Hi all,

My brother recently got offered a place on a GEM course after sitting the GAMSAT in September 2011. It seems like such a long and arduous process, as I helped him along the way, but worthwhile in the end as he got a place and is well on his way to becoming a doctor.

I’ve kept all his revision notes, which include lots of questions and am looking to set up some revision sessions in the Midlands area for those sitting the exam this September. I haven’t sat the exam myself but helped my brother through a lot of the practice questions. I have a PhD in Geo-mechanics, which probably helped, but reckon that a logical mind with a good science foundation (not necessarily a science degree) can get you through it. I’m a University Researcher by trade and reckon that most emphasis must be put on tackling questions and lots of them.

Anyhow, in summary, revision sessions in Birmingham City Centre every weekend in July / August. If you’re interested please PM me and we can start getting you over the first hurdle of getting into Medical School. Ideally I’d like to take on no more than a handful of people, as that way I can ensure that all who do attend secure Medical School interviews.
