UMAT

[ganges]

if someone got

50 chem
50 physics
50 spesh
50 methods
50 english
50 language (any)
ENTER 99.95

but fucked up on UMAT really bad.. like was worse than average result.... can they get into med?

yes they would get a scholarship from uni of melbourne, they give it to any1 who gets 99.9 or above.....

Nah, don't think so. I believe that each bracket has a minimum requirement for UMAT and ENTER (there is the ENTER, Hybrid and UMAT brackets, I believe)

Well the UMAT score then is much lower.

But i thought u gained a scholarship if u get 99.9 or above for next year? This is because u dont need to do the UMAT to get into BIOMED anway as they give u a guaranteed entry into med like 2nd or 3 year.

[Collin Li]

Possibly! But I cant imagine them letting anyone into Medicine without making them sit the UMAT or the GAMSAT.

[ganges]

They might offer concession for the GAMSAT then, btw i heard thats like 6 hours long. This really true?

[BA22]

Don't guess

If you really want to pursue this career, do you own thorough research. Perfecty capable applicants screw up their applications every year because they didn't research about admissions processes and policies first.

The GAMSAT is a around 6 hours yes, and it is sat on one day

Anyone got the practice test. I cant seem to understand how they got the answer to:
Section 3
Q.89, Q.101, Q.102, Q.103
anyone can suggest a possible explanation to these questions thanks

[bilgia]

i know 102. the sequence is BCDAE
star moves once diagonal, then once clockwise
the black dot moves in anti clockwise direction.
(took me a while lol)

89. pretty simple..
  i just wrote out a-->z and u can see a pattern
 A-->B (0 in between)
D-->G (2 in between)
K-->P (4 in between)
V-->C (6 in betweeen) So the answer combination must have 8 in between...
AND
the second thing there is to notice the distance between the last letter and first of the nxt grouping increases
i.e. B - D (1) (not including B and D)etc..
G-K (3)
P-V (5)
C-??? must be (7)
So we arrive at K and there is only 1 solution with K in it ..so thats the answer

[Rosie]

Thanks for that. I still cant seem to get the answer of Q.101 in the practise test.
Sorry about the questions but I'm also stuck on Q.12 and Q.14
thanks

Does anyone know whether there is a site which provides suggested solutions for these ACER practice questions or a forum which discuss the answers ?

[bilgia]

question 101. ignore position of shapes
Each box loses a shape
start with A which loses the single headed arrow since it aint in any other boxes so u still have the other 3, which are all present in B repeat the same process. B loses the 4 headed arrow since it isnt in the rest of the options..then u get E. and so forth.

they are discussing this practice test on medstudents online forum:
