Subjects For GAMSAT

Hey guys,

I was considering doing the GAMSAT and I really want to know what subjects would greatly help me in the GAMSAT.

I am currently enrolled in Science at UoM (first year) and I am doing:

BIOL1004 Biology of Cells and Organisms
BIOL1005 Genetics & the Evolution of Life

CHEM1003 Chemistry 1
CHEM1004 Chemistry 2

PSYC10003 Mind, Brain and Behaviour 1
PSYC10004 Mind, Brain and Behaviour 2

But I am considering doing PHYC10003 Physics 1 in second semester instead of Psychology.

Would you guys say that Physics 1 would greatly help me in the GAMSAT even though I have already done Year 12 Physics?

Is there anything else you guys recommend?

Thanks for all the help in advance.

Just letting you know that physics 1 only runs semester 1.

Thanks clueless123 I didn't know this (no sarcasm). Now I have to rethink what subjects to do in first year.

Well your post mentioned you were thinking about doing it in sem 2 :P

Anyway, the only *new* things you learn in physics 1 that isn't exactly covered in VCE physics is special relativity and motion relating to circular objects such as angular velocity, moments of inertia etc.
I don't think those topics are on the gamsat tho.

Oh that's a relief. So I will just probably keep my subjects they way they are then. Thank you for the help :) . One thing though, do you know if I can do Creative Writing in second semester as a breadth?

Those subjects should be fine and the physics is year 12 level. Use this for section 2 practice http://www.ellipsoid.org/gmi/random-quote-generator
