( many students take this 3 yr degree hoping to use it as a good stepping stone into Medical degree . Only a small percentage will gain admission into medical degree via this avenue. Besides Medicine, grads with a Medical Science degree often find employment working in Pathology labs at starting salaries of $30-35K. This comparatively low starting salary is a consequence of supply exceeding demand within the Australian economy. It is wise to keep this in mind when choosing any degree to study. However, if you are a international student, the employment situation may be different if you are seeking employment in your home country.
