Students and parents often have very nice things to say about our courses and our team. So whenever medical school gets us down, we have a read through this page and it brightens up our day.

Reviews

Here’s a selection of some of the comments students and parents have left us over the years. The longer-form ones were emailed in, whereas the more bite-sized comments were left behind on feedback forms at the end of our courses. We haven’t edited the comments in any way, except to black out the names of competitors wherever they’re mentioned – it’s just classier that way.

UCAT Support 

Personal Statement Support

I would just like to say a huge huge thank you for helping me obtain all 4 medicine offers! I attended your UCAT and Interview courses (which would not have been possible without your generous bursaries!), along with having my personal statement checked. All 3 100% enabled me to obtain interviews and then offers 🙂 Everyone who I met was super friendly and up for banter aha which made the whole process a little less daunting!

I would just like to say a massive thank you to 6med for creating these courses. I attended both the UCAT and BMAT crash courses and would wholeheartedly recommend both. The UCAT crash course in particular was superb; from the amazing 6med team (shoutout to Dan from UCL!) delivering the course on the day, to the even more amazing course handbook (which you can tell they put so much hard work in creating and which became my bible whilst revising). As a gap year student the first time I sat the UCAT, and not having attended the course, I score an average of 615 (VR:510, QR:630, DA:680, AR:640). Second time round, after attending the course, I scored an average of 707 (VR:590, QR:710, AR:820!). The BMAT crashcourse with the BMAT Ninja are also an incredible value for money, and I have since gotten an offer from UCL 🙂 Ps: their website has incredible articles for the personal statement and interview.

Hi 6med! Gap year student here – first time I applied for medicine (2015) I didn’t attend any courses whatsoever and was completely lost with my UCAT preparation, used outdated resources that weren’t representative of the real thing (ISC 600 Q’s book 2013 edition…) and I didn’t follow any strategies – leaving me with a very poor UCAT score. Upon my reapplication (2016) I decided to go on your UCAT crash course, and thanks to the UCAT course handbook and the way that the course was delivered, I was able to improve my UCAT score by 190 points!! I realised what I did wrong last year, and ended up adopting the 6med strategies for success, and I am so grateful to you guys because I genuinely don’t think I could have done it without you 🙂 You made my UCAT preparation so much easier and efficient, even though I was already familiar with the UCAT I learnt so much more than I possibly could have alone. Result: 4 interviews this year (last year I had none) which has increased my chances of hopefully getting an offer..Oh and also, the support that I got even after attending the UCAT crash course via email for last minute questions – way unexpected. I would imagine most companies wouldn’t bother or truly care about the students after the course ends, but you guys have gone beyond in being there for every step of the process if needed, until receiving offer. So a massive thank you!! 🙂

I wanted to say how impressive and helpful the course run at Manchester Urmston Grammar was. I only discovered UCAT crash course from a google search, but I would like to promote your course at the school I attend. Thank you thoroughly for a fun and challenging day.

Before the course I didnt really know much about the UCAT and in the few practice questions that I had done I was rarely getting them right in time. After the course I was doing much better because it taught me how to approach the questions and find the answer, and how to save time (this definitely helped on the day!). I was very happy with the score that I got in my UCAT and I think I would have ended up with a lower score if I hadn’t been on the UCAT crash course.

The course was fantastic and dramatically increased my self-confidence. I did my UCAT test at the end of September and my UCAT score increased by 30% compared with last year which I am more than happy with. This is of course due to attending your course. I just wanted to say thank you very much, I can’t explain how grateful I am.

It was absolutely fantastic! The course was informative and funny. The tutors were friendly and had a good sense of humour. The mock interviews in front of everyone was an eye-opening experience and was valuable. Thank you guys for all your help in my UCAT.

Hope everything is good – I was at one of your UCAT courses in Imperial last year. Now I’m lucky enough to have a firmed an offer from King’s College London and insure an offer from Liverpool (as well as turn down another medical school!) I seriously think that getting these offers was down to a very high UCAT score – SO THANK YOU! If you have any tips for surviving in London (esp around London Bridge) then please let me know! I’ve also signed up for your partner scheme so look forward to working with you on that – the early signs are good! Thank you so much guys!

Fantastic. I used your UCAT Crash course, UCAT Ninja, and the Personal Statement Review service. I scored 747 (Band 1 SJT), could not have done it without you guys! PS Review, excellent and prompt (thank you Ali!). Would definitely recommend 6med! 

Anon, Kent

Firstly I would just like to say a big thank you for all the help and support you have given me. Everyone was very friendly on the Crash Courses that I attended (UCAT and Interview) and they were all very helpful. I am certain I would not have gotten my UCAT Score without both the support and advice on the Crash Course and UCAT Ninja. In the end I got an average of 770 and even surprisedly managed to get 900 on AR and 800 on QR! I would highly recommend this course to everyone I know as it is 100% worth it and it’s the cheapest and most reliable course that I could find. Thanks to my UCAT I was able to get all of my interviews from all the universities that I applied to (Kings, Queens, St Georges and Birmingham) and have received offers from three of them so far. Still waiting on Kings! I want to thank you also for having a look through my personal statement and helping me improve it and giving me valuable suggestions! The friendliness and supportive atmosphere created at the Interview crash Course was lovely and really helped with my confidence and consolidating my thoughts and approach to a Medical School Interview. The preparation and information I received that day about both MMI interviews and Panel interviews was vital and I believe helped me to prepare for all of my interview. Thank you very much on helping me through this long and hard medical school application journey. I couldn’t have done it without your dedication and hard work! Thank you! 🙂

 Their website has incredible articles for the personal statement and interview.

The course was fantastic – I could not have asked for better. The tutors were friendly and engaging, and made the intense day of teaching enjoyable. I feel way more confident on my personal statement after going through the best tips to ace it and get into my dream university.

For those who are questioning whether 6med courses are good. They’re not, they are more than good, they are AMAZING! 6MED are great and i’ve recommended them to all my friends. The price is worth it.

Reema, Currently on gap year

This course helped me a lot to build confidence to deliver a strong Personal Statement. The tutor was super good and guided me through the best tips and techniques that helped me ace my Statement.

Marina, Offer from Oxford

I improved my personal statement a lot, I was able to develop my ideas better with the tools that 6med offers, I thank you all for your help.

Lariza, Offer from Oxford

I wrote my personal statment better than all previous times, I had clearer ideas and thoughts about what I wanted to raise thanks to 6med.

Interview Support 

I attended the Interview Crash Course on 15th November at Imperial in place of my daughter, who was unable to get there as she had injured her knee the day before during a lacrosse match. I just wanted to say a really big thank you to the instructors, Samah and Seb, who were both most impressive and passed on a huge amount of information in a really interesting and memorable way. Could you please let them know that I think they did a fantastic job and that I have since been able to pass on most of what they said to my daughter. The booklet you produced to go with the course is also proving to be an invaluable learning tool, so fingers crossed when it comes to interview time.

I attended one of your courses last month in London, ahead of my three med school interviews. Just wanted to say a huuuuuge thank you, since your course gave me a really big confidence boost as well as providing me with the nifty little details in the course book which certainly gave me an edge in the interviews!

Thank you so much for letting me attend the course this weekend in Cambridge after I couldn’t come last Sunday. It was a really great day and I am definitely feeling more confident about interviews! The course was a brilliant opportunity and has really boosted my interview preparation!

This is just to say the interview course today was top banter. Seriously though, it was really helpful and although I struggled at the beginning, by the end I could string a sentence together with decent content. The interviews don’t terrify me as much any more! Thanks so much and keep doing awesome courses!

Found it really useful – especially the mock Oxford interview. It helped me to think more laterally about my answers and reflect on my personal experiences. Putting us on the spot gave me chances to think on my feet and simulate interview conditions and pressure. Thank you!

The interview course really helped to analyse different parts that could come up that I’d never thought about and actually get into the mindset of being prepared for an interview – not by practising lines but generally have responses for certain subjects.

Just wanted to let you know, that the interview crash course at Cambridge was extremely helpful and informative. Helped me loads. Katherine, Samah and Seb were awesome! Keep up the great work guys!

Interviewer Quality – amazing especially the acting.

I like how the interviewers have thorough feedback for each section. I think it will really help me to improve my interviews.

The contents of the course were quite useful. Important questions that may come up during real interviews were asked as well. I really do like the interview crash course book as it is filled with essential information for interview preparation.
