It is. Med itself is crazy. Doing Law simultaneously will kill you.

Then again, Monash has a MBBS/PhD as well :P

Yep, both MBBS/LLB and the MBBS/PhD are for those who prefer studying over life :P (simply put)

I won't even get into MBBS at Monash but if I did, I would love to do the MBBS/LLB. I've read that you apply at the end of first year MBBS though and apparently you need some ridiculous average mark.

Anyone know how it would work?

Do the 6 remaining years after your first year and then go into an internship etc (assuming you want to become a medical doctor)?

You just finish both degrees (7 years all up) and then do your internship and then whatever you want as per normal. tbh, I can't see many uses for having both.

Just emphasising how ridiculously ruined your social life will be if you choose this option. Either degree by itself is very hard to do well in.

Would feel amazing to know that you have an MBBS and LLB and you would be amongst a select few people who have it. I wonder how many people gain entrance into the course on average every year.

If you're as good at being an entrepreneur as you are at studying, you could start a law firm and start a clinic or private hospital :P

I strongly recommend against doing it. Seriously.

This is all hypothetical, of course. The likelihood of me getting Monash MBBS is almost non-existent, let alone maintaining an average high enough to gain entrance into the MBBS/LLB.

What about the MBBS/PhD?

That's a little more reasonable and much more useful to have a credential, however, expect LOTS of hard work there when it gets up and going.

Just a quick question before I head off. Two lectures I'd like to attend are the Science degrees for high-achieving students and the MBBS admissions presentations. However, one finishes at 2pm and the other starts at 2pm. How long does it take to walk from Building 25 to Building 7?
