score of 180, a score of 66 in Section 1 was needed!

Damn.. I should have put MBBS as pref. 1 zz.

Post by: Menang on January 13, 2012, 02:52:07 pm
Offered arts/law at UQ. :)

Will probably go for ANU, though, but the clearly in for anyone interested was an ATAR of 97, I think.
