Found a small sentence hidden in the middle of a looooong page which says that STAT is required for all nursing courses if no tertiary study has been undertaken in the last 5 years. That's me! I knew there was some reason I thought I needed the test, so am off to apply. Thanks for your help Jennifer, the Australian system of university application is so very different to what I am used to, it's just taking me a while to get my head around it.
