Griffith Griffith Medicine: Medical Science/MD Provisional Entry Q&A

Bruce1973 said:
Posting on behalf of my son who has an ATAR 99.75. He has received neither USC nor Griffith Nathan. May I know why is it so ?

I'm thinking USC ranks candidates based on the ATAR aggregate. So someone else receiving 99.75 might have had a slightly higher aggregate than your son, and thus would be selected preferentially.

Hi Bosin31
May I know what sort of ATAR aggregate? He has done Specialist Math/Method/Physic/Bio/Chemistry.

It might be different depending on your state, but in Victoria, ATAR aggregate is the sum of your subject study scores (after scaling). It should appear on the 'View your 2022 ATAR' screen.
 
I checked the QCAA website, Subject marks below
Specialist Math 98
Math Method 97
Physic 97
Bio 97
Chemistry 97.

Can't see any scaling.

Hmm that's weird so some people got in with 99.75 whilst some didnt, you reckon it depends on course preference?

Hi, I got 99.75 and didn’t get an offer. Are you saying some people got in with 98.75? Should I still apply for the next round ? Very frustrated 😔

Did anyone get a Griffith or Sunshine coast offer? QTAC offers were supposed to be at 8:30 AM.

Any update on the cut off ?

The lowest non-rural offer we’ve had for GC or Nathan reported here at MSO (very small sample size) is 99.85.

For USC non-rural, the lowest we’ve had reported is 99.80. And for rural, 99.75 (though possibly goes lower).

ETA: not sure where you heard 98.75.

I have been told the provisional entry requirements for entry into griffith's MD program upon the completion of the medical science degree at UniSC are subject to change, would you know if this is the case?

Not sure but in last year's entry data they had second round offers


"10th February
99.90, Gold Coast, accepting, NZ student"

they definitely don’t. That student is from NZ so they didn’t get their atar until after the first offer round (in which the cut off was 99.85)
