Hey everyone,
So, I'm a Canadian student and I've gotten an offer from both. I'm not sure which one to choose. I feel like there's pros and cons to both.
UQ
pros:
-tuition (81 K)+ cost of living in Brisbane is cheaper
-high number of overseas/international placements
-more international students (will be nice to have that shared experience)
-they have an awesome med student society
cons:
-large class sizes (490)
-the admission process is easier compared to Umel
-less hands on experience
UMel
Pros:
-a lot more clinical experience
-smaller class size comparatively (340)
-ranked 16th on QS rankings
Cons:
-scared of z-scores used by Victoria state
- Z-scores used by the Victoria State fosters a competitive environment
-EXPENSIVE tuition (92K) + Cost of living
-less international placements but more can be arranged
For people going to any of these universities, what are your thoughts? Why did you choose one university over the other? Any advice because I'm very confused right now?
