Publisher's Synopsis
The GAMSAT is an annual exam aimed at students in Australia, UK and Ireland who who want to study postgraduate Medicine.
GAMSAT test questions have frequencies, patterns, tendencies and styles which can be predicted and prepared for. The Guru Method GAMSAT preparation books are designed to give the candidate an edge over those studying purely from traditional textbooks. This will make GAMSAT preparation more efficient.
It is not enough that the candidate follows a study guide or read about examples and sample questions in a book. It is vital that the GAMST preparation contain practise on gamsat papers, practise tests or sample questions modelled after the actual exam.
That is where Michael Tan's GAMSAT prep books shine, it is full of GAMSAT practise questions, sample questions modelled after the GAMSAT paper.
Michael Tan's Guru Method first edition was published in 2004, and has helped over three thousand GAMSAT candidates achieve their goals of passing the GAMSAT test.
As part of the 9 part course on GAMSAT prep, the Essays study guide book will cover;
- In depth analysis of GAMSAT Section 2 essays written by previous GAMSAT candidates on sample GAMSAT exam questions.
- Section 2 is a unique part of the GAMSAT paper since it is the only section of the GAMSAT test that is NOT multiple choice. Some would even call this section "subjective". It presents a very unique challenge in GAMSAT Preparation, hence why Section 2 is one of the most underprepared sections in the GAMSAT exam.
- Essay analysis specifically gives prescriptive advice on action steps to improve the essay.
- Sample gamsat paper questions answered by past candidates with full analyses.
- Benchmark your own essays against the competition and see how you stack up, this takes away the "subjective" element of Section 2 scoring.
- See how the same Section 2 question can be approached by candidates in different ways, and the strengths and weaknesses of each approach.
