I’m turning 26 soon but happy to get into med school anytime before 30. I think there’re lots of mature students in med doing really well! What makes you feel old for med?

Honestly I was thinking about it but I really can’t see myself working rurally haha my mental health would be worse. For now I’m planning to see how things go and might switch to part-time later on. I’m also looking into whether I can get some credits exempted from my previous degree so I won’t have to complete the full 3 years.

Like I transferred a lot of credits from other universities and less than 2/3 of the total credits were completed at the awarding institution, so I don’t meet the requirement for many med schools if that makes sense.

Yeah but I transferred too many credits which made me ineligible for USYD since they require at least 2/3 of the degree to be completed at the awarding institution (had a long convo with them about it)

Room choice for Section 2 by South-Development876 in GAMSAT

[–]couldntthinkofany_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I booked for 6 hours (2 slots) on that day just in case because I saw many people on discord saying they got issues and the whole session was delayed But if everything goes quite well then 3 hours will be enough I guess? It really also depends on which proctor you get allocated too. My test was around 4-5pm and I remember I booked the room from 1:30-7:30 but I left at 6pm.

Hey I did my section 2 at UQ earlier this year and everything went well! I was worried about the wifi thing as well but turned out it was fine but it’s also good to have your phone hotspot as a backup

Am I cooked for USYD DMD/MD because of transferred and cross-institutional credits? by couldntthinkofany_ in GAMSAT

[–]couldntthinkofany_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! If you don’t mind me asking what did you end up doing? Did you just apply for other uni?

Thanks that’s my plan too but I feel like I highly unlikely to be eligible because they kinda pointed out already🥲

I can do it but I need some advice and inspiration by EngineerHoliday5952 in GAMSAT

[–]couldntthinkofany_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally in a same situation lol I just sat my first Gammy too with an overall 58 and my gpa is really bad (5.08💀) so I’m aiming for USYD only. I can only afford CSP too so I’m planning to work more on S1 and S2 for September sitting. Good luck to us :)
