--- Quote from: Lear on August 03, 2020, 03:37:06 pm ---While it is great to increase your chances of getting in if you are keen for Medicine, applying for a bonded spot isn't something that should be taken lightly. It is a highly formal agreement you sign with the government to spend 3 years of your life working in areas of need. There is a chance that bonded may impact your career pathway given the highly competitive nature of certain specialties and even after that with jobs. It is really important to do your research regarding whether bonded is worthwhile for you. Individuals are even recommended to have a personal lawyer look over the agreement.

For anyone considering bonded, I HIGHLY recommend having a read of the below thread among others.

isn't it one year now?

ThunderDragon:
Yeah choosing Unbonded may or may not be a good idea depending on your preferences. While it does increase your chances, it could delay the time and preference for your specializations and getting a job in your desired area. It is something that you can't really avoid and get out off. It's ultimately up to you to weight the pros and cons tho and see what the best solution is.

Nope. It used to be one year and now has been made three years.

Hey everyone

UCAT Percentiles just got released and I am so shocked by how all the scores shifted up by about 100. This means that my score which would've been an 84-85th Percentile based on last year has now dropped to 77th Percentile.

I think I qualify for Monash Guarantee. Is there any way possible for me to gain an interview or is there a minimum UCAT needed for MG such as applicants with UCATs below 80th Percentile are unable to get an interview offer?

Thanks
