Hey guys,
Just wondering what u guys think will be the likely umat cutoffs for 2013,2014,2015 at Monash Med - since Medicine is growing popular and very competitive each year?
Thanks

I doubt it will ever get past 97%ile. So I'm going with 195, 196, 197 respectively.

I've heard that too

Although, I forgot when making my "predictions". In that case, probably only 2013/14 will be relevant to you.

Can you or pi elaborate?

I find it very disconcerting that Melbourne may have succeeded in completely destroying tertiary education in this country.  :/

(I don't usually do this, but I found it necessary in this case)

Sorry can I ask what the UMAT is out of? I need a 160 so what is that in percentage or percentile?

Yeah, moving to postgraduate education is a good thing IMO. Also takes off stress on the vce.

No-one really knows, but I'd have a guess of 330? I'd say 160 is ~65th%ile



@Stonecold, no real "hard evidence", just a rumour that I've heard from many people JDog may have more on it though

[nina_rox]

Thanks pi. That's seems pretty reasonable.

They must be doing something right because demand for places exploded this year (as illustrated by the Clearly-IN ATARs) .

I guess a lot of students aren't sure what they want to do by the end of Year 12, so the Melbourne Model allows them to study their interests, work towards a career and give them more time to decide.

Yeah...nah. Offering ridiculous amounts of places to SEAS applicants and then going, LOOK HOW HIGH OUR ATAR IS FOR NON-SEAS is not "demand exploding"; it is letting in students with lesser scores in preference to some with higher scores raising the overall ATAR cut-off.

That happened for arts and science?
