I guess when I set up this thread I was being a bit foolish, it's obviously a haven for HPAT prep course shillers. :rolleyes: Really, kinda shameful trying to trick kids into taking these courses based on lies, no?

i agree, the post above by 123xyz does seem a bit dodgy:) one post about the hpat where they name the website:rolleyes: it is unfair if people are lying:(

that post does look dodgy, and i'm annoyed because i actually shelled out for courses and can give real advice on them but now probably nobody will believe me :rolleyes:

well at the end of the day, i got my place in medicine and this is the course that got it for me. Whether you take my advice or not is up to you but im just trying to tell you my experience with it and how it compares to others because unlike some, i actually know what im talking bout here. I know it may sound dodgy and all but you're all looking for a way to improve your score and im giving you the honest advice your looking for. When next june comes along im not gonna be the one disappointed. If anyone has any questions i would be happy to help ... <snip>

When next june comes along im not gonna be the one disappointed. If anyone has any questions i would be happy to help and that is in relation to **** ,the institute or the actual test itself

well i know someone who got 202 and he got the 100th percentile! that's what i found hard to believe considering you said you got 203 and the 99th percentile. i have never done the hpat so maybe i'm completely wrong here but this does not make any sense to me

And you're about the 15th reg. who ...

... got a HPAT score in the 99th percentile, all down to one course, and is such a concerned citizen that they come on here and register especially to tell everyone at length and glowingly about it!!

So many deleted posts in this thread!! >.<

202 wasn't the 100th percentile, i sat the hpat in '09 and '10, got 99th percentile both times and my scores were 203 and 211
