    Anyone interested in the following?

    Des O’Neill’s Practising MCQs Home Study Course 2010 – €200

    Gamsat ACER Practice Questions
    Gamsat ACER Sample Questions
    Gamsat ACER Practice Test €50


    Gradmed 10 booklets:
    1. Simulated Gamsat Question Papers - Section I Reasoning in Humanities and Social Sciences
    2. Simulated Gamsat Question Papers - Section III Reasoning in Biological and Physical Sciences
    3. Written Communications
    4. Written Communications
    5. Physics
    6. Organic Chemistry
    7. Organic Chemistry
    8. Maths for Science
    9. Physical Chemistry
    10. Biology

    I reckon the 10 booklets are worth about €400, considering Des O’Neill’s Practice Book cost me €200 (including postage to Ireland)

    Organic Chemistry I for Dummies - €16

    Collins Advanced Science Third Edition Physics – Ken Dobson, David Grace & David Lovett - €50

    Selling all the above for half the shown price, i.e. 50% less than what I paid. So, all the above cost me €716, and I’m selling the lot for €350.

    NOTE: Some of these booklets and tests are marked!

    Have you sold these I would be interested in buying all of it? Please email me at aislingheverin@gmail.com if you still have them. thanks

    Hi, I'm currently in the final year of my degree and am considering going the graduate route into medicine, however I don't feel like I have enough time to prepare for the gamsat in March and maintain focus on my degree to get the necessary 2.1. I'm now contemplating taking a year out after I finish in May solely to study for the gamsat in 2013 does anyone have any thoughts on if this is an achievable task my degree inst science based btw its in Law and I only did physics and biology for leaving cert so I'd be starting back chemistry with what I can remember for junior cert.

    Hi there,

    That is a difficult situation... A year out seems the best option since studying for law finals and the Gamsat will be very difficult. I did the exam in September in London with about 2 months study and got 59, however, so it is possible I'm sure! If I were you I'd spend the summer after you finish law studying and do it in September in London. From what I've heard it seems people generally do better in the London one. This seems to hold true in my experience, I thought I had done absolutely terribly and managed 59 which was good enough for anywhere in Ireland last year. My essay score saved me really, and I'm sure with a law degree you're more than capable of producing a coherent and well argued essay! The science is tough, especially the chemistry but I only did LC Physics so you've already got an advantage on me!

    Best of luck with whatever you do!

    Thanks for the reply, really appreciate it. Nice to know that it is doable from a nonscience background in that time period. I decided to take the plunge and apply for March anyway, if nothing else but to get some experience (rather expensive experience!). Doing reasonably well in September though is probably the more likely option.
