Interview offers 2013

[pi]

Sorry I meant email. I've even tried logging him onto the website directly and it didn't work so he definitely has/did not get an offer.

Edit: I would also like to congratulate everyone who has received an interview offer. Well done and good luck! I received an offer as well

Congrats to you (not unexpected haha)

Tell your friend to call the med admissions tomorrow or email them [email protected] to clarify how they've done it and where he went wrong.

Sounds really dodgy.

Try to send them an email today. I don't know about med admission but MBBS Student Service Office closes from 12.00pm on Friday December 20 until 9.30am on Thursday January 2.

I've relayed all the advice to him. Thanks for all your help! I'll keep you guys updated on how this turns out.

Again, congrats to everyone who received an interview offer and to those who didn't, don't give up. There are many alternate pathways and if you are passionate enough, there is nothing stopping you from eventually doing your dream course (medicine presumably).

Yeah, I was shocked too.

Example: 78th percentile and 99.55 ATAR was offered an interview.

Lol. 99.8 and 75th percentile with no offer here

Edit: read wrong section of my email. So i got one. So is selection based purely off of the interviews now?

^ That might be it! Good thinking!

[hongkyho]

Ask your friend whether he got above 50 in each section of the umat. That was one of the prerequisites

Spot on! Cannot believe I forgot about this, but yeah, my friend got a 49 for Section 2. When he called them, they said that they have not released all the offers yet, but this explains why he has not received an email yet.

Thanks a lot, OutstandingInDivination! Much appreciated.

Hi guys,
I'm the guy Hong Ky was talking about, are they really that strict on that rule?
Please tell me there is some leniency, it really sucks out to miss out like this

Sorry, if they put 50-50-50 as a prerequisite, there is no way they are going to be nice to you and give you an interview offer. Have you applied to other unis? Some universities do not have this rule (such as university of western sydney and university of adelaide (you should have your adelaide interview by now))

Sorry to hear that mate, but they are strict on rules :/

Nah, I only applied for UNSW and I think UWS, oh well, Actuarial studies it is.

[SocialRhubarb]

Haha, it put my email in the junk folder. Got really worried for a second.

Cheers for clearing it up guys, hope those of you who received interviews do well!!!
Best of luck!

[teletubbies_95]

Good luck for the interviews guys! All of you will do amazingly!

[oceanblues]

Just letting people know that they email rejection letters too.
Sounds like things are different this year by the sound of it (in regards to the atar/Umat combinations)
Good luck for the interviews guys!
