Biomedicine and KLD

[Maverick]

I recently completed VCE and scored 96.9. I was part of the Kwong Lee Dow programme in 2011 and am for an under-represented school.

My 1st preference is Biomedicine at Melbourne Uni and the minimum ATAR is 90 (if part of KLD and from an under-represented school) so I will get in right?

January 16th can not come fast enough

Yep you're straight in

Did you apply for access Melbourne ? If so, you should have got an email when your ATAR came out saying that you have a guaranteed spot in biomed......u should be fine mate

[Hutchoo]

Yeah, you'll get in! Don't stress

[Maverick]

Thanks!

Yes I applied for access but did not receive an email. That could be as I changed my preferences to Melbourne from Monash after the ATARs were released. I hope so.

Good luck to anyone else wanting to get into BioMed

You should contact the uni and make sure that you'll get an offer, we handled a couple of people with non-standard circumstances who hadn't received their guaranteed offer email.

[Maverick]

Do you know who is the best to contact?

[nbhindi]

1800 801 662 - That's the number I called to confirm my guaranteed spot.....don't stress mate you will be fine......welcome to team biomed!

[Maverick]

Thanks again, I will call tomorrow

[Maverick]

Have not called yet, do you think they will just answer this question over the phone? What is the question by the way, something like "can you confirm if I have a guaranteed place?"

[Stick]

As a KLD recipient, you can guarantee your place at UoM with an ATAR of 95. If Biomedicine is your only preference there, I assume that would mean you get in (but I'm not sure).

[nbhindi]

They did for me......don't see why not.

Yeah just tell them your score/kLD/rural staus and that you have met the preqs and if that gaurantees you a spot. Also ask if your SEAS has been accepted

Believe it was a 92 for a guaranteed spot. So, you might in second round.
