Admission preparation for human medicine
Are you looking for extra help with your admission to human medicine? Ireland is known worldwide for its high-quality education in this field. Universities like Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin and the National University of Ireland Galway offer high-intensity education programmes to become a great surgeon. Studying medicine usually takes five years and has a tough admission process. At UniProf we are here to help you get through it!
What does it take to get into medicine in Ireland?
Undergraduate medicine is one of the most competitive courses to get into in Ireland. Alongside strong Leaving Certificate results, applicants must sit the HPAT-Ireland (Health Professions Admission Test), an aptitude test covering logical reasoning, interpersonal understanding, and non-verbal reasoning. Your Leaving Certificate points and HPAT score are combined into a single CAO score, competition for places is high, and exact points thresholds vary by year and university, so it's worth checking the CAO website for the latest figures. If you're considering the graduate-entry route instead, admission is based on your primary degree results and the GAMSAT exam rather than the HPAT.

Different approaches work best for different students, and I tailor my classes to suit each individual, based on which sections or types of questions they feel they need the most work on.
