Med Boosters GAMSAT Prep Course

The Graduate Australian Medical School Admissions Test (GAMSAT) is a test used by medical universities in the UK and Australia.

The Graduate Australian Medical School Admissions Test (GAMSAT) was introduced to the UK by St George’s Hospital Medical School in 1999, and is now also used by Nottingham, Swansea, Cardiff, Liverpool, Exeter and Plymouth, St Andrews (ScotGem) medical schools.

Graduates applying to five year courses at Liverpool and Plymouth are required to sit the exam. Plymouth is unique as it offered the UK’s first graduate entry programme for dentistry, for which the exam is part of the admissions criteria.

The GAMSAT is a 6 hour exam, divided into 3 sections covering scientific and mathematical knowledge, interpreting ideas and essay writing.

The exam draws upon a wide ranging skill set and subject knowledge, naturally aligns it to the problem-based learning environment in most medical schools. Whilst the GAMSAT Exam is predominantly multiple choice based, it places great emphasis on reasoning ability and critical thinking.

It effectively gives a 360 degree overview of your ability to master information adeptly and select relevant responses within a limited time frame. It actively encourages a lateral thinking approach, thinking ‘outside of the box’. After all, the study and practice of medicine demands the ability to sift through, interpret and make swift judgements from ever increasing quantities of information and data.
