Bond Bond Medicine: General Discussion

Hi, would a 93 atar with a 6.25 gpa be competitive for a psychometric test invite? (First year uni student)
If not, what gpa would make it competitive?
 
My impression is that bond uses a 50/50 ATAR GPA if you have 1 EFTSL of uni.

If you have a 93 ATAR, you will need a 99 GPA-rank (or a 6.0 over 1 year) reach the 96 benchmark.

I’m not sure if this is the calculation method bond uses but it would make sense

I’m also under the impression it’s 50:50 at this point.
 
Hi , I'm unable to add Bond University Medicine ( QTAC code = 020712) but system says course not found .

this is for "2022 Medicine Entry" , please let me know if anyone else facing similar issue.
 
Hey there! I think from previous years bond medicine applications open later as in u can only put it as a Qtac preference in the middle of January 2022. but give them a call to double check if u like! good luck!

The answer has already been supplied above. As is the case every year, Bond med applications don’t open until Jan.

Thank you for letting me know :)

I'm not sure if this has been answered previously, but does Bond accept equity points for medicine? For instance, if a person gets a 99.2 raw ATAR and a 99.95 ATAR with equity points - do we know which ATAR will be considered for successful admission?

Bond doesn't care about your ATAR as long as it is above a certain threshold - 97 or thereabouts. Once they give you a psychometric test offer on the basis of your ATAR, your ATAR is discarded and all they look at going forward is the results of your psychometric test. A 98 or a 99.95 ATAR makes no difference.

That said, I just realised the irony of suggesting a private uni accepting equity points - I don't think the average Bond applicant even qualifies for equity points in the first place (unless I'm much mistaken).
