UoM General Chat

Yeah, getting interview scores would be awesome, if USyd released them then I don't see why others can't

[anti]

Congratulations on getting in guys!  Hope you really enjoy medicine

I wish they released interview scores.. The lowest CSP place I remember seeing (non rural) was like 6.6 GPA with 65 gamsat.

That seems a little high

Nothing gets them off more than 'killing unicorns', that whole site has an unhealthy infatuation with small fuzzy cuddly things

mmm, not really, it seems kinda accurate. offer scores went up a lot because of the new system

Would you go interstate if you didn't get into UoM?

[Russ]

I'm having enough trouble deciding whether or not I want to go to UoM. It's an entirely personal decision to make, depends on what you think/want

[dc302]

Russ what are your other options, if you don't mind me asking?

[Russ]

Honours and then into a PhD. I emailed the guy I was super keen on working with yesterday and regretfully declined, which was a shame because the project was really quite interesting (and WEHI give you $5000 lol). So yeah, I figure I'll start the MD and if I really don't like it then the transition to research is easier than the transition from research into med.

Dc- This has been bothering me for a while, how is it that your BSc is 2 years? Is it possible through pure maths major?

I prefer my explanation, which is that he's crazy.

Yeah in science, maths is one of the very few majors you can complete in 2 years because most other subjects have a specific sequence of subjects you have to follow. I don't think there are many others, if at all, in science.

I see, fair enough. I'm going to miss maths too
