I achieved graduate entrance to medical school in 2004. Since 2005 I have worked as a GAMSAT tutor. Typically my GAMSAT students score from the mid-60s up to the early 80s as their overall score. Many of my GAMSAT students have achieved entrance to Melbourne University Medical Program. I help prepare students for all three sections, using extensive resources which are specific to each of the sections, including many hundreds of section III questions. I have worked during the past decade for both NIE, in UMAT preparation courses, and Gradready, for GAMSAT preparation courses. I essentially work as a trouble-shooter and coach, helping you to a growing awareness of your weaknesses, and helping plan strategies to combat these. At the end of your time with me your will be a uniquely well-rounded GAMSAT candidate.
I tutor all VCE and IB subjects, except for foreign languages, and have been working as an IB and VCE tutor for 14 years now, tutoring around 2000 students at this point.
Please contact me if you have any questions.

"I have been incredibly fortunate to have been aided by Lindsay in preparing for the GAMSAT exam. When I contacted Lindsay I was certain he was going to refuse me- I had a strong biology background but no prior chemistry, organic chemistry or physics background, and I hadn’t written argumentatively in close to a decade. He took the challenge and I am so grateful he did. Over the 5months we worked together Lindsay has transformed my knowledge and equipped me with the exact skills I needed to excel in the exam. He has remarkable insight and experience in GAMSAT preparation, adapting the sessions to meet my needs on any particular day was absolutely brilliant. As long as I followed through and completed the work, Lindsay was able to give me valuable, real time feedback that I could apply instantaneously to my study. Lindsay taught me about the way the exam is written. The questions are not what you would expect and he taught me to think differently, evaluate, consider and judge the questions efficiently so I could isolate the correct answers. When the studying got the better of me I found a great friend in Lindsay. Studying for the GAMSAT can feel like the loneliest experience however Lindsay helped me to stay strong, encouraging breaks, and then redirecting our sessions to keep me moving forward. On receiving my GAMSAT score I am stoked and ecstatic at my result, to see how far I have come is a huge personal achievement in itself. Thank you Lindsay."
