The Pre-admission Game
by Fraser's GAMSAT
Scoring a medical admission is hard work. There are so many different hurdles that it’s hard to keep track of all the acronyms. GAMSAT, UCAT, interviews, portfolios, university values – where do you even start? At Fraser’s, we believe that medical pre-admission is a game – not because it is easy, but because you need to know the rules to play and win. In this podcast, we are going to demystify every aspect of getting into medical school.Contact us at: [email protected]
