What are my chances?
Hi,
My case is very intricate and even the agents and consultants I've been to are pretty perplexed about what can be done with my situation. I'm 28 years old. I have an unaccredited honours diploma and a PG diploma in business management and Australia, as well, does not recognize those qualifications. I passed that course in 2010. Thus, I have a 7 year gap when it comes to education. I've been running my own business since 2014 and was working in the family business before that.
I've...

US MD graduate wanting to immigrate to Australia and do radiology
I am a US MD graduate. No Autralian citizenship. How long is radiology training in Australia? How much are you paid during training and after training?

Moving from European country to Australia
Hello everyone,
I'm aware that this topic has been hugely debated on this forum but I also find the information to be slightly confusing and thus I'd be really appreciative if someone could explain it to me clearly.
About me: I'm a medical student who will be graduating in the Spring of 2018. I'm Portuguese but my medical degree is from the Czech Republic (I'm studying in an English programme). I plan to go back to Portugal once I finish my studies and do my whole residency there.
I have...

IMG with citizenship moving back to Australia?
I am an Australian citizen who moved to Hong Kong at a young age and completed medical school there. Now I am doing my higher physician training (having completed my MRCP) and would like to relocate back to Australia to practice. Would anyone have advice on how best to do that?
Should I:
Complete my training in HK then go through the specialist pathway?
Move to Australia and join as a physician trainee?
I understand that even as a citizen if I didn't graduate from an Australian medical...

Canadians in Australian schools
Hey guys, I haven't seen a central post for this, and most of the info is scattered in several posts/outdated. I thought I'd start one off here and see where things go. If you're Canadian, and applying to any school in Australia, and have Canadian-related concerns please feel free to post here. Also, those Canadians who are already in these programs, your advice will be greatly appreciated. Relevant topics include matching back to Canada as IMG (Or CSA I guess is also a term used), or US,...

Panel Physician for Visa
Anyone else applying for the Australian student visa and were told to get an exam from a panel physician?
If you did it already, how much did the panel physician visit cost for you? I know it'll be different based on location, but I want to compare so I don't get scammed. Pretty sure my insurance won't cover any of it. I'm in the USA by the way (CA to be exact). (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Australian Specialist Reserves... anyone know anything?
Hello,
I'm a junior doctor (Australian) with an interest in joining the Australian Specialist Reserves (Air Force).
I'm trying to source some information re: entry pathways for anaesthesia registrars. Currently, I am of the understanding that one must be a consultant (attending) prior to getting an interview, and you need to know people.
Is there anyone on this forum who can field some questions regarding entry pathways and other general queries? I am aware most/all of you are USA...

What are my chances? (4.0 GPA scale to 7.0 scale)
My school reports marks on my transcripts in percentages. When I go to convert these percentages on a 4.0 GPA scale, it's around ~2.77 (barely meets the cutoff of 2.7). Whereas if I take those percentages and convert them on a 7.0 GPA Scale (as per GEMSAS), then my GPA is fairly high ~6.3/7 (well over the cutoff of 5/7).
My MCAT is a 500.
I have decent ECs (specialist shadowing, student government, research, etc...)
I'm just wondering, are schools in Australia...
