Hello everyone. I’m new on here and have been reading threads for a while now hopefully I’m on the correct thread as this is the thread for HSFY 2021.
I’ve completed my bachelors in podiatry at AUT in 2018.
I want to apply for med however I’m lost as to what is required. I know I probably won’t get in via a graduate entrance as my GPA is only about 5.6. So I was wondering if someone could please give me some insight as to what I need to do and what’s required to get into perhaps HSFY or biomed at UoO or UoA for 2021 please. I really don’t know if I’m still eligible to apply as an undergrad, I’m confused.
I live in Auckland so UoA would be the best option. In my first semester of my Bachelors in podiatry I have done some papers such as HAP I and II (human anatomy and physiology) which I’m not sure if I would be able to Cross credit for any papers in the first year (like medsci 142)? would that mean I don’t need to do medsci 142 as I’ve done something equivalent to it or would I still need to?
Some insight would be really appreciated and also what I’ll need to do in my first year for wanting to pursue med, everyone’s talking about making Sure you have A+ in the 4 core papers however I’m worried at Just the thought of that!!!!!
Thank youuu!
Hey, speaking just from Otago, I would still apply if I were you, even if others tell you that you won't be eligible for HSFY.
I was admitted to HSFY last year after already doing tertiary study, as were many others that I met. I believe it may be a case by case basis, but I had no issues and am now in med. Good luck!
