👨‍⚕️ Our UCAT Tutors are more than just high achievers...‍they curriculum experts and care about your success...just as much as you do! 📚

👨‍⚕️ What is the UCAT?

The University Clinical Aptitude Test, or UCAT, is the younger, meaner version of the UMAT. It's a computer-based test from the UK used by Universities as a standardized intelligence and aptitude test for Undergraduate Medical Degrees and Dentistry Degrees.

🎓 Who is the UCAT for?

Many undergraduate Medical and Dental Schools across the country require a UCAT result to be considered for an interview/entry, and often there will be a high cutoff depending on the university and the cohort of applicants. A list of universities can be found here, and each university will make it clear whether or not it is a requirement. So, if you’ve got an inkling to do either medicine or dentistry, I would highly recommend looking into the requirements for the Universities you’re looking to apply for.

💻 Preparing for your UCAT

Unfortunately, the UCAT is a nasty test that you'll be competing against some of the most driven people in the country to get the best UCAT score; meaning that you’re going to need to give it a red-hot crack. Overall, the UCAT isn’t a test you ‘study’ for, it’s more about developing strategies, perfecting processes, and mentally preparing yourself for it. That's why working with a UCAT tutor can be incredibly helpful in achieving your goals.

📝 Verbal Reasoning (VR)

VR is all about extracting information accurately and efficiently from a passage of text. You need to skim read for keywords as per each question, and use the flag and return strategy. Our UCAT tutors have years of experience helping students develop the strategies needed to succeed in the VR section.

🧠 Decision Making (DM)

DM is your logic section. Use diagrams, flow charts, anything that is going to help you. DM has the biggest array of question types, many that you’ll find a breeze, and some that will absolutely stump you, again, flag and return. With the help of a UCAT tutor, you can learn the strategies needed to tackle this challenging section.

➕ Quantitative Reasoning (QR)

Quick Maths. QR is all about reading the question, understanding what they want, and getting the answer as fast as you can. There are a few simple formulas you’ll need to know, but usually this will be stuff you’ve learned all through early high school, so don't worry too much. Our UCAT tutors can provide personalized instruction to help you master the QR section.

🌀 Abstract Reasoning (AR)

The first time you see the AR you’ll think it’s stupid, you get 13 seconds per question, and you’ll be sending photos to your mates. The main strategy? Develop a systematic approach to each question, and use it every single time. Our UCAT tutors can help you develop your own strategy that works for you.

💬 Situational Judgement Test (SJT)

This is a weird one, most universities openly admit that they don't care about the SJT, and that it might only be used to split 2 applicants with the same UCAT, ATAR and Interview (if applicable). Pretty much everything in here will be common sense. While the SJT may not be the most important section of the UCAT, working with a UCAT tutor can help you prepare for this section as well.

🏆 Let KIS Academics Help You Succeed

As a year 11 student doing ATAR, I was looking for a tutor that could help me with French. KIS Academics was incredibly helpful and fast at finding me a wace french tutor who could assist me with my studies. My tutor Eliza Carey over the past few months has helped me so much not only in French but in biology and maths as well. I’m incredibly grateful for the effort and commitment she has put into helping me be more comfortable and less stressed about the subjects I was having difficulty with. It’s been nothing but an honour to be tutored by Eliza and I strongly recommend her as a tutor

Warren Du Tutor

Warren Du - 99.15 ATAR - Medicine

Hello!

My name is Warren Du and I am currently a 2nd year medical student on the Doctor of Medicine course at the University of Queensland having graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a current GPA of 6.9.

A little about myself,

✔️ Currently studying Medicine with a undegraduate degree in Pure Maths

✔️ 99th UCAT Percentile

✔️ 99th GAMSAT Percentile (100 Section 3)

✔️ Achieved ATAR of 99.15

✔️ Sydney Boys Graduate

✔️ Have 6 years of Private Tutoring experience

While I am all of the above, this is far from who I was back in high school. I had to work through trial and error to see which studying habits worked and what didn't. Furthermore, I was caught off guard by the changing syllabus. I also didn't really know what I wanted to study at the time, but I wanted options to be available.

However, I pulled myself from being ranked 125 to a Top 10 student in one of the most competitive selective highschools in NSW to achieving the highest percentiles possible in both medicine entry exams, the UCAT and GAMSAT.

Well how?

Realising that taking mindless notes and brute forcing them into your memory a few days before the exam is not only highly inefficient but also stressful. Understanding the principles and absorbing the content via active recall principles many weeks prior to the exam.

I'll be constantly testing you and giving you my cues and tips - exam time management, weekly time management, avoiding careless mistakes and written responses.

It's incredibly important that your learning is supplemented by a encouraging and empathetic teacher that can understand what you are going through. However, a student's success is determined 70% by the student and 30% by the teacher. I guarantee my 30% but you must give me your 70% and together we can succeed.

Sophie Pisani Tutor

Sophie Pisani - 99.75 ATAR - Pharmaceutical Science and Health Sciences

Hi, I'm Sophie! I absolutely adore maths and science and I would be delighted to have you as a student!

My aim for tutoring is to help all students achieve their best and be proud of themselves! I do this by ensuring you feel comfortable and confident with your subjects through offering comprehensive sessions tailored to your learning style and needs. As someone who has always been dedicated to learning, I will strive to help you do your best and achieve your goals. I believe my enthusiasm and positivity towards these subjects, combined with my logical and structured approach, will help you to reach your full potential!

I graduated as dux of my school achieving an ATAR of 99.75 with VCE study scores of 50 in biology, 48 in further maths, 47 in both chemistry and maths methods and a 99th percentile score for the UCAT. I am now studying Dentistry at La Trobe University.

Throughout my high school years, whilst I undoubtably worked hard on my school work, I still ensured I made time for extra-curricular activities such as music, debating and dancing (as well as a full night’s sleep!). I continued this all the way through to year 12, where I was elected music captain. I found that involving myself in all these activities helped me study much more efficiently and effectively, requiring me to develop better study techniques and habits, and gave me a break from the stress of high school and VCE!

Want some more info about UCAT Tutors? 🙆

What is the UCAT?

The UCAT stands for the University Clinical Aptitude Test and is one of the criteria used by a majority of the Universities in Australia to select students for medicine and dentistry. It is a two-hour-long exam that you complete on a computer and it focuses on different skills and abilities that universities have identified as being pivotal to success in practising medicine or dentistry. There are 5 sections in this exam: verbal reasoning, decision making, quantitative reasoning, abstract reasoning and situational judgement. The UCAT, alongside your year 12 results and a rigorous interviewing process is what will ultimately determine whether you will be given a place in an undergraduate medicine or dentistry course, so this exam is very important. For more information have a read of the official UCAT Consortium’s website.

Should I get a UCAT tutor?

The UCAT can seem like a very daunting exam to prepare for, and going into the exam without preparing at all is not advised. Whether you're looking for a UCAT tutor in Adelaide or any other state, a tutor for the UCAT can be of great assistance as they can guide you through each of the sections and help you improve the speed and accuracy of your answers. Without this guidance, it could still be possible to self-learn the techniques and skills required, but it would be a harder journey to travel and having someone there to support you along the way is an invaluable resource.

Should I do UCAT tutoring in a group or individually?

This is ultimately dependent on how you learn best. If you feel that you are a student who can learn effectively in small groups alongside other students and learn together, then a group setting would be ideal. This would allow you to learn from the questions everyone else would be asking as well and ultimately broaden your understanding as well. Whereas, if you are a student who prefers the individualised tutoring approach, one-on-one sessions will work best. However, for the UCAT, generally, tutoring can entail discussions on how to best approach questions and how to focus on the skills and techniques the UCAT Consortium wants future medical students should have. Due to this, a group setting would facilitate deeper and more meaningful discussions due to the variation in thoughts and points that would be raised.

A high quality private tutor from KIS is not only a knowledgeable teacher who can answer all your questions, but an understanding friend who once had to face the same struggles that you are facing now.

Are your tutors any good?

You bet - you should check out our reviews!

KIS only hires the top tutors in each state.

We specifically hand pick and recruit the best tutors and top scorers of every year level, vet them with a thorough interview and application process, and then we take them through an intensive training program so that they become the best, most compassionate tutors who really know how to teach.

On top of that, we don't just hire the best, we treat our tutors well with top rates, personal development opportunities, plentiful resources for their subjects, and 24/7 administrative support.

Are your tutors qualified teachers or graduate students?

KIS Academics aims to hire young tutors who are relatable, friendly but also super smart tutors who are great at explaining things.
We firmly believe that tutoring should be delivered by someone with a different perspective to teachers at school. This ensures that tutoring doesn't just become another few hours of school, but a completely personalised time where students are taught in a very different, and better way.
You can read more about this in our blog post: Should I get a graduate tutor, or a teacher?

Why are some tutors more expensive?

KIS Academics has an extensive process for hiring tutors. When deciding whether a tutor should be Gold ($70/hour), Platinum ($90/hour) or Executive ($150/hour), our team evaluate factors such as academic performance, years of tutoring experience, feedback and reviews from students, university experience and degrees, other qualifications and overall performance within KIS Academics.

The biggest consideration when upgrading tutors to Platinum or Executive is years of teaching experience and positive feedback and results from past students.

As tutors develop their skillsets further and gain more experience and feedback, they progress through the three levels- ensuring high quality services to match the price they charge.

How do payments work?

Payments with KIS Academics are super easy.
Your 30 minute study skills consultation with your tutor is free

After your first lesson, we'll send an invoice to your email. You can pay it with your credit or debit card, or using Google or Apple Pay, just like when you buy something online! You can also pay via direct debit. Please note that we don't accept any other types of payment method.

Please make sure to pay this invoice within 3 days of your it being emailed to you.

All future invoices are billed after and only after lessons. We can save your card details to make payments easier, but if you don't want us to, just let us know at [email protected]. We'll never charge you before a lesson, and you'll always receive a receipt via email.
Here's some more information on how our payments work: How should I pay my tutor?

How long are lessons?

Lessons can be as long as you'd like them to be!

Because we provide private tutoring, all our services are personalised to you. So... if you'd like to do a 2 hour lesson in one week, just let your tutor know. If you'd like to do a 30 minute lesson in another week because you're really busy, just let your tutor know. If you want to make all of your sessions 1.5 hours instead of 1 hour... you guessed it! Just let your tutor know.

We're flexible and lessons can be the perfect length of time for the student.

How can I contact my tutor?

To request a tutor, just press the "Contact Me" button on your tutor's page and send them a message.

Your tutor will get in touch with you directly by giving you a phone call or sending you a text message.

We recommend you save their mobile number as a contact in your phone, so you can get in touch with them easily in the future!

What happens during the study skills consultation?

Study skills consultations are a free, 30-minute meeting with your KIS Academics tutor.
While we are 100% certain that you'll love our tutors, students and tutors also need to have what we call a personality-match. Students need to like their tutor and be comfortable enough to share difficult problems, frustrating questions, and see them for a few extra hours every week.

So, during this consultation session, tutors will focus on getting to know their student, finding out what their strengths and weaknesses are and then building a plan on how to get the most out of tutoring. You can read more about it here: Free One-to-One Study Skills Sessions

How do I organise lessons?

You can organise lessons directly with your tutor - no need to download any apps or go to any websites, text message and email will do the trick!

Your tutor will be in contact with you via text or email to organise all lessons, meaning you can reschedule and reorganise lessons whenever you need to just by contacting them!

What happens during lessons?

Our lessons are completely personalised to the student.
Every lesson is unique, and the sole focus of the tutor is to help a student find their weak spots, then help them overcome these.
Because our lessons are completely personalised, what happens during lessons is entirely up to you!
If you have specific content or questions to go over with your tutor, you can do that with them.
If you don't, your tutor will have a vast array of curriculum resources and content to go through with you.

We usually recommend our tutors to spend the first part of the lesson working through any questions the student has, then to go through curriculum content together, and finally summarise and make plans for the next lesson at the end.

I want a different tutor, can I ask for someone else?

Yes of course!
KIS Academics prides itself on matching students with the best tutor for them . We are successful at doing this 92% of the time.
We rarely have people ask for a different tutor.
If you do need someone else, for whatever reason, please contact us by emailing [email protected] or calling us on +61 485 868 009.

What if I need to cancel a lesson?

That's okay! We know life gets busy, so we can be flexible around your schedule too.

All you need to do is get in touch with your tutor directly and reschedule the lesson for another time.

However, please keep in mind that we have a cancellation policy - if you cancel a lesson less than 1 hour before the time you arranged with your tutor, you'll get charged 100% of the lesson fee. This is to ensure our tutors' time is respected.

So please, if you need to cancel or move a lesson, do it well in advance!
