I attended the Gradmed intensive course for Bio, Chem & Physics and have all their detailed notes. Also have a book of Gradmed mock exams and some extremely useful Gradmed Verbal Reasoning Mock questions...they are really hard!
I have the Des O'neil science notes and Mock exams and essay course with detailed critique of essays, plus my own essay preparation notes..I got 79 in the essay section.
I have got MCAT verbal reasoning practice questions. I found this very useful and used to do a passage a night. I think it was extremely useful in terms of timing and getting the knack of finibd the right answer...practice makes perfect and it really works...
I have got the Kaplan MCAT science MCAT practice questions and some other MCAT science practice questions which I used towards the end of my revison to do timed practice and I feel this really helped me as I improved my Gamsat score by 9 marks from the previous year just by getting my brain to twist in the right ways...The science section is really about understanding what the question is asking and timing..
Anyway, PM me is you are interested . I am based in london so we can make arrangements for you to get this lovely box of goodies. I will feel abit sad to say goodbye to it as its been a big part of my life for 2 years, but I;m off to med school now, so bye-bye!!
Do you still have any of the Gamsat prep stuff? I've enrolled with Gradmed so I don't need any of their info but the other stuff sounds useful. Congrats on getting in! Are you on a GEP course? When did you start revising for the Gamsat? Seems no amount of prep is ever going to be enough. I'm based in London too, going to apply to St Georges, Queen Mary & Kings.
I was asked 'why not nursing' too - I had anticipated that question though and said something like I wanted to be more involved in diagnosis. I'm not sure I sounded v convincing though. I currently...
Interesting that you've said that, I was an HCA and am now a trainee biomedical scientist and they seemed really fixated on why I didnt want to be "just a nurse" or "just a BMS", and I felt like I...
Rejection also. I knew it was coming but until they send the letter theres that tiny bit of hope that everyone else was somehow worse than you! Let us know if you are successful at getting feedback,...
Sorry to hear that Profanius, chronomatic and ridders.
I know how disappointing it is to receive that email, especially after you think the interview went ok :(
Best of luck for the rest of your...
