GAMSAT Courses Ireland - Live Online and in Person

Designed to prepare students from every background, our courses will always be able to provide you with the knowledge and skills required to excel in the GAMSAT. We use only the same specialist tutors for each section, and in each of the sciences, who teach on our London courses. Our teaching resources, including well over 5000 pages of notes and 8000 simulated questions, have been developed since 2002 for this unique test. Our resources have not been re branded from unrelated MCAT material as with many of our competitors.

Full Preparation Course 2024 – Weekends Saturday 8th June to Sunday 8th September 2024

Running for three months we teach all of the core material and develop the extensive reasoning skills the exam requires. Coverage is intense and consists of 23 full days of teaching live in Dublin or Live Online. 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 enrolment. The aim is to provide a full holistic preparation where help is always available and questions never go unanswered.

The science modules develop both the knowledge and reasoning skills for all of the sciences tested on the exam. In Chemistry and Biology this equates to first year undergraduate level, and in Physics to leaving certificate standard. Students make use of over 5000 pages of extensive notes and over 8000 sample questions. This is in addition to the many thousands of questions provided via our online question banks and resources.

In section I we analyse and teach all of the key reasoning skills the exam demands, through our unique programme of training in the humanities and social sciences. This is supplemented with an extensive question bank derived from our experience of the examination.

For Section II students develop a unique strategy to write the two types of comparative essays sought by the examiners. This is done through our unique methodology, which has been developed since 2002 specifically for this examination. 

Physical and Organic Chemistry – 7 Full Days
Biology and Biochemistry– 5 Full Days
Physics and Medical Physics – 4 Full Days
Written Communication and Verbal Reasoning – 3 Full Days
Mathematics for Science – 2 Days
Science Strategy – 2 Full Days

You will finish the course by sitting twelve full mock examinations with full live reviews by our course tutors.

Course Content

Intensive Revision Course - August 2024

The Intensive courses are designed for those students who have a strong grounding in the sciences, and have undertaken extensive GAMSAT preparation themselves. We provide extensive notes and pre course guidance in advance, but the aim of the course is to develop reasoning skills through detailed question analysis, rather than teach all of the scientific and humanities information required. As such it is important students have carried out their own extensive study in advance of the course to derive most benefit from the teaching.

This includes working with our extensive Online Learning Centre using over 8000 past questions, videos and much more.

The course is broken down into the following units:

Physical and Organic Chemistry – 2 Full Days

Biology and Biochemistry– 2 Full Days

Physics and Medical Physics – 1 Full Day

Written Communication and Verbal Reasoning – 1 Full Day

Mathematics for Science – 2 Full Days

Science Strategy Weekend - 2 Full Days

You will also sit six full mock examinations as part of the course. As with the real exam these will be delivered via a digital format.

Mathematics for Science - June and August 2024

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.
