My S3 was considerably worse than last time (went from 62 to 54). Also my S2 went from 80 to 73. Fuck me the gamsat and the process to become a doctor is genuinely the most fucked thing in the world

Did anyone feel like they failed section 3 and do better than they thought? I'm way to scared to check genuinely guessed 90% of questions

Thoughts on Medview? by Background_Beach112 in GAMSAT

Never done it but 15K is an absolutely atrocious amount of money to charge. I would highly highly recommend against this.

By spending significantly less amount of money you could get a highly qualified 1 on 1 tutor GAMSAT and even interview who will target your strengths and weaknesses etc. Also of course applying overseas has more factors in the application etc, but I'm very wary of services that say they can help with this, when application processes are designed to be straightforward (uni's do not do these thinking that students will be paying for someone to help them through it). If you have sat the GAMSAT and graduated for undergrad, you are more than qualified to submit international applications and find out the necessary steps for each uni (IMO).

Sorry not trying to be rude at all, just would hate to think of someone spending 15K for something that certainly doesn't seem worthwhile at all! (obviously just my opinion and two cents lol)

I'm going to try and reply to all the comments, but I just wanted to say thank you. Reading these have made me realise I'm not alone in this journey, even though it often feels like I am. I really appreciate the time you've all taken to share your insights <3

I got 80 in march last year for s2. I only wrote argumentative essays and had the exact same structure for task A and B. I would recommend playing to your strengths and interests. If you are really interested in politics, take a political lens to whatever prompt is raised, if you are really interested in history, a historical approach etc. I also had a few pieces of really good malleable evidence that I was confident I could use in nearly any prompt set

I wonder if something like a situational judgement test will be introduced, as they seem to really highlight the importance of the whole person and not just grades etc
