Who
are we?
MedEntry HPAT Preparation is an organisation committed to helping students enter health science courses such as medicine. We are a team of academics, doctors, health science students and professionals with experience and expertise in test development, measurement and analysis. We have used our collective knowledge of entrance procedures (such as the HPAT) and the health profession to create a comprehensive program. This program has been remarkably successful in helping students achieve their goals.
Why choose us?
MedEntry is the only HPAT preparation institution with an extensive and unparalleled bank of questions, resources and techniques developed over a period of over thirty years. We have over 10,000 questions, over 1,000 pages of preparation materials, thousands of forum discussions and more accessible via our easy to use Learning Management System (included in all of our packages).
MedEntry has been training students for tests identical to the HPAT for far longer than any other preparation program. We are the most trusted and reputable organisation training for the HPAT.
MedEntry specialises in HPAT preparation (it's the only thing we do!). We can therefore provide you with the most up-to-date, focussed and quality preparation. Many grind schools offer HPAT preparation as an 'additional extra' whereas MedEntry is focussed entirely on ensuring you succeed in this very important exam.
MedEntry is the only institution which runs courses in all major cities in Ireland. We also run courses throughout Australia and New Zealand.
The HPAT workshops are run by Dr Edward Boyapati, an academic with over thirty years of experience teaching in Australian universities. He has published several articles on educational research and has delivered numerous papers/keynote addresses at several International Teaching and Learning Conferences. He has received numerous awards for excellence in teaching. Dr Boyapati has been training students for tests such as the HPAT for over two decades. Among his successful students include his own children, both of whom were offered places in all medical schools and held Scholarships for Excellence to study Medicine, which are awarded to the best incoming student each year.
We are the only HPAT preparation course run by academics, doctors and professionals. We have experience and expertise in test design, development and analysis.
MedEntry HPAT Prep is an initiative which was made possible as a result of generous support from The Foundation for Young Australians.

| We
have been given a grant by The Foundation to enable us
to offer our program. The aim is to enhance youth participation
and create opportunities for the development of young
people. Specifically the venture aims to help
young people keen to pursue a career in the health sciences,
especially those who are traditionally under-represented. |
Our Practice Exams are considered the best by far among HPAT preparation courses. This is because they are comprehensively and meticulously researched and written by experts with a thorough knowledge of the real HPAT (see item under News). They are updated regularly to reflect changes that occur in HPAT. Our resource materials include thousands of questions for you to practice on. Unlike other HPAT preparation courses, all of MedEntry's questions come with fully worked solutions.

Our approach is holistic. We realise that entering health science courses is not simply
a matter of sitting the HPAT.
We are with you every step of the way. MedEntry HPAT Prep "imparts the learning skills that students take with
them for life" and "provide[s] focused, quality
