Idk, I haven't found revising them so bad. It's not like you're going to have to remember every single drug we can use to kick and kill the CD4 T-cells and they would be major dickish to expect you to remember all of those soluble markers associated with an infection.

Hmm yeah I agree. Also I just did the practice questions and they weren't too bad. I'm just not really a fan of immunology in general and the fact that its one, long 114-slide lecture is really daunting lol.

I think it's even less. I heard that they reserve 5 spots for UoM students though? (not chancellor just mortal undergrads I mean)

In any case, the numbers are pretty tragic

Looked at GEMSAS admissions guide for the DDS, says nothing about any spots reserved for UoM students (apart from Chancellors). Wonder where they got that info from.

Holy shit just saw that a 6.95 GPA and 69 (67 Melbourne weighted) GAMSAT got a FFP. Competition is truly insane. Pretty much everybody on PD got a FFP apart from one person with a 69 Melbourne gammy and 6.77 GPA.

That's strange.. I know someone who got the same combo and go CSP? :/

Hmm..the plot thickens. Maybe it's the same poster but they got upgraded to a CSP later? Shrug.

Yeah, it changes every GAMSAT sitting; a 69 in GAMSAT UK corresponded to around 98th percentile. Either way, pretty damn high cut-off.
