Dear Dr Rahman and all of the team
Just wanted to put in writing my thanks for your support through the process of getting into GP VTS in 2008, I can confidently say that it definitely made a difference to my performance at all stages of the process. Having had some difficulties with lost paperwork (as previously discussed with you) I have been successful in getting a place at my first choice deanery, and it even looks like I may get the geographical location I'd hoped for as well. Thanks for all of your courses and advice to date, i look forward to coming onto your MRCGP courses in the future
kindest regards

Dear Sir/ Madam,
I write to inform you of my success through your course and an eventual placement in the Hereford region of West Midlands. Yes the competition was tough, as it was last year, but I believe that this years' was based upon a more fair and thorough evaluation system. Your course was very useful and a major moral booster. I only wish that there were more services available to guide young doctors as sincerely as you do
I would like to thank you once again
Yours Sincerely,
Dr. M. K (West Midlands Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman et al.
I just wanted to let you know that I was successful in my stage 3 assessment and have just accepted an ST1 Post in London. Please accept my sincere thanks for all the help that you and the team gave me. Your stage 3 preparation courses were superb and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to other doctors. Once again, thank you.

Dear Salina
Just to let you know that I passed the CSA. Could you please pass on my gratitute to everybody involved with the course - I'm sure it had a large part to play in my ultimate success. I have reccomended it to my colleagues on the VTS who have enquired as to the best way to prepare for the exam.
Thanks once again. All the best.

Dear Dr Rahman,
I would like to inform you that I have been offered a place on the 2008 GP training
programme in Scotland. I must commend you and thank you for the excellent courses you run. I attended the Stage 2 preparation course in Cardiff (27 October 2007) and later, the Stage 3 preparation course in Birmingham (15 March 2008). Your presentation style and insight into the selection process is remarkable. On your courses, the negative attitudes that have caused failure for so many in the past
were highlighted and the interactive sessions (on the Stage 3 course) helped to get everyone (especially me) very well prepared for the competition for places. Well done to you and your team, and keep up the good work

Dear Emedica staff,
I just wanted to let you know that i was successful in my GP application and i am starting a 3 year GP VTS in KSS in August. Thank you all so much for the help and advice you provided on the Emedica stage 3 course. I have no doubts whatsoever that your course helped me in securing this rotation. The practice we were able to do on the course and the detail about the interview process which you went through made the assessment centre much less scary and definitely made me feel much more prepared about what to expect on the day. I would highly recommend the course and Emedica to colleagues who are planning on applying for GP VTS in the future. It was obvious by the care and attention that had been put in to the course that all of you really were committed to our future.
Thanks again.
L I (KSS Deanery 2008)
Many many thanks to the team of emedica, esp Dr Rahman for his help and support. I have been offered ST1 in GP training from east of England (my 1st choice deanery). Just to let you know that I was really helped by your excellent course.
A K (East of England Deanery 2008)
Thank you very much. I have passed the viva. Your course made a huge difference and most crucially helped me gain an insight into precisely what the viva is about. What I found most impressive, compared to other courses, was:
- the way Dr Mahibur fielded impromptu questions with ease. He proposed answers for all questions in a clear structured, simple understandable manner which was easy to grasp and followed a consistent pattern.
-the proposed frameworks for answers and how to apply them in practice.
-directed continuous viva chaired by Dr Mahibur with feedback from him allowed a lot of learning.
-good handouts linked to the questions being asked.

Dear Salina / Dr Rahman
I would like you to share my joy receiving the GPST offer in my 1st choice deanery & scheme. I went to your Stage 1-4 course in Cardiff and used your online courses for Stages 2 and 3 - these were all very useful . Many thanks also for the email up-dates. Keep up the good work, may Allah bless you both.
Kind regards

Dear Dr Rahman
Just to let you know I came to your gp entry course in September and then the stage 3 course in march. I got band 4 in both exam papers and an interview at my first choice deanery-oxford. I got an offer for my first choice trust in the deanery. I'm really pleased. I found your courses very helpful. I look forward to attending other courses run by emedica in the future.
Thanks again
S V (Oxford Deanery 2008)
Dear Emedica Thank you is probably the best and most simple word I can find. I have been offered a post and would like to shake your hand and say thank you
R S (West Midlands Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman, Salina and Andre,
Got my first choice - been accepted for GP training in the Mersey Deanery!!
Just want to say a very big thank you. I couldn't have done it without attending the emedica course. I found the group discussion scenarios the most helpful because it meant that on the day that station didn't seem as unfamiliar or as daunting as it could have been had I not attended the stage 3 course. Keep up the good work I will be definately recommending the course for my friends in the year below.
Many kind regards
I R (Mersey Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr. Rahman,
I write to inform you that I have been offered a 3-year GP ST programme, at my first choice deanery viz. Wales. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to attend/subscribe to your Emedica courses, and I thank you for your input into the same
.Finally, please convey my regards and appreciation to Ms. Begum and the rest of the Emedica team.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. L P. (Wales Deanery 2008)
Hello there,
I attended your course on February 21st and found it very useful and helpful. I have been successful in achieving a place on the N Ireland GP VTS - my first choice and will definitely be recommending this course to anyone applying next year.
Thanks again, J (Northern Ireland Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman
Just wanted to say a massive thank you to yourself and the team. I have gotten onto the Yorkshire GPVTS ST1, which was my 1st choice. Your on line information and advice, as well as the stage 3 course were excellent and I gained so much from it all. I would recommend these to anyone preparing for the GPVTS selection. Most of all, I think you have all been very supportive also via your email advice before assessments, it was much appreciated!!! Once again, a massive thank you for all your help!
J B (Yorkshire Deanery 2008)
Thanks a lot. The course I attended was very helpful for the stage 3 selection. I have been offered a 3 year GP rotation in my first choice deanery

Hi,
I attended one of your courses back in February. This is just to let you know that I have been offered a 3-year GP ST rotation on the Milton Keynes Scheme (Oxford Deanery). Many thanks for all your help,
Kind Regards,

To all at Emedica
I wanted to email to let you know that I got GPST1, my first choice scheme in my number one deanery. I found your stage 3 course such a help and will be recommending it to those applying next year.
Thanks again
J E (Northern Ireland deanery 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman
I just wanted to let the Emedica team know that I was successful in gaining a place on a three-year GP ST1 training scheme (Severn Deanery). Not only that, but my 8th of 101 ranked choices! Getting a last minute - actually a cancellation - place on your Emedica course on Sunday 24th of February in Birmingham was probably the best thing that could have happened. And money well spent. I would never have been prepared for the Stage 3 Selection Centre otherwise.
For me, what the course gave me was a warning shot! I went into the selection centre at least knowing broadly what was coming up. I knew the type of scenarios which might occur, the basic format of the selection process as a whole. That took away much of the fear of the process for me.
With warmest wishes
H (Severn Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman and the Emedica Team,
I attended your excellent 'Getting into GP training' course in Birmingham prior to applying for a GP training rotation within the Eastern deanery. I have just been informed that I have been successful in getting a place on my first choice training scheme in Essex, within the Eastern Deanery, to commence in August 2008. I am absolutely over the moon and wanted to thank you for the part you played in helping me to prepare properly for the assessments. I feel now that I have a future to look forward to with new challenges ahead, much closer to family and friends.
Kind regards,
A H (Eastern Deanery 2008)

Dear Emedica
I am writing to say I GOT A JOB! I got a training post in my first choice deanery, at my first choice hospital and couldn't be happier. Thank you so much for all the help and advice - it made the whole process feel "manageable" and a lot less scary.
A H (GP ST1 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman, Salina Begum and the Emedica team,
I am pleased to inform you that Alhamdullilah I got a ST1 GP post in Eastern deanery. Thanks for the conducting an excellent course. It was very well organised and helpful course.
Take Care ,

Dear Dr Rahman and team
I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone for all their help. Both myself and Dr xxx have been offered east midlands deanery which was our first choice.
Z A (East Midlands Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr Rahman and the Emedica team,
Hope you are all well. Just wanted to let you know I secured a GPST post for August 2008 in the Oxford Deanery, Alhamdulillah! I'm really pleased and relieved! I attended 2 of your courses and I must say they definitely played a great part in my success (especially the Stage 3 course). I would like to say a BIG thank you to Dr Rahman and the rest of the emedica team for all your help and support throughout the application process - couldn't have done it without you!
Kind Regards,
N (Oxford Deanery 2008)
I attended a stage 3 course and revised online for the stage 2. Now I have a GP specialty training job in Doncaster! Thank you so much. I found the online revision really helpful, easy to use, and very relevant. The paper 2 questions were essential practice for the real exam. The stage 3 course was great as well. It was good to practice the scenarios and find out about how you are marked. It gave me so much more confidence on the day.
Thanks again,
A H (Yorkshire Deanery 2008)
Dear Dr. Rahman,
Just to let you know that I secured my first choice deanery: Northern for GP training. Your course was not only informative but fun and highly applicable to the actual stage 3 assessment. I've recommended it to all prospective GP trainees. Thank you again!!
