G’day everyone,

How are you all?

I know many of you have been waiting to find out when applications to the University of Melbourne’s new Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) program would open for the 2011 intake.

Applications to the M.D. program at the University of Melbourne for the 2011 intake are now OPEN via OzTREKK.

You can apply now at:
http://oztrekk.com/programs/how/melbourne_medicine.php

For a program overview, please visit:
http://www.oztrekk.com/programs/medicine/PG/melbourne.php

Entry Requirements:

a. Academic record: grade point average (GPA) from a completed three-year (or more) university degree in any discipline. GPA will be calculated based on a weighted aggregate over the final three years of study. Your final year of study will be given a weighting of 3, your second to final year a weighting of 2 and your third to final year of study will be given a weighting on 1; and

b. Pre-requisite subjects: completion of the following subjects at second-year university level or above (one each) in anatomy, physiology and biochemistry; and

c. Test results in an aptitude test: MCAT or GAMSAT. MCAT test results from January, 2008 to May, 2010 (inclusive) will be accepted. Applicants sitting the MCAT test more than once within this date range, may choose which set of scores to include with their application; and

d. Structured multi mini interview (MMI): to be held in September for those short listed.

In early June 2010, OzTREKK will be hosting its annual Canadian licensing workshops across Canada, which are exclusive to those who apply to an Australian medical school via OzTREKK. These workshops provide you with the latest information regarding the accreditation and licensing process if you wish to return to Canada to practice, and provide you with some of your options.

If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to contact Alison Simser, OzTREKK Medical School Admissions Officer, at any time via e-mail: [email protected] or by calling 1 866 698 7355.

Wishing you all the best with your application to Melbourne!

Cheers,

Matt

G'day everyone,

There are a few more details which I can update you on regarding Melbourne's requirements for admission in to the new M.D. program:

1.MCAT requirements: No minimum has been set but it is likely to be only applicants who have achieved 8/8/M/8 will be considered.

2. Pre-requisite subject outlines: Those who apply should submit full subject syllabi including information on assessment to have the subjects assessed for equivalency. This is pertaining to the pre-requisite subjects required by Melbourne in the areas of anatomy, physiology and biochemistry.

3. Pre-requisite subject completion: You must have completed all three pre-requisite subjects required by Melbourne to have your application considered and assessed.

Hope this helps.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail me or Alison.

Cheers,

Matt
 
G'day everyone,

Hope this post find you all well.

There has been another update which just came down through the pipe. The MMI which the University of Melbourne was going to host in-person in Canada has now been changed.

The University of Melbourne, School of Medicine will be holding phone interviews in August for those that are short-listed. The phone interview will not be in the form of an MMI, just a regular three panel phone interview.

More details to follow once I receive the confirmation.

Again, hope you are all well and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me at any time.

Cheers,

Matt
