there you are.....still worthwhile applying......

although i must say, it's a bit strange, that they accorded recognition in 2008, when the 1st intake is only in their 2nd year....must be something to do with imu's arrangement with them......

smc does not recognise them, nor jcu......

i believe the relative have decided to hedge their bets, and pay up, knowing full well they will loose some money should they reject, either to take another offer, or to take another course...I make sure they understand the implication of paying....

have you?.....

I'm inclined to think that NSW will be the worst state to graduate from in 5 years' time, simply due to the sheer number of graduates coming through the system. The government might expand the system over the next few years, but then again they may also increase the number of medical seats or even start a new medical school (great political mileage considering there will be at least 2 more elections called in the next 5 years - what happens next is a little less important to them). Charles Sturt is lobbying hard for a new medical school.

The smaller states like TAS, WA, SA and even ACT have essentially peaked in terms of graduate numbers. I would definitely keep New Zealand and Singapore as back up as well.
