The most popular courses overall comprised of Paramedic Science, Biomedical Science, Optometry, Health Sciences, Physiotherapy, Medicine, Psychological Sciences, Engineering, and Business.

However, Dentistry also emerged as a top contender this year.

The state’s 11 major universities also crunched the numbers and revealed their most popular courses based on QTAC preferences.

QTAC Head of Customer Experience Chris Jack said those who did not receive an offer on or before Thursday should not panic, as offer rounds continue throughout January and February.

“Applicants need to remember they are at the wheel here, and that there is always a way forward, whether you qualified for an ATAR or not,” he said.

“Some people might not get their first preference while others might find they are undecided and wish to reconsider their options. Whatever the outcome of your QTAC Application, now and in the future, there are many alternative pathways or approaches to tertiary study.”
