I prepare the student for the entrance exam for medicine and/or dentistry. Because a lot of work goes into this, I recommend enjoying both early and well-planned preparation so that the chances of passing this exam are optimal.

The subjects covered are mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics. The silent reading text of the afternoon part is also drilled. Tips are also given regarding taking the exam itself, the structure of the questions and how best to start.

If you are struggling with your studies or to understand concepts for your exams you can ask me. I have a lot of material available such as medical books, videos, slides and other resources. I work a lot with illustrations and screen sharing to explain concepts to students. Also, my courses are structured and I provide tips on how to achieve best performance during exams auto study tips as well.
I am now an experienced medical student finishing off my theoretical part and I totally understand your struggles. If you feel like I can help you please feel free to drop a message. I will teach you from different perspectives and a lot of comprehension. There are no weird questions to me. As most subjects flow into each other, I focus on clinical diseases or blocks of systems I.e cardiology would be focusing on development, physiology, anatomy, clinical pictures with cases etc. It’s all intertwined and hence truly fun to teach. I can adapt my courses to individuals with very specific questions and offer long term support.

Do you want to maximize your chances of passing the entrance exam to study medicine and dentistry in Belgium? This training is for you!

Less than 7% of enrollees passed the exam in 2022. More than 93% of enrollees will therefore not be able to start their dream studies! Half of the exam covers topics as varied as ethics, empathy, communication and reasoning. Even if we all have notions on these subjects, few are those who have studied these subjects. By following my personalized training, you will study the basic theoretical notions, you will understand the requirements of the competition, you will learn the tips and tricks of the questions and you will practice on the exams of the previous years.

This individual online training was successfully given to students in Belgium, France (mainland and overseas) and Switzerland; they have multiplied by 10 their success rates in the competition! Plan your success to study and pursue your dream career

Getting into undergraduate medicine is hard. Most medical schools have a 20% acceptance rate with some as low as 4%. Without the help, advice and support I was offered I didn't stand a chance. Now I am studying at the Best University in the UK (Guardian and Sunday Times). From the UCAT to personal statements, from strategic applications to Interview prep. I'm here to help!

Briefly about me:
I passed the MedAT on the first try this year. Structured learning and a common learning strategy made it much easier for me to pass the test. I would like to help you with that. But the mental part during the test and in the preparation also plays a big role. All of these factors should always be taken into account. I can't write the MedAT for you, but I can prepare you for it with the best of conscience.
