Minimum academic time frame enquiry for medicine graduate category

r singh made this Official Information request to University of Otago

The request was partially successful.

From: r singh

Dear University of Otago,

Please clarify the meaning of completing a degree in the 'minimum academic time' for the graduate pathway into medicine. Please refer to the following example:

Year 1: A student completes semester 1 of a BASci and does not pursue it any further. They completed no study in semester 2.

Year 2: The student begins health science first-year programme and is pursuing a Bachelor of Biomedical Science with no past papers from the BASci transferring over.

Year 3-4: The student completes all degree requirements for the Bachelor of Biomedical Science from papers taken in years 2-4.

Will the student have completed the Bachelor of Biomedical Science degree in the ‘minimum academic timeframe’, and will the BASci study be included in the timeframe if no papers from that programme are transferred to the BBiomedSci?

Yours faithfully,

R.S.
