Yeah but a good ENTER and a good UMAT doesn't = MBBS offer
yep. getting 99.95 and 100%ile in umat is worth nothing if you can't talk even look in the interviewer's eyes.
(with that said, getting these scores is incredible/amazing/unimaginable and you'd probably get an offer if you had satisfactory communication skills :\ )
A friend of mine (KL):
2008:
- Biology 50
2009:
- English 50
- Chemistry 50
- Physics 50
- Maths Methods 50
- Specialist Maths 46
In the end:
99.95
Also, he scored 100-percentile in the UMAT (a high 100-percentile by his overall score)
And he was accepted to Monash MBBS CSP Unbonded course.
So yeah, people who are smart actually do well on the interviews as well -- so keep that in mind too.
He is amazing - should be an inspiration for any VCE students out there he did the incredible/amazing/unimaginable thing you were talking about.
pfft, what a joke of a scoresheet, jks. Mr. KL is a good friend of mine and the dux of my school, amazinggggg guy in academia, but is also very socially capable. When I was in his class during 2008, I had no doubt that he would 100 UMAT and 99.95 the ENTER, but also ace the interview. He always had the talent, but I guess a little bit of hard work got him these unbelievable scores. However, at my uni info day, I met 3 other people who achieved exactly the same scores, so I guess he now has competition; nonetheless, he is amazing.
