This parents-only seminar is a 2.5-hour session that covers all aspects of medical and dental entry (especially UCAT, interview, medical applications, and the academic challenges of Year 12), as well as a quick overview of medicine as a profession. 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 the student mentality, the role of parents, 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.
The workshop will also include a Q&A segment for parents to discuss any concerns that may have not been addressed.
There have been specific requests by parents for the following topics to be included in the talk:
- A timeline for pre-med, including direct entry for Year 12s, undergraduate pathways, partial undergrad transfers, postgrad pathways (GAMSAT), medical school, and the medical career
- The role of a parent: what help is essential, and what is too much?
- How to develop the ideal aptitudes for becoming a competent doctor
- Insight into the life of a doctor
- Validating your child's interest in becoming a doctor
- Whether to invest in a preparation course, the types of preparation courses available, and what you need to look for in a preparation course
- How iCanMed can help with your child's medical or dental journey
