Iirc the USYD application is just done through UAC.
You do need a separate application process for JMP and UNSW.

Sounds great, thank you.

Sounds great, thank you.

There are two degrees - bachelor of arts or bachelor of science AND MD. So make sure you put the one you want as first preference.

Hi vrish, the USyd DDMP stands for the Double Degree Medicine Program, which is open only to school leavers. You first do a three-year Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science, then progress into the four-year Doctor of Medicine. The USyd DDMP does not use the UCAT - the only admissions criteria are:

1. An ATAR of 99.95 (the threshold can be slightly lower if you are approved under a disadvantage scheme e.g. EAS or E12);
2. Satisfactory performance at the invitation-only assessment day (comprising two components — written questions, and a group interview).

Hey garmonbozia, sorry for digging this up lol, but do you know how approximately much the ATAR threshold is lowered by if I have EAS? And this will be my unadjusted ATAR, correct?

99.50 is the lowest they'll consider, but it depends on the number of people applying under the E12 scheme - they only invite a certain number of people to interview through this scheme. If there's an excess of 99.50+'s applying, the threshold may well rise.

Is it necessary to apply for the E12 scheme on top of just the EAS for USyd? And also, would it be more beneficial in any way?

EAS adjustments don't apply to the double degree program, only E12, so you should apply for E12 if you are eligible.

Hi guys, is there a difference between the entry requirements and required ATAR for the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science pathway for medicine?

Hi guys, is there a difference between the entry requirements and required ATAR for the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science pathway for medicine?

The no of seats allocated for both is the 30 combined. The entrance criteria remains the same a 99.95 [Unless your E12] and a panel interview with a written assessment

Yes if you did school in a rural location in grade 11 and 12 you would be an E12 applicant. This would reduce the ATAR required to 99.50

Yes, minimum requirement is 4 A*.

However, GCE A-Levels are Not Applicable at the site for 2022 domestic entry.
Have you heard any students are accepted with A-Level at last year?
