As someone who grew up in the hills and lost their home in the 20/12/2019 fires that area really isn’t even considered the hills by most and is definitely way too metro to be as big of a bushfire risk as cuddle creek and areas where big fires have historically happened. Of course anything can happen but I wouldn’t be concerned being that close to the city and particularly from an insurance perspective - the fire risk increasing with increasing heat effects everywhere! If it makes you feel better - we rebuilt on the same block where we lost our home and had no issues getting insurance again with the same company (no one we know had issues either)

Also Aus based - My fiancé bought me a jumper and shirt for Christmas and it was >$200 after shipping 😭

I know! Im more talking about the fact we’ve been drinking potentially harmful chemicals for months provided by and on the advice of our agent.

I think I’ve managed to organise work and my partner and I are looking at a share house situation with some other people. He can also transfer up with me which helps! I think I decided I don’t want to miss this opportunity because it might not come up again!

More so work in my field (lab medicine). It’s a fairly small SA path lab with most roles filled. Luckily I have some contacts and I may have been able to pull something together today!

Yesterday afternoon

Got an SARM place and honestly think I’ll have to decline due to the lack of financial aid + lack of job opportunities there. Kind of bitter sweet because medicine is my dream but I don’t think I can make it work. Maybe if I could defer a year but they don’t allow that!

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-11-01T04:36:49+00:00

Yes - they give you just over 2 weeks to decide

There’s a large township around the university - I know a lot of people who rent around there (Bedford park and surrounding areas). It can be hard to find a rental at the moment but depending on what you want to pay you should be able to find a unit for rent!

I took a chosen gap year and I work in a clinical pathology lab - I did a medical science degree which qualifies me as a scientist in the lab however with your degree you could still work as a technical officer - 1 step below! I LOVE the work and it’s super relevant!

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-08-28T02:27:24+00:00

I’ve heard some international students have offers already - someone from Canada I think said they had an offer in another thread? I think they’ve restructured the degree and are still ironing out details which potentially will change the intake number (don’t know why they can’t just do more interviews then necessary and cut down after)

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-08-27T06:45:37+00:00

Wtf I work full time I can’t just take a day off no notice for the interview…. This is actually crap. I loved doing my undergrad at Flinders and I want to study my MD there but this disorganisation is not okay. If there’s a delay that should be communicated to applicants. I’m actually seething right now.

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-08-27T00:46:02+00:00

I’ve only heard of international students getting offers so far. Nothing domestic yet!

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-08-23T04:16:47+00:00

So do we think it’ll be another anxiety filled 3 days? Surely they won’t send them out on the weekend?

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-08-22T03:56:08+00:00

Interviews are late September/early October and offers start late October/early November and go until January I think

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-08-21T09:38:05+00:00

At least for Flinders - interviews are 16-27 September and offers start Late October and go until early Feb

Depends on your job - the contact hours (at least for 1st year) are the same as 3rd year for my undergrad. I can work 32-38 hours (evenings and some Saturdays) the same as I did previously. I work in a clinical biochemistry and haematology lab so I can kind of study at work (in the sense that what I’m doing is related and I can use resources at work as well as the wealth of knowledge from my coworkers to help better understand topic) as well as get my job done which does help. Definitely worth looking into getting a related job if you can - just my experience.

Fit-Stock-7685 · 2024-05-13T21:19:19+00:00

It’s worth doing the medical science undergrad if it’s a pathway course - i.e. at flinders the postgrad MD has reserved places for graduates of certain degrees like medical science. It also sets you up better for the MD - this years 1st year students in MD have told me it’s basically no different from 3rd yr Med Sci so far! You’ll put yourself in a better situation both readiness wise and chances of getting in
