So, you use money as a gate to control who does it.. i dont like that idea.

I dont think *everyone* would do it, if they had no interest in getting to medicine, they wouldnt care/ want the extra stress near exam time/ pay for prep.

Just my 2c.

(Also if money is the gate, why does the price keep raising, instead of some token fee.)

I don't think its very fair, especially for disadvantaged students, $200 is a lot of money and if they want a decent shot $570 for med-entry. In a country that prides a fair go for everyone... this just aint so fair..

lol good joke. $200 is just if you don't have a medicare card. I think it's $80 for medicare card holders
