So with my subjects would I be ok especially for Monash Undergrad especially without methods? I can obviously do the biology course, but any other concerns with my subject selection?

Yeah you will be fine its all about maximising your ATAR and doing the prereqs. Note: I would do methods since it does open a lot more other undergraduate courses in case you don't get into the undergraduate program.

Don't know which years are which at Monash. You probably need historical data on your cohort to be able to estimate it though.

Ah I got to improve loads for the clinical years then for a decent z score cheers. I thought they only used our exam marks but with research I found out they don't for our preclinical years :(

How's everyone finding their year so far?

Just finished my second week on the wards, and it's been pretty fun! We haven't been able to do any procedures yet but wow I've found out how chatty some patients are!
