GAMSAT scores are part of the entry requirements in 11 UK medicine graduate entry programmes, as well as the dental surgery programme at Plymouth University and the Master of Science degree at the University of East Anglia. Outside of the UK, 2 universities in Poland and St George's medical programme at the University of Nicosia in Cyprus likewise include GAMSAT scores in their entry requirements.
It is important to note that applications for admission to these programs are different from the registration process and sitting of the GAMSAT exam.
GAMSAT results for the September sitting become available in mid-November while scores results for the March sitting are released in late May.

GAMSAT scores are mapped onto a scale which ranges from a high of 100 to a low of 0.
A 'good' GAMSAT score depends on a cohort's performance and the medical school's requirement.
GAMSAT results are released within 2 months of sitting the exam. See previous release dates.
Average, good and high GAMSAT scores are relative terms and, as such, are dependent on perspective.
GAMSAT preparation requires, on average, 3-6 hours per day for 3-6 months depending on your academic background, availability and personal circumstances.
Improve your GAMSAT score in 4 key steps: self-assessment, a study plan with realistic goals, implementation, "rinse and repeat"!
Gold Standard GAMSAT has assembled an extensive list of free GAMSAT preparation materials and section guides to help you achieve a higher GAMSAT score.
10 GAMSAT practice tests designed to develop your exam-level reasoning & strategies, with scaled scores to help gauge your progress.
GAMSAT scores are interchangeable and can be used to apply to any university that requires the GAMSAT. You may sit GAMSAT UK (September) or GAMSAT Ireland (March) to apply to any medical programme that requires this exam - irrespective of the country (i.e. Ireland, Australia or the UK). You must ensure that your scores have not expired if you are using a score from a previous sitting of the GAMSAT (i.e. GAMSAT scores cannot be more than two years old). Otherwise, you choose the GAMSAT score that you wish to submit for consideration for admissions.

"When I decided to take GAMSAT, I was completely lost and did not know where should I start since I did not have a science background. . . I purchased the book that guided me around main topics and the HEAP book with 10 practise tests, I watched every single available webinar, I did live courses on campus, and used essay-correction services."
"I HIGHLY recommend both the books and the online resources which have had a huge amount of time and effort put into preparing them."
"This course is absolutely perfect. Felt overwhelmed for all three sections before I started studying for the GAMSAT, and this helped me so much for all of them. Found the Humanities textbook to be very beneficial for sections 1 and 2, and the videos (both science videos and acer answers) to be the best for section 3. Essay correction service was also excellent - they dont just give you general replies - they breakdown your essays completely, and give examples of how you could have said things differently..."
"For someone from a Non-Science Background such as myself, having these resources available to help me understand why I was getting questions wrong, and to provide a possible method for solving each of these questions was amazing. I can't thank Dr Ferdinand and his team enough for his work."
"I just received my GAMSAT results and I'm over the moon with the results! I certainly would not have been able to do it without your help!"
"Absolutely fantastic! More than just basic/required knowledge but the reasoning skills that you need to do well in GAMSAT!"
"I don't know how I would have prepared without Gold standard!!!!! Absolutely amazing especially all the Youtube videos with worked solutions, the textbook and online videos and chapter review questions. Would HIGHLY recommend if you are serious about preparing for GAMSAT!!!"
Gold Standard GAMSAT provides a great basis for anyone studying for the Gamsat. Dr Ferdinand is extremely experienced and gives honest advice and is always willing to advocate other useful resources too. I would recommend these materials to anyone!
Took their 4 day course (Section 1 & 2, bridging day, and 2 days of section 3), and found it INCREDIBLY helpful. It really pointed out where I needed to fill the gaps in my knowledge, where I was wasting time learning content that just wouldn't be relevant, and how to tackle problems and identify patterns that show up repeatedly on the test. I don't think anyone goes into the GAMSAT feeling fully prepared, but I have a much better idea now of how to deal with the questions, and where to focus my energy, thanks to this course! Would definitely recommend it :)
Dr Ferdinand is an amazing teacher, very enthusiastic and helpful throughout! Highly recommend gold standard resources especially if you're from a non-science background.
