Testimonials
The LSMU PreMed course I participated in was an excellent way to get to know some of the students and teachers. Overall, the course helped me prepare in basic Chemistry and Biology. The teachers were excellent in helping with problems and explaining more complex tasks. I thoroughly enjoyed the duration of the course due to the friendly nature and passionate work ethic of the teachers.
Jalin from New Zealand:
So the PreMed course was great. I liked how both the teachers had quizzes. I liked how in Biology we got tested after going through the presentations. I loved in Chemistry that in the middle of the presentations the teacher asked what she just explained. Made it clearer what we were going through. I appreciated that all the materials was there for us to read on our own. I liked the calendar. Helped me keep track of my progress and how much was left. Overall very satisfied with the course.
Shad from Sweden
Very interesting and informative course. The Lecturers were extremely helpful and friendly. Would 100% recommend! I had so much fun on PreMed online class and have learnt so many new things that have only encouraged me to be a doctor even more than before. Thank you to everyone!
Amare from Sweden
I liked the course because it was useful to learn more deeply about organic chemistry, as well as I could better understand biology.
I recommend the course indeed because we can prepare better to the final PreMed exam. I liked a lot the teachers, they are very helpful and attentive, as well as the people who are behind the course, who are helping a lot the students after the final PreMed exam.
To sum up I’d definitely recommend this PreMed course at LSMU.
Maksim from Portugal
The LSMU, 2-month PreMed course was useful, fun and the perfect way to get to know prospective students and LSMU faculty. The course information was wonderfully relayed by the professors - with a perfect mixture of the relative content and its connections to practical medicine. I especially appreciated how much practice we got along the way with small quizzes and tests that solidified our understanding of the content. I would recommend this course for anyone who simply wants to boost their understanding of the sciences before heading to medical school.
Dianca from Dominica
First, some feedback to the PreMed course. The teaching was excellent – the professors are great at getting the best out of people, they were always on hand to provide feedback and help with questions if asked, and I think that they are a real asset. Distance learning and the Moodle platform worked well together, and I particularly enjoyed the use of interactive resources. I enjoyed preparing and giving presentations and I thought that aspect of the biology module worked particularly well. Overall, the pre-medicine course met my aims, which was to refresh my knowledge of biology and chemistry in preparation for further study. I would thoroughly recommend it to other students.
