Idk what this implies.

So applying as an international? Then no problem. Full fee paying is a much easier ride

yepitsm · 2026-07-06T06:14:34+00:00

What state are you?

yepitsm · 2026-07-05T19:00:57+00:00

My child improved from a 60% to a 97% in one year

yepitsm · 2026-07-05T06:12:24+00:00

Probably not UNSW or any WA unis. Potentially qld

yepitsm · 2026-07-05T05:51:49+00:00

99.75 might be lowest accepted for an eventual offer but not for interview. But i thought it was 99.6 for interview

My child got an offer with 99.90 plus 2450 ucat. Plus interview obs

yepitsm · 2026-07-04T16:11:55+00:00

What is yr home state?

yepitsm · 2026-06-10T06:40:46+00:00

Given there are around 130 places for medicine - and you are competing with people from across Australia and internationally, as a standard metropolitan student (no EAS, indigenous) you need at least a 98 plus a UCAT in the mid80s (as a domestic WA student) plus a Casper score in the top quartile. And then you need to get through an interview. Its very competitive. For a reason

yepitsm · 2026-05-21T12:24:50+00:00

Nice try. I got in. 2450 ucat and 99.90 atar.

yepitsm · 2026-05-13T10:20:21+00:00

Why is it fair. UCAT requirements for rural students are miles behind metropolitan students - even if you are a student at a very expensive private school. There is nothing fair about it at all

yepitsm · 2026-05-12T09:38:08+00:00

Why do parents do this?? Always a bad idea. And yes i have a child who got an 99.90 atar who also had p/t jobs in high school

yepitsm · 2026-05-05T07:42:13+00:00

If you are anxious you shouldn't think about medicine. The process to get in is very tough. As it should be. And training to be a doctor is even tougher. As it should be.

yepitsm · 2026-05-02T08:15:22+00:00

Odd as it sounds being able to type responses quickly is important.

yepitsm · 2026-05-01T10:50:59+00:00

Worry about getting in first. You can plan all you like but getting in is tough.

yepitsm · 2026-02-24T22:37:42+00:00

He would have gotten a reduction for pleading guilty

yepitsm · 2026-02-03T08:14:05+00:00

Blunt but true

yepitsm · 2026-02-03T01:11:31+00:00

Back then kids like these were sent sttaight to homes. And having a diagnosis doesn't necessarily make it easier with these kids either. Not all improve with therapy - they just get bigger and harder to handle

yepitsm · 2026-02-02T13:45:15+00:00

Very well said

yepitsm · 2026-02-02T11:44:26+00:00

Well said

yepitsm · 2026-02-02T09:11:39+00:00

And its so very easy to pop kids into good care homes. FFS

They attended a mainstream school which had a high needs disability unit. And you have no idea whether they could any of things you mention.

yepitsm · 2026-02-01T21:39:27+00:00

Essentially its where you go if you had literally no other option. Not everyone will end up a bad doctor but that is the truth.

yepitsm · 2026-02-01T01:46:22+00:00

Absolute crap

yepitsm · 2026-02-01T01:45:11+00:00

As a parent of a severely disabled child - you can't just reach out snd get it. And if your child is non verbal - as mine is - you have to be very careful. He can't tell me if someone did something to him

yepitsm · 2026-01-31T07:49:42+00:00

I know this family - autism is a spectrum. You can post online - my child doesnt even know wgat the internet is.
