GAMSAT Courses - Live in London and Live Online

Preparing students for the GAMSAT is unique in both the level of knowledge required and the extensive reasoning skills that must be developed in a highly time pressured environment. Since 2002 GradMed has provided extensive preparation at Imperial College, London, and during this time over 7000 students have completed our live courses.

We start before courses begin with an in depth consultation to determine strengths and weaknesses and to produce a full study plan. This is followed by extensive pre course reading and advice and the analysis of a full diagnostic exam.

Courses run for three months from January to March and from June to September, teaching both the required level of knowledge and the reasoning skills which the exam demands. The courses are intense and designed to emulate the style and demands of teaching you will encounter on a graduate programme at medical school. Working with like-minded individuals in a focused environment means rapid acquirement of knowledge and a true appreciation of the varied skills needed both at this level and at medical school itself.

In addition to our extensive course materials and bank of over 8000 simulated questions and seventeen full mock examinations you will also have access to the most sophisticated online learning portal available for GAMSAT (see below for more details).

Full Preparation Courses Weekends from Saturday June 14th to Sunday September 7th 2025

Running for three months we teach all of the core material and develop the extensive reasoning skills the exam requires. Students are provided with extensive pre-course reading and guidance, and have full access to the Course Director and Head Tutors at all times after enrollment. The aim is to provide a full holistic preparation where help is always available and questions never go unanswered.

Although GAMSAT is not a knowledge test ACER are clear that a core understanding of the principles of the sciences is a prerequisite to success in the examination. As they state, ‘The level of subject knowledge required for the Reasoning in Biological and Physical Sciences section of the test generally corresponds to the first year of university studies in biology and chemistry, and A-level/Leaving Certificate/Year 12 in physics.’

On our full preparation course, we focus on teaching the core knowledge and principles required across all of the sciences, including all of the skills content listed below on our Intensive skills programme. We have built our syllabus and topic areas based on direct experience of the examination over the past 23 years. The emphasis is understanding core concepts and at the same time applying this to past questions and understanding the skills and intellectual traits they are examining. Often the topic areas used on GAMSAT are obscure and almost impossible to rationalise by studying alone and we aim to show you not just the style but the type of source material the examination makes use of.

Written Communication - Saturday June 14th to Sunday August 17th 2025

Many people lose sight of the fact that 50% of your GAMSAT score comes from your language abilities in the form of Verbal Reasoning for Section 1 and your essays for Section 2.

On this course we will take you through the core component forms of sources used to test skills on Section 1 - Poetry, Cartoons, Archaic language, Literature, Interpreting Scientific studies and many others. In addition, we will produce a personalised approach to responding to any GASMAT essay topics, which have in recent years become more obscure and so less easily pre-preparable.Our head of section 2 (a 97 scorer in this section) will also provide personalised and detailed feedback on 15 of your essays during the course.

Full printed study guide
23 hours live teaching for S1 and S2
15 marked essays with detailed feedback by our head of Section 2 (last GAMSAT Score 97)
20 Mock S1 and S2 papers
Over 1000+ sample essays with detailed analysis
High quality animated videos for all topics
Personal guidance and mentoring from our head of S1and S2

Intensive Skills Course - Saturday August 2nd to Sunday September 7th 2025

Our intensive courses are designed to equip you with the core skills and competencies that the GAMSAT is examining. Over 23 years we have built an unrivalled understanding of not just what topic areas the examination makes use of, but of the underlying reasoning for using such material. This allows us to focus on what really matters for the GAMSAT, translating conceptual knowledge to the skills the exam is testing and the reasoning approach it takes. Using questions and the analysis of problems is key to doing well, and our focus is always on what you will be required to do in the examination.

Our approach is to develop and enhance all the core skills the GAMSAT is testing via this problem-based approach. We utilise our multiple resources developed over two decades to show you what you are likely to encounter, as well as how to deal with the inevitable unexpected.

The course runs on Weekends from Saturday August 2nd to Sunday September 7th 2025. It is composed of the following live teaching components and content:

15 Intensive Science Skills based sessions (50 hours total)
4 Science Strategy Sessions deconstructing the GAMSAT (13 hours total)
7 Weekly Tutorials every Wednesday evening (23 hours total)
8 Full Mock exams in the exact ACER format with full live reviews
8000+ Past GAMSAT Questions developed from the real exam
Books written and produced solely for GAMSAT in Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Maths for Science,
Reasoning in Humanities and Essay Writing
Over 30 additional GAMSAT Papers on our Online Platform
Personal guidance from our academic and student mentors

Mathematics for Science- June 2025

Many Section III questions rely on good numerical skills and the application of these to a range of theory across all of the sciences. Although the level of mathematics required is not necessarily advanced, it is crucial that you can deal quickly with standard form, logs, straight-line graphs, logarithmic graphs, linearising equations and many other such techniques.

Here we spend 2 full days analysing all of the common mathematical techniques you will encounter on the GAMSAT Examination. The focus is the application to simulated questions from our extensive question banks. We will show you how to use Mathematics as a tool to boost your overall score. Whilst mathematics itself is not tested in the exam, the course and accompanying 57 page book will equip you with an invaluable tool set moving your score in the right direction.
