Oxbridge & medicine
Sami came to us six weeks before the deadline with no admissions test booked. The plan had to move faster, and it did.

Advisor
James Whitlow
Sami called us in the first week of October. He wanted to study medicine, had strong grades and had not yet sat the UCAT.
James built a week-by-week plan around the test date. Two hours of practice a day, one full paper each weekend, and a personal statement drafted in parallel.
“James made a mountain into a list. Every day had one thing on it.”
Sami, now studying Medicine at Imperial
Four mock MMIs in January turned a nervous speaker into a reflective one. He learned to pause, think aloud and say when he did not know.
Three interview invitations and two offers. He chose Imperial.
The outcome
Every result from the round, including the ones that did not go to plan.
