Do I need 4 A-levels to apply to medicine in the Republic of Ireland?

Thinking of everyone sitting this year’s HPAT. I hope it goes (or has gone) well. Keep calm, keep working through the questions. Your aggregate score matters, but don’t get worked up about or spend more time on any one question than it deserves based on the time allocation/marks. Good luck.

I sat the HPAT yesterday. Hoping it went well but section three was quite difficult. 😞

At least section 3 (non-verbal reasoning) is only worth 20%. Strong scores on the other two sections can compensate. Focus on something else now until the results come out. ;-)

Singapore A levels have the highest grade as A.. there is no A* so how is the CAO calculated for Irish medical schools?

There’s a different process. Have a look at the Irish Universities & Medical Schools Consortium (IUMC), which explicitly mentions Singapore. https://iumc.com.sg/faq-2/
