Mastering GAMSAT

The MedPrep Professional GAMSAT Preparation Course has been designed to provide all the support necessary for you to relearn and expand, rather than simply review, each skill assessed by the GAMSAT. Mastering the GAMSAT is a three-part process.

You must acquire superior reading and writing skills. You will be asked to read abstract, sophisticated passages under high time pressure in the humanities/social sciences and biological/physical sciences reasoning sections, and to write well analysed, yet carefully restricted, essay responses in the written communication section.

MedPrep trains you to read and write the GAMSAT way.

You must develop the ability to apply your knowledge of the basic sciences in an unfamiliar, concept-oriented assessment environment. Unlike most university exams, GAMSAT questions are not fact-recall oriented, but instead are usually asked in the context of a complicated scientific system, such as an experiment or research study. You must be able to work with that system as a whole when answering questions and understanding the larger implications of the theory presented in each passage.

MedPrep trains you to think the GAMSAT way.

You must hone your test-taking and time-management skills. The GAMSAT, perhaps more than any other admissions exam, is as much a test of your science and communication aptitudes as it is a measure of your ability to play the "test-taking-game". Knowing the rules of this game - how to select choices under conditions of uncertainty, how to estimate numerical solutions quickly without engaging in laborious calculations, how to optimise your score by being efficient but not necessarily comprehensive in selecting which questions to answer, etc. - can make the difference between an average and an excellent score.
