Bro, it's great that you are helping prospective students, but don't you think this is the wrong place to be posting all these? Perhaps you can just attach a small link without using pages. Moreover, those who are really serious will find a way to get this information. This space is mainly for visa stuff, if I'm not mistaken.

Queenmama03:
Hello all,
I've just received an admission offer and I'm almost ready to apply for my visa. However, I noticed that some people do their medicals on same day they do their Biometrics. Please can someone tell me how this works? So that I don't make the journey twice. Thank you.

Doing Medicals and Biometrics same day can only happen if your booking dates for both of them falls in the same day.
