[+Po1ntDeXt3r+]

Frigid: yes I know those ppl.. lolz..

kido_1: keep dreaming there is almost no difference in a perfect UAI and a UMAT once ure in med school

un: based on ure post-graduate work years... and experience..

truth #1: all unis' marketin teams want u to think that prestige plays a part...

it means jack all cos if u dun help ure work mates.. ure just sabotaging ureself.. Colleges want competent and high achieving professionals. ... not egotistical douches..

yeh, i know my family friend got 96 and got into med at UNSW and den thought he wz gonna be like the dumbest bumb in class-lol. afta about a week no one relly even askd about UAI and all that..

 

[dongypro]

Nobody cares about UAI, it's about Uni; everyone is on a clean slate. All the 100 and 99.95 people are now your class-mates in first year. They're unproven in Uni... I don't think UAI matters all that much now.

UAI doesnt matter at all as long as you can follow the work at uni

even if u got 99 uai u mite not try as hard as someone who got 95.

theres really not much difference in 95 and 99's if u think about it.. its just like 2 or 3 topic difference that you got band 6 for.. and which is probably going to be english.. and as everyone knows english is a bullshit subject

 

[kido_1]

i know i just h8 english, its so random, biased and wierd.
so wat counts once u get 2 uni

 

[phrred]

USyd hogs all the good hospitals as well. Damn lamers.

USYD= RPA
UNSW= POW

theyre both massive hospitals

 

[KFunk]

PoW schmelllllllls. It's crappy for teaching, actually.

I've found it to be pretty good so far. Your clinical teaching experience probably has a lot more to do with your clinical tutor than the hospital (I should mention that I've had a several good ones at POW). POW is relatively swish really, it has wards/sub-hospitals relevant to every module, e.g. women's hospital for BGD, children's hospital for paeds, oncology... and so forth.

 

[+Po1ntDeXt3r+]

=O... i love PoW.. its so fancy... and its nicely laid out

yeah.. ppl will have their bias.. just dun get the hospitals with the tough doctors i guess.. but the PoW guys are not that tough so it should be ok

 

[un 1]

all the nsw hosptials are obviously hogged by those from USYD and UNSW, wat about UWS and its new regime..

Knows a shitload(not me). Id probably go for one that my friends are going to, in other words I really dont know what to say, bcz i am not such an expert too in this, just wait for some pro o the b.o.s to answa dat.

Any info I could provide for the interview would not only be unethical, but it might also be outdated.

unethical my ass. they are all over the internet.

They usually ask questions about your childhood etc, why you want to do med, waht ur other prefs are, ill ask my mates and post back,.

 

[sladehk]

come to UWS!!!

 

[+Po1ntDeXt3r+]

It gives these people an undeserved edge. It also makes the UNSW system less effective.

ethical is v. subjective.. u can basically justify anything..
I could say that in your personal framework.. if i told u wat would give u an edge to UNSW last yr.. u would have snapped it up

now.... frankly wat is ure defined as an end-point for ure "effective" for an interview.. thats a question so heavily debated that it too.. is subjective...

just a lesson in ethics and research technique.. dun try and take the moral high ground unless u can defend it well

 

[+Po1ntDeXt3r+]

not really cos the end point for all moral arguments is also not defined and is subjective..

so ud never be able to defend ure position adequately.. even i wouldnt try.. fact of the matter is that high moral ground isnt easy...

hahah yeah .. but u didnt ask nicely .... or u did.. and noone was arsed to tell u.. i cant recall .. life is tough that way.. =P

 

[piccolo]

i havent seen anyone mention the university of newcastle which is really surprising to me. the course there is world renound and is so...i dunno...effective? i guess, that usyd is now trying to imitate it. so i would defo say newcastle is my top preference

 

[meomeo]

D: I wanted to be a doctor when I was little.
But then I realised I was a fuck up, D: so I'd only kill people.

"Newcastle and Melb uses the same system (2 step PBL teaching)"

huh? i thought uncle and umelb were completely diff?

 

[+Po1ntDeXt3r+]

nope.. its a true.. they use the 2 step PBL system.. the content is different.. but the system is the same..

basically its how the PBL is set out.. its v. similar.. compared to adelaide and usyd..
