Ever had a question about medicine/dentistry, but felt like it was too small to warrant creating an entire thread for it?

I think they have extra allocated spots because why else would they give you an option to have it on your preference list...As I was trying to sort my SATAC preferences, I stumbled upon this:
Bachelor of Clinical Sciences (double degree with Flinders University's Doctor of Medicine (MD) in the Northern Territory).
For this course, do the spots come under Flinders' total spots or do they have extra allocated for Charles Darwin University? Will I have to add this to my pref as well or just having Flinders is enough?

similiar to utas where they give preference to people living in tasmania.They have extra allocated spots for Charles Darwin University, you will need to add this to your preference as well.
Note that they preference Indigenous and Northern Territory students though, and they have very few places.
"Preference is given to students who are NT residents and Indigenous Territorians. Other Australians may apply and will be considered if there are insufficient numbers of eligible NT and/or Indigenous applicants." - Flinders University
i don't know if this is a big thing or not, about the uws applications do they give preference to people who live in gws?

but isn't it harder to get into dent cos there are less spots available?Summary of a few quick questions recently asked on Hatbox.
Q: Is it easier to get into Dent than Med?
A: Generally yes. Rule of thumb is 99.0 + 90%ile for Med, 98.0 + 85%ile for Dent
MSOer cc101 was 98.5 + 76%ile, got a late round offer from CSU Dent.
Q: What was the 2016 UMAT cut-off for UQ Dent?
A: 173 overall score (vs 182 for UQ Med)
Q: How come Griffith Dent is only 3 years?
A: It's 3 years plus a 2-year Grad Dip in Dentistry to qualify for dentist's registration.
The 2-yr Grad Dip is full-fee even for Aus/NZ students, approx $60k * 2yrs = $120k
There are also less people applying compared to medbut isn't it harder to get into dent cos there are less spots available?
@Trin , do you have any UMAT tips?
How important is the predicted ATAR for JCU application and is it possible that they would not consider your application if the predicted ATAR is too low? Does JCU invite medicine hopefuls for interview based on their predicted ATAR?

Yes.If i take a gap year and/or redo some year 12 subjects, am I still considered a school leaver? i.e. Will I still be considered by all universities? (for example if I just redo my UMAT and use the same ATAR, can i still apply to UQ?)
This would be if you did recent schooling or other education overseas.Does anyone have experience applying to UTAS?
I'm filling the application in right now and there is a section where supporting documentation is needed. Year 11 qualification is included and there's the option to upload supporting documentation for it.
However underneath, it writes:
"Please note: You do not need to attach transcripts or certificates of completion for Australian secondary (Year 12) or Australian tertiary (University) studies as the University of Tasmania will obtain these on your behalf."
Does this still mean supporting documents certifying I've completed Year 11 is needed? (What kind of document would this be even?) I'd assume that would be automatically be covered given they can obtain my certificate of completion for Year 12 at the end of this year... since I can't have completed Year 12 without Year 11 right?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, greatly appreciate it if anyone can help, thanks!
