Harris

I am a 19 year-old second year medical student at the University of Edinburgh with a great passion for mentoring and teaching younger students which I have done in the past during high school at national level for S1-S6 students. I would love to develop my transferrable skills and help with the delivery of medicine-related courses (UCAT, exam and interview preparation) for younger students as I learned a lot going through the process during a difficult time and I want to share my knowledge and tips to the next generations of applicants. I achieved all A1s at National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher level in high school and during my application to medicine I received a 2850 B1 in my UCAT and secured all 4 offers to the University of Edinburgh, Dundee, Glasgow and St. Andrews for 2022 entry. (and helped younger students achieve offers from the University of Aberdeen)

I feel as though I have the necessary patience and empathy to tutor students who may find it difficult to grasp confusing concepts therefore I feel I’d be good at breaking down complex topics into simpler terms by adapting to the student’s teaching style. I have noted and kept record of some of the resources which were extremely beneficial and accurate for me during my application and I am able to reflect upon the materials I utilised and provide the best possible advice for future students
