Hey Ava, thank you for this video, it was really helpful! I have a question: do you know if any pre-med students can get involved in shadowing/volunteering in hospitals?

Hey there! Pre-meds can definitely get involved as volunteers in hospitals 😊 I’m sure hospitals would also be open to having students shadow but you’d probably have to email consultants for those opportunities and do it during holidays when medical students are not on placements.

Hi there, you should be able to apply to postgraduate medicine using your grades from your nursing degree! But I would double-check with the universities you are applying to in order to confirm what degrees they accept.

Can a masters degree be counted for in the application process for post grad medicine? or is it strictly undergraduate degrees?

Hey Ava, thank you for the video. I am doing bachelors of liberal arts and science as my bachelors. Do you think I should transfer my course to let’s say bachelors of science (health) or bachelors of science( medical science)? Or should I just continue with this and complete this as my premed to apply for medical school?

Hi there, As I mentioned in the video, your GPA will be what matters at the end of the day in regard to applications; no specific course holds more advantage over others anymore. A bachelor's in liberal arts and science sounds interesting and if you are currently enjoying it and doing well, I wouldn't necessarily change course. However, if you're struggling to attain decent grades perhaps due to not enjoying the course very much and you are keen on pursuing medicine, transferring might be a good idea to develop a stronger science foundation. Hope this helps and good luck :)

Hi Ava... Thank you so much for this video. I want ask, i am 4th year student in the University of Ghana, Ghana studying Bachelor of Science (Biological sciences), will i be eligible to apply into medical school at the University of Melbourne?...If so, is there any available scholarship for international students in medical school?

Hi there, you are most welcome 😊 I believe you will be eligible so long as you also sit the MCAT or GAMSAT :) To confirm I’d email the university. Melbourne uni does offer scholarships (though not many) but for details I recommend googling this for international students specifically.

Hi Kunal, Thank you for your comment! Now to answer your question, I don't know how your scores translate as a GPA score but if your GPA is below 5.0, it would be difficult to be a competitive applicant as medical schools generally have a GPA minimum requirement of 5.0 or higher. If your GPA is under 5.0, you have the option of studying a different degree to reset your GPA (I know this sounds like an arduous path, but if you really want to pursue medicine, it is a good option). If however, your GPA is above 5.0, universities that don't look at your GPA (e.g University of Sydney) would be a great school to apply to as with a high GAMSAT score, you can be a competitive applicant. Hope this helps!

Hi there, I am interested in applying to the University of Melbourne for medicine, even though my background is not in the medical field. I have completed a degree in Social Work from UWA and a degree in Project Management from ECU. The application process seems overwhelming with a lot of information to navigate. I would appreciate some guidance on the best pathway for me to pursue.

Hello, First of all, you’ll need to make sure you completed your most recent degree within the last 10 years - if not, it might be worthwhile completing another degree like a bachelor’s of science or biomedicine degree if you are really set on medicine. GPA does play a part in the application process so ensuring your GPA is relatively high would he beneficial. You’ll also need to sit the GAMSAT (or the MCAT if you’re an international applicant). I would suggest you watch one of my earlier videos on ‘how to get into medical school’ or look at the GEMSAS application document for more detailed information. Hope this helps :)
