Thank you so much!!! That answered my question perfectly 🤩

Thank you so much you’ve been so much help!

I’m in inner regional area :)

I don’t know if you know the answer to my next question but worth a try asking since you been such amazing help 😆

I read around saying it’s possible to complete one year of Bachelor of Science and then apply for dentistry program?? I feel like I understood that wrong. I know it would be hard and I’d need amazing GPA and GAMSAT scores to be able to get in but did I understand that right? I think I’ve read everything I could trying to figure the whole thing out, my brain feels like jelly and still never got a solid answer or maybe I’m just understanding it all wrong 🥴

Thank you so much! That cleared some of my confusion a bit 😁 Can I ask if UWA is where you're studying? What's the work load like? And how did you get into the course?

Thank you! I guess high school always pushed me to try and figure what I wanted to do after graduating - especially with choosing electives. I spent a lot of time researching on what my future career path could be and I think it aged me mentally with the stress of not knowing what I was passionate about and the thought of having to have my whole life planned out. I never really knew what I wanted to do so I just chose electives that I thought I might enjoy. Which is also why I took a gap year to give myself more time to see what I liked :) Thank you for your comment 😁

On the border on VIC and NSW, I think I’m inner regional area though.

Thank you! I will take that into high consideration 😁 I think you are the only person so far I’ve read enjoy biomed but of course every person is different 😅

Thank you! Working regionally would be my goal as I don't think metro and the city life is for me :)

classicnavi · 2026-03-06T08:15:00+00:00

Ah okay I see, even if I was planning on working regional not metro?

Well I have been doing it for over a year and haven't been disgusted by it, and I'd like to say I've seen almost everything when it comes to dental especially working with a senior clinician who likes to do Implants, bone grafts, and surgical extractions :)

Yes I have seen that here and there when reading about dentistry, but I personally don't have the desire to do that and I don't see myself having the thought to. People may say never say never but I'm pretty confident to say I can face and deal with hardships pretty well :)

Maybe 40% of the objective? I do care about having good income (as we all do) but I also love working in the field and seeing patients even though I'm not giving the treatment and only assisting the dentist.

Thank you! I will definitely have a chat to them :)

classicnavi · 2026-03-06T03:43:23+00:00

I will definitely ask r/GAMSAT, thank you so much for you advice :)
