你好，請問去年3A*1A meet 唔到HKU medicine CO 後來轉戰澳洲medicine 嗰位同學，你知唔知道佢係唔係澳洲citizen定以international student 身份申請?小女有HKU 今年CO, 見到佢依家struggle 緊，好大機會achieve 唔到4A*，我哋係Australian citizen, 如果申請澳洲嘅醫學院， 我聽聞domestic student 都要4A*先收，反而international students 低啲成績都會有機收, 但實際情況真係唔嘹解。

Yes, you are absolutely right. It is much harder to get admitted if you are citizens. Besides higher requirements on academic performance, the interview focuses on a lot of, as reasonably expected, local topical issues which are hard for candidates whom have been residing overseas to handle. The issue for us is we have no choice. If one has Australian citizenship, one will be placed in the domestic student  queue and cannot go for the international process even if we are willing to pay the international fees.

Yes, after further research, we understand some universities have full fee paying domestic students intake in recent years, they are called non-CSP (Commonwealth Support Places). We may need to look at that but probably after results announcement given there are still sufficient time for Jan 2025 entry.

On the subject of whether you can apply with 3 ALs, 如果以international students status 我唔清楚因為冇喺呢方面睇過， 但如係citizen/PR,  UNSW med 收24 分，conversion table 喺A* = 6, A = 5, B = 4…, 所以一定要讀4科同攞4A*, 我見你喺另一個post 問Monash, 相信要求亦差不多因為Monash 係Victoria undergrad top med school, Melbourne U 主收post grad admissions, 所以讀三科應該唔得，相信international students requirement 有機會寬鬆啲，最好直接向心儀大學問清楚。

Last year, at my daughter’s school, a girl who is a citizen, achieved 4A* but still didn’t get in UNSW. On the other hand, a friend’s son got into Monash as an international student three years ago with IB 42.
