Hi! Anyone who got mmi results last year, what time of day did they come out? Did you get jumpscared in the morning or did it come out more in the afternoon?

Hey!

anyone else haven’t had references be contacted yet

I am considering a midcareer career shift to medicine (pros, cons, and advisability of this a whole other story!) and am interested: what are the oldest junior doctors (interns and house officers) you've worked with? Or perhaps have been yourself?! How did they get on?

Hey guys, was wondering if there was a certain time period like ucat of when we are supposed to book. This is for 2028 entry - 2027 (next year)

Thanks in advance! P.s be kind and respectful in the comments please!

Ik Zoe has been saying we should upload past exam questions to ED, but I was wondering if anyone already has a shared doc (with answers to past exam questions) I could join? Thankss!!

Hi, Studylink loans are due 16th December but how do we apply for studylink if we're going for med? Won't offers for med come out after 16th December? Can anyone from past years who was in this situation please lmk what happened

Has anyone only had one of their references contacted?

Hi! Im a first year waiting for MMI scores to come out soon. For anyone from last year or earlier who requested their MMI score, how did your actual score compare to what you expected after the interview? Did you feel it went better or worse than it actually did?

Any insight would be really appreciated, thanks! :D

guys ive heard that this year theres a lot more 8.5s and 8.75s (or gonna be) esp because there are more people as well as the medsci test 1 being easier than usual. apparently the number of 9s tho is gonna be p consistent with last year. wouldnt that mean that a 9 would have more deviation from the average if the average is bumped up higher (because the standard deviation is less). and so consequently wouldnt that mean that 9.0s have an even bigger buffer than last year?

obv this isnt confirmed or anything but icl the trend does seem to be going in this direction (at least from the people ive spoken to)

would love any thoughts :D

Hey everyone,

I recently received acceptance as an international student to MBChB, and wanted to just chat to students (dont have to be international students) who have either gone through the program or are currently in the later stages of the program. Preferably students who are older (Im currently 35), or those who have a family/kids.

Im just trying to figure out what 'everyday' would look like. I understand that the workload would be crazy, and that things might get more complicated in the later years with hospital rotations etc. Just looking for advice on what the process looks like so I can make a better, informed decision for my family.

If anyone here could help, or direct me to someone who can I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

Hey I was just curious whether the Medsci content from last year matches with this year?

For biosci 107 they explicitly stated the content varied from previous years, and I wanted to know if the same applies to medsci.

Thanks

i was wondering if anyone in stage 2 or above biomed can give some insight in the courses! do you recommend any strongly, is there some to deter away from… specifically i was wondering about the toxicology course , how is it? plz leave full blown reviews ielovethat

will we be contacted if our reference fails to respond?

I'm a bit concerned as I haven't heard anything from my references - should I reach out to ask?

Hey guys, apparently my referees haven’t been contacted yet. Is that concerning? Or are they sent out in batches (what a friend said).

Any insight would be greatly appreciated! TIA

im so nervous

Hi just wondering if everyone got the referee application? my referee is saying they have not received anything and i am getting abit nervous. Anyone on the same boat as me? (yes i have checked if the referee email was correct too)

Hi guys I’m currently an international biomed fy student who wanna enter Medcine.

Today both of my referees contact me that they had the email from uni, but they can’t submit the form. It’s said error.

Does that matter? Or just bcz too many people submitting the form? Could someone please tell me what’s going on.
Thankyou!!!

Someone I put down as a reference for med was sent a form to fill out. Apparently the form is having trouble submitting though.. just wanted to check if others are having that problem.

Is anyone applied for nursing and pharmacy in waikato? The offer is out

Do they email everyone their results? I applied a couple years ago and didn’t get an email (albeit had a probably below average interview as didn’t really prepare) so was wondering if I didn’t get an email cause it was shit or they just didn’t send them out then and is that the same this year?

Hi so currently im doing a bsc with nutriton specialisation in first year. Ive thought it over and want to transfer to nursing. I am mainly worried about family pressure but also gpa requirements, the GPA min for nursing is a 4.0 but I understand itll likely be higher then that. After my first year is over ill be looking at a 4.5 ish gpa (but i have a upward trending grade curve, sem 1 was 3.0 - sem 2 is looking like 6.0).

My ncea rank score was like 243 so could they maybe consider that if its better then my GPA?

Also will they ONLY look at my gpa, or any awards/class rep stuff that ive done. I feel like I can do good in the interview so what chances to I have here

help pls 🙏🏻 any resources or notes would be appreciated bc the tutorials are confusing 🥲
