Melbourne Model Med

^ yeah there is no difference in doing biomed or science, just need to have the prereqs.

Slight differences as Russ pointed out but otherwise no major differences that would disadvantage you in terms of meeting the pre-requisites for the MD. 

Another main difference between B.Sci and B.BMed is that in B.Sci, you can't major in "Defence and Disease".  All other majors available in B.BMed is available for B.Sci students as well.  So if you're into defence and disease, aim for biomed.

There is one for BSc, it's called 'Pathology'.

I meant that in terms of getting into medicine (chances wise), doing science or biomed makes no difference..

You can major in Pathology in Biomed...
The majors available to biomed students are all the health/biology related ones from Science (ie human structure/microbiology/etc)

And I wouldn't say it makes no difference, I think it's just a relatively small thing in the scheme of things.
