About Anish

I’m Anish, a 20-year-old Medicine student at UCD who scored in the 97th percentile on the HPAT—a test I know can feel overwhelming without the right approach. Having navigated the Leaving Cert (625 points) and the HPAT relatively recently, I totally get the pressure you’re under. But here’s the good news: the HPAT is learnable, and with the right strategies, you can dramatically boost your score. Why my approach works: Breakdown of each section: I’ll teach you how to tackle Logical Reasoning, Problem Solving, and Interpersonal Understanding efficiently—no vague advice, just actionable tactics. Time management hacks: The HPAT is a race against the clock. I’ll share the exact timing strategies I used to stay calm and avoid panic-guessing. Pattern recognition: Over 35 students tutored (all levels!), I’ve pinpointed the recurring "trap" questions and how to outsmart them. Flexibility: No rigid lesson plans—we’ll focus on your weak spots, whether it’s abstract reasoning or decoding tricky interpersonal scenarios. My background: 96th percentile HPAT scorer (2023) Former Kumon Math/English student (Level M math by 15)—sharpened my analytical skills early! 4th year Medicine student at UCD 625 points in the Leaving Cert How it works: 1 - Free trial session: Let’s diagnose your strengths/weaknesses and map out a plan. 2 - Stress-free grind: Sessions are chill, interactive, and tailored to your pace. 3 - Crush the test: By test day, you’ll walk in with confidence. Shoot me a message, and let’s get you HPAT-ready!

About the lesson

At the heart of my HPAT teaching is a dual focus on conceptual mastery and tactical execution. The HPAT isn’t just about raw intelligence—it’s a test of how you think. My approach ensures you don’t just practice questions blindly, but internalize the underlying patterns that recur across all three sections (Logical Reasoning, Problem Solving, and Interpersonal Understanding).

1. Deconstructing the HPAT Mindset

Logical Reasoning: Teach you to spot distractors and isolate core arguments (not just "read faster").
Problem Solving: Break down abstract puzzles into familiar steps (e.g., spatial reasoning shortcuts).
Interpersonal Understanding: Translate vague scenarios into clear behavioral principles (e.g., conflict resolution frameworks).

This shifts your focus from "What’s the answer?" to "Why is this the answer?"—a critical leap for scoring in high percentiles.

2. Active, Adaptive Application

Once the "click" happens, we drill into exam-condition simulations with past HPAT questions and custom-designed challenges. But here’s the difference:
Every question is a teaching tool. We analyze traps, time sinks, and recurring themes (e.g., how the HPAT disguises correct answers in Section 1).
Flexible pacing: If you’re acing abstract logic but struggle with data interpretation, we rebalance immediately. No rigid syllabus—just targeted growth.

3. Progress Through Precision

Trackable metrics: Speed, accuracy, and confidence per question type (e.g., "You’ve cut inference errors by 40% in 3 weeks").
Feedback loops: Transparent breakdowns of mock test results, highlighting exactly where to refine (e.g., "Prioritize graph questions over verbal logic for now").

Why Does This Work for the HPAT?

Medical schools want problem-solvers, not memorizers. My method mirrors this by training you to:

Adapt under pressure (like the real 2.5-hour sprint).
Trust systematic approaches over gut feelings.
Turn confusion into strategy—because the HPAT rewards calm critical thinking, not panic.

In essence, success stems from merging understanding with disciplined practice—a balance that transforms uncertainty into mastery. Let’s work together to build that foundation, one concept at a time.

Anish is an amazing tutor. He effortlessly breaks down complex concepts into easily understandable segments by the use of pure logic and simple analogies. Every class is centred on the needs of the student, if I wanted a crash course on a certain concept before a class test, that's what the lesson would be on instead of the typical exam paper preparation for instance. I was very poor at maths and struggled even in my grinds classes however Anish helped me strengthen my understand of the fundamentals of maths to ensure I had a strong foundations to build upon. He is very amiable and encouraging which is nice when you're stressed for big upcoming exams. I would recommend Anish for any student of any level
