About Me
Hi there! I am Ahmad- a 2nd year medical student at the University of Leicester.
I did my medical school interviews and admissions tests 2 years ago, so the struggle of applying to medical school, as well as the hidden tips are still fresh in my mind!
Through my personal experience, I understood how difficult it can be to balance A-levels and applying for medical school. After going through the process myself and seeing other friends also go through the process and succeed, I believe that I can help you get into the medical school.
I have personally met many students who have amazing grades for medicine and have the passion to succeed too, but are not able to show this on paper and at interview. Through my UCAT, BMAT, personal statement, and interview preparation tutorials, I will ensure that you present the best version of yourself to medical schools and succeed in getting those offers.
Here’s a bit about my stats when applying to medical school (just to show that I am genuine!!):
GCSE: 11 A*
A-Level: 3A*, and A* in EPQ
UCAT: 2990
BMAT: 6, 6.2, 3.5A
Medical School: Distinction in First Year
My teaching style
I very much believe in active learning and getting the student involved as much as possible. Here is a breakdown of one of my typical lessons, e.g. for UCAT tutoring:
First 10-15 minutes: Actively teach the student about the theory behind the section that we are going to be looking at today
Next 30 minutes: Go over practice questions with the student, adapting the questions based on what the student is comfortable/struggling with
Next 15 minutes: Ask the student what they most want to work one, and have 15 minutes of intense practice on this
My past experience
