I did all of mine today.

uac, utas, vtac, qtac, satac, tisc etc...

Cost a lot of money, took a while, but hey, it'll all be worth it!

How fun is it going to be flying around the country to interviews! (assuming we get them...)



im planning on doing this ( applying all over the place )
im guessing you have to make an account and pay 25 bux for each one ..
question ... how long did it take u to put all preferences in?
i wanna do it this week but have 4 sacs .. thinking of doing it all weekend etc

ALSO
for each of the diff sites . do u need a guide like a vtac guide to find out all the codes ( e.g 28501) for different courseS?

How long would depend on your preparation.  If you know the course codes and know exactly what to put down, it won't take long at all.  Or if you have gone through this process before, it also won't take long.

For each different site, I'm sure they will be like VTAC where they have an online guide to give you the course codes just like VTAC's Course Search.

No, they won't ask you that if you are a current year 12 applicant.  If you're a non-year 12, and you're applying for a few Monash courses, more often than not, you'll have to complete the Pi form and that would be a completely different story.

no im not talking bout Pi form
just in general alot of unis ask for application forms ( which ask few questions e.g why u wanna do med etc etc)
lol gets so frustrating filling out 20 of them

For the scholarship application;

6. Do you have leadership experience or skills?

when you click the hyperlinked words 'leadership experience or skills', it mentions work experience... does that mean if you did work experience you tick yes? or is it only if your work experience involved some kind of leadership stuff
