    Hey, I am looking to purchase ozimed papers 2nd hand but in decent condition. They are crazy expensive on the internet for what you get. Do you still have some? How much do you want for them, I need them nice and cheap! Are you in Galway?


  • Registered Users Posts: 318 ✭✭galwayllm


    Hi Dr. Spock,
    The materials are now sold. I hope you find what you need!


  • Registered Users Posts: 56 ✭✭sparrow3


    Hi All,

    I am selling all my GAMSAT material.

    Ideally, these notes would be most beneficial to someone who has no previous chemistry or physics knowledge.

    The notes and books are not for sale individually but as a pack all together. Hopefully someone else will get the value from them that I did . I got a 70 on my Section 2 and a 61 on my Section 3 in September.

    People are more than welcome to view the notes before deciding if they want them- just message me.

    To give you a bit of background on the notes –
    I had never done chemistry or physics so was starting from the basics. When I went to the GRADMED course, I found that they presumed that you had a level of understanding of chemistry and physics already which I didn’t. While the notes cover every topic, they do not go into great detail of explaining the concepts to you. As a result, basic concepts such as how to calculate the numbers of moles in a certain volume of liquid were not explained and basically went straight over my head. These basic concepts are critical to understanding more complex topics in my opinion. To get to grips with understanding chemistry and physics, I went to a chemistry and physics lecturer for a few months who went through the entire GAMSAT syllabus for physical chemistry, organic chemistry and physics in detail. As part of this, I have detailed notes done up for every single topic – stereochemistry, benzene rings, Thermochemistry, Medical Physics, Current, etc

    To improve my technique of writing esssays and also to increase my general knowledge of possible topics, myself and 2 friends worked in a study group. We identified 30 broad topics (justice, technology, morality, etc) , identified a number of quotes for each and wrote essays on each topic . This gave me a good base knowledge of topics and ideas. While the essay style might not be valuable to people, there is a large volume of topics/quotes and ideas in the essays would be valuable.

    The Pack Includes:
    • Full set of DES O’ Neill Home Study Pack : Writing Better Essays, Science Revision Course, and Practicing MCQ course.
    • Full set of Gradmed Course Material: notes booklets for Physical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Section 2 Essays, Section 1 MCQ’s and Practice Questions/Tests booklet
    • Full set of Chemistry ( Physical and Organic ) and Physics notes as detailed above
    • 100 + Essays on a large variety of topics.
    • Range of Supporting Books
      • Organic Chemistry for Dummies
      • Physics for Dummies
      • Real World Physics ( leaving cert book)
      • Biological Science 1 & 2
      • Understanding Chemistry (leaving Cert book)

    PM or reply here.

    thanks


  • Registered Users Posts: 26 Cmack


    Hi G rock,

    I just successfully completed the gamsat and will most likely end up in UCD. Coming from a non-science background I had to I had to study very intensively and accumulated quite an array of materials for each of the sections.

    Including:

    Gradmed Practice Tests for Sections 1&3

    Examkrackers Mcat Verbal Reasoning Tests

    Extensive gradmed Notes for sections 1,2,3. For section 3 These are excellent and are concentrated on areas that actually come up on the test in Physics, Chemistry, Bio.

    I've also got some Text books that were very useful.

    You should PM me so we can negotiate what you want & price.

    Thanks

    Hi there, I’m selling my extensive set of GAMSAT materials that will see me a place in Dublin in September. I’m from a non-science background (just a B in Leaving Cert biology), so I started Chemistry and Physics from scratch and this was everything I needed. I spent well over a grand on it (worked it out almost €600 not including the gradmed notes!) so I’ll take the highest offer. It’ll cost a bomb to post as there’s so much stuff, so it’ll have to be collected from Dublin.

    Gradmed full prep course notes and sample questions:

    -GAMSAT Organic Chemistry
    -GAMSAT Physical Chemistry
    -GAMSAT Physics
    -GAMSAT Maths for Science
    -Written Communication (Task A)
    -Written Communication (Task B)
    -Simulated GAMSAT Question Papers, Section I (4 papers)
    -Simulated GAMSAT Question Papers, Section III (5 half papers&solutions)
    -All handouts and extra questions from the course


    Physics for Dummies
    Chemistry for Dummies
    Organic Chemistry for Dummies 1
    Organic Chemistry for Dummies 2
    Organic Chemistry for Dummies Workbook 1

    The Gold Standard GAMSAT (€110 new)

    Griffith’s GAMSAT review (PDF) (£34.95 online)

    Letts Revise AS&A2 Chemistry (recommended by Griffith’s)
    Oxford Revision Guides- AS&A Level Biology Through Diagrams
    A Primer to Mechanism in Organic Chemistry by Peter Sykes (recommended by Griffith’s)
    Orbit Molecular building system

    Examkrackers 101 Passages in MCAT (very helpful for Section I, £30 new)
    Practice tests for Diagrammatic & Abstract reasoning by Peter S. Rhodes (recommended by Griffith’s)
    ‘The Meaning of Things’ by A.C. Grayling

    Ozimed Papers 1-10 (€235 new)
    ACER papers (3 sets: Green, Purple, Blue; £68 new)

    Most of it I bought new, bar a couple of things, and I took pretty good care of it so everything's in decent condition. PM me if interested!

    Do those gradmed include past papers/ samples papers and how much are you looking to sell them for?


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 GOING4BROKE


    Hi Mednow or Sparrow, I am extremely interested in buying notes off either of you if there are any remaining notes left. Cheers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 GOING4BROKE


    Hi I am interested in buying some if not all of your material. How much are your looking to sell them for, considering I am a student with little prospect of earning anything in the near future :)

    Hi guys - have had a few public / private bids for the material - really just want to recoup some costs and certainly not "on the make" here, so happy to sell for E150 cash. If anyone is able to meet me some day this week / weekend in Limerick it seems easier than posting (which would cost a fair whack!). Just pm me....
