    Hi All,
    I am selling my GAMSAT notes. To give you some background, I have just finished my first year in Graduate Medicine in UL which was brilliant. I came from a non science background so needed a bit more help than most in the sciences – particularly chemistry.

    I did the Full Prep GRADMED course in London and have the full set of booklets. This course was great because they cover pretty much every topic that could come up in the GAMSAT. The only issue, as with the Des O’ Neill notes is that the booklets do not go into a huge amount of detail (they are more summaries) and there is a presumption that you already have a level of physics/chemistry competency. As a result, many topics went over my head and I found a lot of the university chemistry books complex and difficult to understand.

    To really understand Physical and Organic Chemistry, I got Chemistry grinds from a university lecturer who specialises in the GAMSAT section 3. I went to approximately 40 classes and covered every topic in the GRADMED/DES O NEILL course outline in detail. (Sparrow3 went to the same guy). I have detailed notes on each topic and have supporting notes which he gave me.

    I also partook in a study group which focused purely on Section 2 essays. The best advice I got prior to the exam was to practice, practice, practice essays and to cover as many topics as possible to give me as wide a knowledge base as possible. As a group, we identified 30 broad topics and 5 quotes under each topic ( war, morality, social prejudice, etc). We then each took a quote and wrote an essay. As a result, I have 50+ essays on a variety of section A and Section B essays.

    Adjunct to that I have Leaving Cert Books and the ‘…for Dummies’ series, sample papers, and UKCAT & HPAT papers which are also useful.

    Hi All,
    I’m selling the GAMSAT material that got me a 61, still
    waiting for replies from Irish and Australian universities.
    I first did the GAMSAT UK in September 2010, but I didn’t take it very seriously. Bought Griffiths GAMSAT Review and Des O’Neil course but didn’t even use it. The course included essay marking that I didn’t use. Surprisingly, I didn’t do very well.
    Gave it another shot and really studied for the GAMSAT Ireland held in March 2011 while finishing my final year at university.
    My undergrad is in mechanical engineering, so, in theory, I was only really prepared for the 20% of section 3 which is physics. However, I even had difficulty with the physics as most of it is not related to what I have studied.
    So I was pretty much a newbie in all sections.
    I live in London; these items are only available for those in the U.K and Ireland.
    Items under each heading are not for sale individually, they must all be bought together.
    Prices are low because I need to sell everything fast.

    WHAT’S FOR SALE?

    ACER Booklets

    Original price for all booklets: £84 + £0
    I’m selling: £64 + £0

    · Sample Questions
    · Practice Questions
    · Practice Test
    · Practice Test 2

    Griffiths GAMSAT Review 2010 & books recommended by him

    Griffiths GAMSAT Review 2010 edition: This guide was the core to my GAMSAT studies. I strongly suggest you buy it, if not from me than anyone else. I bought this guide for £25 in 2010. The GAMSAT review guide for 2011 is now selling for £34.95. I don’t know if it has any extra content over the 2010 edition.

    Price is so low because this is a printed version (black and white) of the PDF book, I used it all the time so it has lots of notes, highlighted parts and doodles (tend to doodle when I get bored of studying) on it. But you can definitely still study from it.

    Original Price of 2010 guide: £25
    I’m selling for: £1.00

    · Letts Revise AS & A2 book for Chemistry
    · Letts Revise AS & A2 book for Biology
    · Letts Revise AS & A2 book for Physics

    I studied for Section 3 mostly from these 3 books. They explain topics very well, are easy to follow and very clear.

    Original Price of each book: £17.99
    I’m selling each for: £8.00

    · CGP AS Level Biology Edexcel exam board revision guide, 2004. Not recommended by Griffiths but I used it as it explained some things better than the Letts.

    Original price: £9.99
    I’m selling for: £2.00

    · Practice Tests for Diagrammatic and Abstract Reasoning (Succeed at Psychometric Testing) by Peter Rhodes, second edition 2008.

    Original Price: £9.99
    I’m selling for: £3.00


    Complete Medprep Basic Home Study GAMSAT Preparation Course 2011

    Bought this course mainly for all the GAMSAT style MCQ questions and notes on Section 1 it has.

    Original Price: £230 + £48 postage and handling
    I’m selling for: £200 + £0 postage and handling

    NOTE: The Books are dated 2009-2010 but I bought the course at the end of February 2011. I guess the course hasn’t changed.

    · This course did not include sending essays for marking

    · 3 Full length GAMSAT practice tests with answers, no explanations for answers.
    NOTE: The actual Basic course should only come with 2 Full length exams, but because there were some mistakes in the material, they gave me an extra exam. (See email from Medprep at end of post)

    · 1 Half Length Diagnostic GAMSAT practice test with answers, no explanations for answers.

    · Book on all Chemistry, Biology and Physics topics that may come up in the GAMSAT. Each topic ends with 10 multiple choice concept building (not GAMSAT style) questions with answers. I didn’t use this book because I used the Letts books.

    · Book with techniques for solving/analysing all types of Section 1 questions (Prose, Poetry, Social Sciences and Cartoons). Includes 295 GAMSAT style questions for section 1 (116 prose, 103 poetry, 64 social sciences and 12 cartoons) with answers BUT no explanations. Same book also includes techniques for Section 2 with GAMSAT style essay questions and model essay answers. Used this a lot, very helpful.


    Complete Des O’ Neil Home Study Pack: Writing Better Essays, Science Revision Course, and Practicing MCQ course 2010.

    Bought this course mainly for the large number of GAMSAT style Section 3 MCQ questions it has.

    Original Price for 2010 course: £560 + £60 postage and handling
    I’m selling for: £230 + £0

    · This course did include sending essays for marking; I am only selling the notes from the essay course.

    · Writing better essay notes: 8 sessions each with two essay writing tasks. Each session has essay writing tips and so many sample essays that you will feel sick. I don’t suggest reading them all, especially before you attempt the task. I am missing the tasks for session 1 but have all the other notes for it.

    · Des O’Neil Prognostic Preparatory Test: 50 GAMSAT style Humanities and Science MCQ’s with explained answers.

    · Science Revision Course Book: Similar layout to Medprep science book. I didn’t use it because I used the Letts books. HOWEVER, the end of the book includes 150 GAMSAT style Section 3 MCQ’s with explained answers which were worth doing.

    · Practising MCQ’s Book: 400 science and humanities GAMSAT style MCQ’s and a Full length GAMSAT practice test. All questions include explained answers. The book also includes missing answer explanations from the ACER Sample Questions and explanations for all the answers in the ACER Practice Test.


    Most materials are in great condition, no marks or anything. I made sure while studying not to mark or highlight as I knew I was going to sell everything once I had finished.

    The only parts with some marks are:
    · Griffiths GAMSAT Review: see product description.
    · The first 3 sessions of the Des essay notes have some doodles on them, but otherwise in good condition.
    · The Letts AS & A2 chemistry book has some highlighted sections with a few written notes but it is all very neat.
    · The Letts AS & A2 biology book has some highlighted parts but not many.
    Everything else is in very good condition.
    Want them, any questions- just message me.
    Best of luck with the prep!!

    Below is the email the Medprep team sent me with the mistakes on the material: I will print it off and send it with the other Medprep items to whoever buys them.
    DearMedPrep Student,

    We would like to offer you alist of corrections for typographical errors found in our Basic GAMSAT Preparation Course. You may wish to print and append this email to your printed and bound course materials. In just a few minutes, you can locate the applicable pages in the printed and bound course materials and make the corresponding corrections by hand. We have included an extra full-length simulated GAMSAT exam (Take-Home Simulated GAMSAT 3) in your printed and bound course materials to make up for any annoyance J

    Course Books:

    A.Course book: Physics: Units & Kinematics: Quick Questions: Question 8:p. 45: Answershould be 125m which is not one of the multiple choice options provided.Approximate g = 10m/s/s. Maximum height occurs when v = 0. Hence, the equation in the solution becomes 0 = 50 – 10t. Thus - 10t = -50 and t = 50/10 so t=5. Thus: h = 50(5) – ½(10)(25) = 125m. Answer B is the closest possible answer of the choices provided (i.e.120m).

    B.Course book: Physical Chemistry: Acids & Bases: p. 519: Diagram at bottom left is correct but incorrectly labelled. "H+ ions exceed OH-" instead of "OH- ions exceed H+". Diagram at bottom right is correct but incorrectly labelled. "OH- ions exceed H+" instead of "H+ ions exceed OH-".

    C.Course book: Physical Chemistry: Acids & Bases: p. 521: NH3 is incorrectly drawn. "N" should be in the centre of the molecule rather than "H".

    D.Course book: Physical Chemistry: Acids & Bases: p. 533: Binary acidity increases in strength from the left to the right of a period in the periodic table. Diagram is correct while text is incorrect (i.e. Binary acidity increases in strength from the right to the left of a period). pg. 536: Monoatomic anionic bases increase in strength from the RIGHT of a period to the LEFT (not vice versa).

    E.Course book: Physical Chemistry: Phase Equilibria: p. 496: Quick Questions: Question 5: Answer should include "600 cal divided by 80cal/g" instead of "600 cal x 80cal/g".

    F.Course book: Organic Chemistry: p. 657: the diagram labelled 1,2-dimethylcycloheptane should be called 1,3-dimethylycycloheptane.

    G.Course book: Organic Chemistry: p. 660: the diagram labelled 2-Heptanone should be called 3-Heptanone.

    Hi All,
    I am selling my GAMSAT notes. To give you some background, I have just finished my first year in Graduate Medicine in UL which was brilliant. I came from a non science background so needed a bit more help than most in the sciences – particularly chemistry.

    I did the Full Prep GRADMED course in London and have the full set of booklets. This course was great because they cover pretty much every topic that could come up in the GAMSAT. The only issue, as with the Des O’ Neill notes is that the booklets do not go into a huge amount of detail (they are more summaries) and there is a presumption that you already have a level of physics/chemistry competency. As a result, many topics went over my head and I found a lot of the university chemistry books complex and difficult to understand.

    To really understand Physical and Organic Chemistry, I got Chemistry grinds from a university lecturer who specialises in the GAMSAT section 3. I went to approximately 40 classes and covered every topic in the GRADMED/DES O NEILL course outline in detail. (Sparrow3 went to the same guy). I have detailed notes on each topic and have supporting notes which he gave me.

    I also partook in a study group which focused purely on Section 2 essays. The best advice I got prior to the exam was to practice, practice, practice essays and to cover as many topics as possible to give me as wide a knowledge base as possible. As a group, we identified 30 broad topics and 5 quotes under each topic ( war, morality, social prejudice, etc). We then each took a quote and wrote an essay. As a result, I have 50+ essays on a variety of section A and Section B essays.

    Adjunct to that I have Leaving Cert Books and the ‘…for Dummies’ series, sample papers, and UKCAT & HPAT papers which are also useful.
