What UMAT is needed with a 99.90 ATAR?

If I get a 99.90 ATAR, and do average on my interview (I'm not very good at interviews and logically explaining my thought process), what UMAT would I need to be likely to be offered a place in monash med?

Knowing this would just help ease my mind for the upcoming UMAT, because my average in med entry exams is a raw score in the low 80s/134 - do you know what percentile this would translate to in the real UMAT?

Being a Vic student 99.90 plus 85ish %ile should give you 50/50 chance at Monash. Note 50/50 is meant to say you need to get around the median interview score i.e. average of the interview cohort not average in the general sense.

you never know how well you will do on the interview :)

If you got 99.90 you would probably need like 80+ UMAT to get a spot. However I do know that some people have got 99.9+ and 90+ UMAT and not got a 1st round place -> happened to get like 3/4th round bonded.

EDIT: however also people have got 99.7+ and low 60's UMAT for a spot , so you can never be too sure whether you will or won't get a place

I know this doesn't answer your question but if you're worriered about your interview MedEntry also provides interview workshops which I found really helped me prepare and be more confident going into my interview
