Your MCAT or GAMSAT results are a critical component of the Duke-NUS Medical School’s admissions process. Duke-NUS accepts both MCAT & GAMSAT and there is absolutely no added advantage in taking one test over the other. One thing’s for sure, you should definitely start planning to sit for either of these tests at least a year before you intend to apply to medical school. This gives you enough time to prepare for the other components of your application.
To help you decide on which test to take, here are the two major differences that you should take note of before you kick-start your test preparation.
MCAT scores are valid for 4 years while GAMSAT scores are valid for 2 years
The MCAT is held more frequently throughout the year compared to the GAMSAT
MCAT (few test dates a month): January, March, April, May, June, July, August, September
GAMSAT (only twice a year): March & September
