Our Mission
Cut through the crap of the GAMSAT prep industry to deliver smart, sensible, and effective GAMSAT resources for everyone.
Who We Are
Meet Lexi.
Lexi is the founder & author of No Bullshit GAMSAT.
She is now a final year med student, but she was in your shoes not too long ago.
She sat the GAMSAT during her arts degree, navigating confusing advice, terrified of not having a science background, and wary of overpriced & outdated prep courses.
With a bit of trial and error (and a desire to avoid learning physics as much as humanly possible…), she developed a problem-solving approach that landed her with a 69/90/84.
Hundreds of hours tutoring & a now-legendary GAMSAT Reddit post later, she saw a need for GAMSAT prep resources that are strategic, reasoning based, empowering, & affordable.
So, No Bullshit GAMSAT was born: a way to make cheap problem-solving GAMSAT strategy accessible to as many students as possible. Oh, and to pressure the GAMSAT market to be more ethical and values-driven along the way!
Today, over 700 students have used No Bullshit GAMSAT, and Lexi’s proud of the difference No Bullshit makes every day.
No-Nonsense. Ethical. Empowering. Accessible.
No-Nonsense. Ethical. Empowering. Accessible.
We believe that traditional prep companies have had a hold over the GAMSAT industry for far too long.
The GAMSAT prep industry has historically made profit by exploiting students’ anxieties, fears, and goals.
Consistently, they over-promise and under-deliver, perpetuating class divisions within medicine by using flashy marketing tactics to sell outdated and disempowering courses for exorbitant prices; all without actually teaching the skills the exam assesses.
Enough is enough.
We believe that you deserve better.
We believe that it’s time for change.
Our GAMSAT Philosophy
We believe that every student is capable of reaching their GAMSAT goals.
We believe that the GAMSAT is a test of your ability to apply various critical thinking skills and perform under pressure.
We believe that GAMSAT success takes hard work, a strategic plan, an empowered mindset, and a problem-solving approach.
We believe that the best way to prepare is via strategic use of practice questions, reflection, evaluation, and skill-based drills.
We love our values
You can tell a lot about a business by their values. Our commitment to our values makes us very unique in the GAMSAT world.
-
Above all, our mission is to support GAMSAT students by replacing the exploitative prep company industry with an ethical alternative.

Operate for and with purpose.
Operate with authenticity and integrity.

We promise to never:
Make false promises or flashy manipulative claims.
Advertise using student scores, because your achievements are yours alone.

-
When we’re all on wonderfully different GAMSAT paths, the only constant is that one size does not fit all. We believe that your GAMSAT journey deserves better than generic advice, and should be shaped by your unique life and goals.
We promise to always:
Provide resources that make the GAMSAT achievable for all students, from all backgrounds.
Provide options to personalise our advice to your journey.
Provide free support to all students to help tweak, scaffold, and support from the sidelines.
-
We won’t rest until the fear-based, gimmicky, profit-driven GAMSAT industry is replaced by an authentic and kind approach. We believe that learning to approach the GAMSAT with self-sufficient resilience instead of anxious confusion gifts you success and sustainability, both for the GAMSAT and beyond.
We promise to always:
Create resources that teach you to think critically in a GAMSAT context, so you’re empowered for any question that comes your way
Use validated pedagogical and neuropsychological methods to empower you to study skillfully.
Integrate principles of positive psychology, cognitive awareness, and reflective practice to help you unpack the origins of your study, learning, and motivational challenges.
Discuss the GAMSAT in pragmatic, realistic, and positive terms.
-
It’s our name & it’s our game.
Our most important goal is to make a difference to your GAMSAT journey via effective resources that have all of the good stuff, and none of the frills or f*cking around.
This means building your skills by creating frameworks and strategies that develop your ability to problem solve.
We promise to always:
Provide resources that develop your critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Teach study strategies that are smart, efficient, and effective.
Synthesise the best GAMSAT advice into frameworks that cut the crap.
Be honest about the hard work you’ll need to put in, and the satisfaction you’ll feel when you do.
& we live by our values.
Making our mission meaningful is one way we operate with purpose.
We donate 5% of all profits to charity organisation 20Talk, who help young adults integrate relatable mental health tools and skills into their lives.
