Don't know about USyd & Griffith for rural admission but UQ is a certainty for you.
Very high chances for UNSW. For JMP I think it much depends on the PQA/interview.

Guaranteed provisional entry at UQ, Griffiths (if you get 99.85+), UMelb chancellor's program (99.90, full fee paying 99.00 - edited), and Flinders (99.85).

Interviews at UWA, UAdel, UNSW, Bond, and USyd (99.95).

JCU will depend on your written application.

No chance at JMP, WSU, Curtin, Monash, and UTAS because of your S2 score.

Isn't it 99.90 (not 99.95) for provisional CSP and 99 (not 99.90) for provisional FFP?

Hi! I am stressing a bit about interview offers... Given that I have an ATAR of 99.90 and UMAT of 93% (59/62/62), what are my chances of getting an interview? I have started a degree, but withdrew like a week after census date, so technically I am a non-school leaver (I graduated high school in QLD in 2016). I have applied to JCU, WSU, UNSW, and JMP (as well as UTas and Flinders- but no interviews here!)

I'd say extremely likely for UNSW if not certain. Congratulations . For WSU, your UMAT S1 and S2 total sum is a tad below the threshold. If you're from GWS, you should be pretty confident to receive an interview offer. JCU - really likely depending on the quality of your written application.

with a section 1 score of 55 (55/60/57) do I have any chance for JMP..getting a bit worried

From what I know the bare minimum most years is a 59 on S1, I've never seen any lower offered an interview... Sorry!
I may be incorrect about this though. Also, depends if you're rural - if you are, you very likely will get a JMP interview with that S1 score.

Only if you are a rural applicant.

Unfortunately, I’m from the Gold Coast, so I won’t qualify for GWS for UWS. But I just received an interview offer for JMP, so your reply to my message must’ve promoted the uni to email me! Thank you for answering

You got ATAR of 99.90 in 2016 and you are on the Gold Coast. Why didn't you study Griffith Med, or Flinders Med, or UMelb Chancellor's program (though need interview later)? Unbelievable that you "waste" a full year to try again

 

[Nujabes]

Someone got an interview with S1:58 (non-rural), so the cutoff is 58?? JMP

Looks like it

ETA: I'm actually not surprised, as there was a bit of a shift with scores this year. For example, 183 raw last year was 92nd%ile, but this year was 93rd%ile.

 

[skrtskrt101]

I know someone who got Adelaide Medicine and Dentistry interview with 178 raw (89 Umat). FYI!!!

Hi,
I have posted in here before but thought I would again. Bit anxious after today.
I took gap year after getting 97.00 and did the umat this year. I got only 61% but got a 50 in all three sections. I did not get an interview for Adelaide. Was wondering my chances with these three uni's: Monash, UQ and Flinders. I am from an RA3 region. Thanks!

Not sure about Flinders, but for Monash you might or might not have a chance (through applying for the Dean's Rural List - email came out two days ago). I know that for UQ rural entry, the UMAT cutoff is much lower (last yea it was 156:52 for overall:S1). However, your ATAR must be 99.00 minimum (though I don't know if it includes bonus points or whether your actual ATAR must be this.)

Yeah, cutoff for Adelaide med is 172 raw/84th%ile this year (a tiny bit over 172/84th, but by decimal places - I got 172/84th and no offer while others with 172/84th got offers). It's gone down a lot, especially since they're doubling the number of Med interview offers based solely on UMAT.

UQ is quite possible, since last year's UMAT cutoff for rural was 156 raw with a 52 in S1 as a tie breaker with no interview, unless you don't have bonus ranks to get to the 99 rank cut off. No clue about Flinders or Monash, sorry!
