摘要：
One of the selection criteria for the three Australian medical schools with graduate-entry programs is performance in a common entry test, the Graduate Australian Medical School Admissions Test (GAMSAT). We found that scores for GAMSAT in 1996 (its second year) varied significantly with candidate sex, age, highest degree level and main subject in first degree. Mean scores were highest for men, younger candidates, honours graduates and those with a physical sciences background. However, arts and social sciences graduates (9.8% of applicants) comprised 11.4% of the 200 top-scoring candidates.
