You'll have to make a choice, or take a non-Melbourne route. :(

Damn. See heres the thing. WHat if i dont do well in the GAMSAT? Then that means i cant get into med. And since i havent chosent bio-eng electives i will be left out into the cold.

I will have to do something that i dont like.

That's the sting in the post grad Melbourne Model structure, with law, med, whatever. The entry tests are a total unknown.

PM me if you have any more questions or whatever, I'm doing 2nd yr Science next year and keeping options open still (considering Med or post grad research)

Well not completely unknown. The GAMSAT is well known. And how much is the weighting to gain entry into med?
Like how much % is GAMSAT worth?

ALso (this might sound subjective) but is it "hard" to get in post grad, like wat average mark wud i be looking at?

bturville:
Hard to say, it doesn't start until '11. I have no idea of the standards. They don't mention anything about your uni grades. You will of course be competing against a lot of the biomed kids, plus external applications though.
