gamsat

Othilia, I'm going to be replying to your post about the UMAT :D

Well, I suppose I 'must' take it, but you know, you should be open with options. Here are my extremely broad goals for university, listed from what I want to what I'll be able to do if I don't get it.

  1. Medicine - Most likely Surgery (so typical, I know)
  2. Optometry
  3. Psychology
  4. Engineering
  5. Nanotechnology/something physics related
Unfortunately, I don't see myself doing anything theory-intensive such as another extension of high school English. I'm so sorry for lampooning the interests of many English enthusiasts out there, but it's not my thing :(

So I think I'm leaning toward the idea of 'yes, I will be training intensively for the UMAT despite the cost'. I told my parents, and they don't mind about the money, but it would be appropriate to try my hardest to ACHIEVE MY DREAMS! Really, that's what I want LOL And since it fits into the idea of medicine, why not?

Anyway, moving on. The GAMSAT, as I have gathered from half an hour's worth of reading online, is extremely intense. I think it's the actual idea of 'whole day exam' and 'english, maths, biology, chemistry and physics' part, that gets me. Yes, you'll be tested on English as well. I checked Wikipedia, and it appears to be quite legitimate HAHA. I think you only take the GAMSAT if you want a transfer into a medical course, but I am not sure, and hence don't flame me about my incorrect assumption. And from this, if that is wrong, please tell me LOL If that applies to someone that has already done the UMAT, I need to brace myself for the intense exam :(

So yeah. I actually don't have much to say now HAHA But I must share with you: I FINISHED TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS YEAH! Now I'll just finish my Physics notes and read an act or two of As You Like It before immersing myself in Paprika.
