The 3hr free workshop aims to cover all aspects of medical and dental entry for NZ and Australian medical schools(especially UCAT, interview, medical applications, and the common challenges involved in gaining successful selection). The seminar will be more than an informative session, as Michael Tsai (iCanMed's co-founder) will be sharing insights gathered from his last 11 years of working with thousands of students regarding what top students have done to secure their spot in their dream course and the ideal preparation timeline. Michael will introduce this preparation timeline by explaining what each medical entrance assessment requires, the do's and don'ts of preparation, and common misconceptions.
Coverage:
- Overview of the entire medical entrance process for UoA and University of Otago, and direct entrance requirements for Australian medical schools - complete with timelines, key barriers to success, and preparation recommendations.
- What makes the UCAT different from any other test, its format, and trends in results from the past two years.
- How questions are MEANT to be solved - live demonstrations using UCAT question types found in the 2019 exam.
- The best preparation strategy, which is efficient, effective, and doesn’t involve doing thousands of questions and mock exams.
- Quick overview of medical interviews and what you can do now to start preparing for it
- An ultimate preparation timeline showing when to start and what to do.
