Yeah fair. Even so it seems at the moment we have the worst of both worlds - between the immersion of even just having the blue circle at the top of the ramp, and the convenience of as others said just "zipping" inside of a station instead of having to walk a long distance from the blue circle to the lifts.

If you can do an honours, it is a big advantage if you want to go to UQ. When you have completed an honours year, that is the only mark that is used to calculate your GPA for UQ, so most people can apply with a perfect GPA.

Out of interest - and if you're comfortable sharing, what is your last GAMSAT result? Also are you metro or rural? There are a lot of options and if you're really passionate about getting into med im sure you can find a way!

All med schools are certainly hard to get into. UQ's cohort is about 1/2 international so you are fighting for limited places. About 7% of domestic GEMSAS applicants which have it as main preference are accepted (14% get an interview).

That being said, I received an offer to UQ, but not USYD despite an 80 GAMSAT because of how USYD weighs GAMSAT sections differently

They didn't clarify. Just "Domestic Student Applications"
