Clearly in Rank For Biomedicine

Just a Quickie, Do you guys think the Clearly-In Rank [95.00] for Biomedicine will increase for 2010 Entry, due to the fact that the courses now known as "graduate courses" are now no longer available at the undergraduate level. Thus, the demand for Biomedicine is much greater ? Also I also would like to know why the pre-requisit for this course is decreasing from 35 For Chem to 25 effective 2011. Thanks Guys

I had the same concern, but for my year, they kept the ENTER the same and just accepted more people. I'd assume they will do the same again. As for the decrease in the prereq, I have no idea why they did this.

Hi, I'm a Kwonger and when I went to an open day at UoM, I asked the same question and they said that they will keep that benchmark of 95.00 and will not change it regardless of the amount of people who enrol in it. Hope this helps
2010: Business Management [47]
2011: English [44]   |   Chemistry [45]  |   Methods [44]   |   Specialist [42]   |   MUEP Chemistry [5.0]   |   ATAR: 99.60
UMAT: 69 | 56 | 82 | = [69 / 98th Percentile]
2012: MBBS I @ Monash

That's only if you applied for either both or one of SEAS category 5+6.

First of all well done with your ENTER.

I looked at the ENTER for 09 places in biomed and they stayed at 95, so hopefully that calms your nerves and you already got a 36 for chemistry so no matter what, you have that prerequisite out of the way.

Anyway good luck to you and I hope you guys all get into what you want. I can't believe it's going to be 2 years since I started year 12 (types with tear in eye).
