Around 300 applicants will be invited to attend an interview for the BDS course at Adelaide.
You must have completed two science subjects at SACE stage 2, from Chemistry, Mathematical Methods, Specialist Mathematics, Physics; and one chosen from Biology, Geology, Chemistry, Physics. Alternatively, at IB you may offer two Science subjects (one from Chemistry, Mathematics: Applications and Interpretations or Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches or Physics AND one of Biology, Chemistry or Physics.
You may also offer equivalent university courses.
You must sit the UCAT, which will determine your ranking for interview. As the university states, ‘For all applicants, with the exception of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Pathway, interview eligibility is based on your performance in the UCAT ANZ, with each of sections 1-4 having equal weight. Section 5 of the UCAT ANZ (the Situational Judgment Test) component of the test will only be used to determine eligibility of candidates in the lower rank with equal total score across the other 4 sections.’ Note that ONLY the UCAT will affect your interview eligibility, not your previous academic record at school.
