Hi Alan & Khush,

You’ll be happy to know that, at long last, I finally successfully passed my AMC Clinical Exam on February 17, 2022. I had attended the 8-week course in person back in 2018 and had since had 2 unsuccessful attempts at passing the examination. This time around, I attended the 7-day course in February 2022. I also attempted 2 trial examinations prior to my test on Feb 17.

While the course was extremely helpful, the trial exams, in particular, were a great source of help and the feedback I received from the examiners helped shape my strategy for the exam.

I am grateful to every one of you for aiding me through this process.

Kind regards,

Hi Alan and Khush,

I took your course at the end of 2021 and I am very happy to inform you that I passed my clinical exam held on the 2nd of March 2022. Your trial exam was very helpful and at that time I passed 15/16 stations.

My system got frozen in the middle of my exam and I didn’t know what to do, I was panicking, so I called Alan Robert’s office and Khush suggested I turn off my computer and rejoin. I did so and luckily I got to enter the exam room again, thank you so much Khush for this suggestion.

Thank you so much to all the teachers, especially Dr Amir and Dr Anitha.

Kind Regards

Hello Sir,

I would like to inform you that I took dr deep’s PESCI ACCRM preparation course and with her guidance and support, I passed this interview in my first go in just 3 months of preparation. She is a very dedicated person and I completely owe this success to her. Her understanding of ACCRM PESCI and concepts to crack this interview is so appropriate. she not only helps during the course but also till you pass the exam with her consistent updates about topics and changes. Her group plays key importance in preparation and highly recommend her course to everyone who wanted to pass this exam.

Thank you

Hello Alan and Kush,

Hope you’re doing well.

I’m happy to inform you that I have cleared my AMC step 1 in the first go held in February 2022.

I have taken coaching twice for step 1. By repeating the free course (2nd time). I felt the 2nd time coaching was very useful to

Buildup my confidence levels. The 1st time coaching gave me just an idea about the topics. But I was enlightened by the 2nd time coaching, and felt it was the best thought I have got.

Dr Cintia is such a gem with her lots of patience and she is such a hard-working woman I have seen.

Dr Deep with her bullet points which were very useful for my prep.

Finally, Dr Rashid though his classes were very few… his teaching has brought me some interest in radiology. Such a great teacher he was.

Thanks a lot for the support for the whole arimgsas team. I would suggest any of my friends take coaching at this institute.

Thanks.

Regards,

Hi Alan,

In a few days, my MCQ preparation course will finish and my exam will be on the 11 of May. I m writing to say thank you for putting this wonderful MCQ course. It was intense and very very helpful. I wish to pass so I can join the second training for the practical exam at ARIMGSAS.

THANK YOU again.

Best regards.

Hi Alan Roberts,

I am Dr Chon*** a student of the March 2019 batch. Hope you are doing well. I passed the clinical exam via zoom on 25 August 2021. It was my second attempt though. I really appreciated the clinical course run by all staff and also an online formal trial clinical exam which helped me a lot during my second attempt. I hope I can go to your place to do some workshops soon. Thank you so much for encouraging and supporting me to fulfil my dream and hope to see u soon in Australia.

Kind regards,

Dear Alan,

It has been some time since I wrote to you.

I did the 10-week Clinical course in 2017 with ARIMGSAS. It was definitely the best decision I made. I passed my clinical exams first go in October 2017. You also gave me many opportunities for Observership in Melbourne clinics to improve my understanding of the Australian GP and medical system. This has been very helpful in my journey. Since then I have moved back to Adelaide.

I have now been working in AU for 3.5 years and am happy to say I have attained my FRACGP in Feb 2022! It’s been through a lot of hard work and persistence but the ARIMGSAS course I had done in 2017 has given me a good foundation to build on for the exams.

Just wanted to say thank you. I have encouraged many others on this journey to consider your courses. The tutors at ARIMGSAS have been encouraging and knowledgeable. We all could use some help on our journey in AU.

Warm regards.

Dear Khush and Alan,

Thank you very much for the feedback, I just wanted to say that the way to perform the online Mock test is really good, and I could tell that all the examiners were really well prepared and gave constructive feedback. I would recommend your exam and course for sure. All the best.

Hello
This is doctor N***
I am happy to share that i have passed clinical exam on 14 September and would like to thanks. I appeared in Alan trial mock test that boost up my confidence level after passing 13 stations thats helped me in actual exam
Thanks to the Alan academy

Hi Alan,

I’ve recently noticed that a lot of doctors are sharing their good experiences with your institution.

I still remember the very first time I talked to you, and told you about how I was surprised and affected by new regulations from AHPRA, and how distressed I was. I literally had nothing, not enough work experience for my registration application, not enough money to survive, not even a friend to talk to.

I was talking about the possible pathways which I was not sure whether it’s going to work or not, but out of a sudden you asked me if I like to teach in PESCI workshops.

You don’t really know how much I meant to me; in fact I had some hope to fight for.

My limited registration was approved that year, and I have been working as a GP since then. I achieved my fellowship with RACGP and now I’ve got heaps of friends and I’m so thankful for that. I met some of them at PESCI workshop actually.

Just want to say thank you so much for all you and your team have done for IMGs. Your kindness and humanity is phenomenal!

At the end just want to share a huge lesson which I learned throughout the challenging journey with all IMGs who are struggling at the moment; to be successful and happy you only need to believe in yourself and treat yourself as if you are the best person you’ve ever known!

Hi Alan,

Thanks a lot for the reassurance. I have learnt a lot during the course, it has definitely played a major role in shaping my career as an international medical graduate. I’m extremely humbled to see all the amazing tutors in arimgsas. I have personally learnt a lot from each one of them.

Will let you know once I book the date for the exam. I’m planning to give it by October/November.

If possible, I’m also interested in doing the 7 day clinical course right before my exam.

Please feel free to suggest anything that you think will benefit me in the long run.

Regards,

Dr. J*** E***

Alan,

I just wanted to share these news to you.

I was in May-July 8 weeks clinical exam batch in 2019. It takes me a while to reach the point. I am now working as a GP in rural Victoria. (supposed to commence next week).

Thanks for offering me basic ideas about Australian health system and wonderful courses and trial exams in ARIMGSAS.

Although I don’t think just taking courses is enough, but those courses are the basic, and good introduction to the system.

Best regards,

Dr L*** (IMG from China)

Hi Mr Alan. Hope you are having a good time. I have just got the call to join the hospital on 24th May. It has been my pleasure to have you by my side. Thank you so much for your support. I will never forget that I was in such great hands when I thought I was lost. Thank you again Mr Alan.

I’m writing to you to let you know that I have successfully passed the AMC Clinical Examination on the 27th of February 2020.
I’d love to come and see you in person, but due to the coronavirus situation, I’m writing this email instead.
I would like to thank you for your help and assistance throughout my AMC journey.
It was not easy, but I’m able to get here thanks to the help and support of all the tutors and staffs in ARIMGSAS as well.
I live in Melbourne, so if there’s any available position for tutoring the clinical class, or if you need examiners for the formal trial exam, I’ll be happy to help.

Thank you for help again :)

Hello Alan,

To start with i want to thank you for your courses , i took both mcq online and clinicals 10week in ARIMGSAS. you made incredible difference for me through different tutors and wonderful materials.

Also i have been looking for PESCI course, which can help me prepare.

{ i took course with Dr.M*** F***, i felt its a trap because of publicity. each batch has 20-30 students with F***. i did not benefit from it as much i did benefit from you. i havent been provided any good slides. was costly than yours. rip off for me. }

I see that arimgsas Pesci course is not having good publicity as the other has. i would suggest that you publisize it more so many will know.

Dr.K*** introduction session today was incredibly helpful in comparison to that i already had. i wish you would have advertised it more in different places so many like can benefit. our materials are like Bible. i called few times before for pesci but they waited student to pool up. which was drawback. i hope you will do more publicity in future.

Thank You

Regards

I will let the team inform of my MCQ booking, when I do one.

Hello Alan…

Good evening…  Hope you and you’re family is doing good fine ?

It’s been a great week for me, I received my registration from AHPRA and also my hospital in Canberra is very supportive,  they sent me a travel exemption letter to help me travel back to Australia as soon as I can.

Working on my visa application now.

I also communicated with the accounts department regarding the referral fee.  Thank you Alan..

Alan, since I have a lot of time on hand and also I would love to be associated with ARIMGSAS for all that it’s given me,  is it possible for me to teach a few sessions with the clinical batch?

Also I don’t mind helping the candidates for interview prep too,  have attended a bunchful and luckily had a lot of options to choose from, for my current job.

It’s absolutely no pressure,  just incase you feel I can fit in somewhere I would love to teach the clinical batches.

Dear Alan,

Thank you very much for your ongoing support and dedication provided for IMG community in Australia. We truly appreciate it.

I am writing also to thank Dr Deep Kaur who is our tutor for online PESCI course 5 to 9 Aug. I have done courses over a couple of years to pass my AMC clinical and English. So, I have had a few tutors. However, Dr Deep is one of the most caring, dedicated and hard-working. She is also so knowledgeable and professional. But what I love most about her is that she genuinely cares for us, for all of us. It is only the 4th day we are gaving session with her, but I feel I have learnt and I also feel like she is an old friend taking my hand guiding me through this way.

Thank you so much for such a great course. And a big thank for supporting IMGs.

Kind regards

Hi Alan.
Just wanted to give my feedback regarding the trial review yesterday(30-Jul-2020).
I think it was fantastic, Dr Kuldeep was able to review all the questions, which I thought would be impossible, and discuss the main topics, including differentials, and keep a good interaction with us. I like her approach; it’d be great to have more lectures with her.
It’d be great to have the subjects added to our calendar so I can organise the content that I missed from the previous batch and make sure I will have those contents in the next weeks. I imagine the schedule will be a bit different. Finally, linking the calendar with the link to the slides will be very helpful as sometimes we get a bit lost trying to find the content on the slides.
Kind regards,
T*** T***

Dear Alan

I just want to thank you for the opportunity you have given me in ARIMGSAS, I am very grateful. I apologise for not letting you know earlier about me moving to Rockhampton as it was on short notice, as AHPRA wanted signed documents for in-person approval from a registered practitioner in Rockhampton.

Hopefully will get to catch up once I am in Melbourne.

Thank you

Kind Regards

I was planing on attending the 10 week clinical preparation course in Melbourne,however due to the travel restrictions imposed due to the corona virus situation i was not able to travel to Australia. The team at ARIMGSAS was very helpful and gave me the option of following the 10 week course online. The 10 week online course is just AMAZING, i was skeptical in the beginning,but after attending class for a couple of days i realised how good it was.
Pros– The tutors are great and they always involve you in the class, whether it may be in role plays or performing examinations. If you have doubts on what is been taught,no worries just ask the tutors and they will explain it.Even though its an online course,its a very interactive experience.
You can attend the course from the comfort of your own home.
Time spent and money spent on travelling-zero ,so more time for you to study.
As for physical examinations,the tutors make sure you see and understand what is been done clearly.
In conclusion this course is a amazing alternative if you are in a similar situation as i’m in and is unable to attend the course in person.
Cheers!

I did both AMC MCQ AND CLINICALS under ARIMGSAS.

No doubt the course is beneficial not only for the exam point of view but also understanding Australia Health Care system.

I did my clinical exam on 11/07/19 , and i passed .Did the course in april and finished on 30th June so that gave me 10 days to prepare by myself and no doubt the course gave me alot of ideas on how to tackle and answer the questions given.

Proud to have been under the guidance of Alan and his team..

Once again thank you Alan will come down and see you guys soon in person.

Dear Alan,

I have started working two weeks ago and I love it, so I have been thinking of writing to you. This is a long due thank you email!
Thank you for all the amazing courses you hosted without which I wouldn’t have made it in my exams. Thank you for supporting me after my exam by giving me work as a teacher which I loved! And for being an amazing referee!
Thank you for everything! I’ll forever be grateful to you and everyone at ARIGMSAS!
Lots of love and success your way!
Regards,

Dear Dr Alan,

Dear Alan,

Dear Alan,

I have cleared the AMC clinical on the 25th of October. This was my first attempt.I had earlier done the online class in July and followed up with the face to face course in Perth for the Physical Examination and a few recall classes.Thanks for all your help Alan. Special thanks to Magdy, Mohammed Aissa, Faryal, Nikita and Bipin…

Thank you once again.

Sent Thank  you  for  your  unwavering  support  and  a  pillar  of  encouragement  Alan Roberts throughout  the  years!  Not  only  to  J*** but  to  me  as  well  from  reviewing  for  AMC  MCQ  until  getting  a  job.  Thank  you  for  helping  so  many  IMGs  like  us.  All  the  very  best  and  more success  stories  in  the  future.

I am writing to thank ARIMGSAS to organize this 5-week online course for AMCQ exam.

I believe to cover all topics of medicine in such a short time and in such a beneficial way is really hard and should be appreciated. All our tutors; Dr. Mohamed, Dr. Cintia, and Dr. Oksana are very valuable and try to help us sincerely. This course has been very educatory for me to adapt Australian medical system.

Moreover, I want to thank you also for your organization and last-minute arrangements to make us more comfortable and confident for the exam. It was important to us.

I would like to convey that I owe Dr Oksana a debt of gratitude and want to thank Dr. Oksana for her valuable lessons as well as Dr. Cintia and Dr. Mohamed.

Once again Thank you in advance Alan Roberts and his team.

Kind Regards,

Hi Alan!! How are you? I hope everything is going well on your end. Anyhow, I’m happy to let you know that I passed my exam on my first take last 4th of October and I am from the 5 week course in Sydney. I want to thank you and your group for making this possible.  In line with this, I’d like to inquire about becoming an online tutor for ARIMGSAS. Thank you!

All the best,

From my point of view, I think it is one of the best professional medical courses, in terms of preparation for the exam, and all the related targets for international medical doctors.

I suggest  and encourage all international medical doctors who want to enter and continue their medical journey in an Australian medical system, take part in this course, or the online MCQ course, and the related courses to the ARIMGSAS institute, as I have had a chance to take part in the workshop related to the Clinical courses too.

The teachers are very expert and able to manage and guide the students in a relaxing environment. Their friendly and professional manners lead the students to achieve their aims. You can build a long relationship with the teachers in terms of answering your possible questions in the future. In line with this, you have the chance of reading and providing the main important medical books and related journals within the institute.

The positive, responsible and sympathetic attitude of Alan Roberts and his all staff, gives you the chance of getting more familiar with Australian medical systems, and remove all the ambiguous aspect of knowing a new medical system.

After attending your course, you have the great chance of participate in the same course again until you hit your medical targets. The expert, professional, and academic staff motivate you to communicate with the doctors within, which definitely you can make new friends, and outside of the institute. The unbelievable chance of attending the workshops and observer-ship courses outside in several clinics could be an important and vital factor that increases your strength and confidence.

Whole team feel responsible and caring towards meeting their students needs , they have generously provided comfortable space, food and drink to study, and for food and drinking.

I believe you enjoy your journey with the institute and you will have an unforgettable moments.

Thank you very much,

Dr S*** S***

Dear Alan,

As you know I and my wife both have currently passed our AMC clinical examinations successfully in August. I pride myself to be one of the student in ARIMGSAS who passed 13 out of 14 stations in the AMC clinical examination in my first attempt. I would be very happy if I could have such an opportunity to share my experience as well as my knowledge to the future candidates at the clinical courses in ARIMGSAS, I would appreciate if you could let me to be one of the member of your valuable department in ARIMGSAS.

Yours sincerely,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the tutors and administration staff together with Alan for helping me with my preparation for pesci. The teaching i got ensured a good outcome for my PESCI. I’m happy to say i passed  pesci on the first attempt.You guys also assisted me in my AMC Cllinical examination preparation which i passed in June .

Regards

Dear Alan,

I want to thank Arimgsas once again, for helping me in my journey. I prepared for three months for both my exams, and it would not have 

possible to pass both exams in such a short period of time without Arimgsas. 

This is Dr. M*** K*** J*** S***. It gives me immense joy to write this mail to you. With Gods grace, I have passed my AMC clinical

exam on the 5th of September,2019 in my first attempt with 10/14 stations. I have attended the 7day course at Arimgsas, that commenced from July 16,

2019. I am deeply indebted to Arimgsas, as I did my preparatory courses for both AMCQ and the AMC clinical exam here. I was able to pass both exams

my first attempt, thanks to Arimgsas. During my 7day course, I could not pass the formal trial exam, but I was able to build on my weaknesses soon after the

course before my exam.

I live in Sydney at the moment, and I am unable to come visit you at Arimgsas and thank you in person. I am applying for jobs in New South

Wales and I would be more than grateful if you could be one of my referees. I am also interested in teaching, and  I would be happy to teach at the Sydney

branch of Arimgsas if I was offered a position. I would like to talk to you about this in detail over a phone call, maybe. I would appreciate it if you could let me

know of some convenient time, when I can call your office.

Thanks,

Magdalene John Samuel.

I have completed my MCQ online course . All the tutors were so professional. I want to mention that Dr. M*** S*** was so knowledgeable.

She had great attitude to the students.

One of the most important skills I would like to mention is her attention to details and her approach to explain the topics.

She covered all the relevant topics and simplify  the complex issues so it is easy to understand.

Definitely, I would recommend the course .

First i would like to thank Alan and his team.

Once again thank you Alan will come down and see you guys soon in person.

Dear Mr Alan and all ARIMGSAS staff,

Thank you very much for your continued help that enabled me successfully complete all the AMC exams. Passing my PESCI recently, I am very glad to join the Australian healthcare system as a general practitioner.

I am very grateful to the unreserved support I got from ARIMGSAS team including the tutors who know the secrets of success, the well-trained role players, admin staff who understand and support the needs of IMGs, and above all the vibrant and envisioned leader, Mr Alan. Mr Alan is very committed to support and guide fellow IMGs towards success!

The team at the ARIMGSAS supports qualified IMGs to be certified and join the Australian healthcare workforce. This, I strongly believe, is a huge contribution to both the IMGs and the Australian healthcare system.

Keep up the good work that undoubtedly will have a positive impact the public at large.

Thank you all!

Australian Medical Council exams DONE AND DUSTED….

Need to thank few people who helped me throughout this hectic journey.

First of all my SHADOW K*** T*** it wouldn’t have been possible to achieve any of this without your love, courage and the trust you have on me.

Secondly my dad D*** L*** who always pushed me to achieve my full potential and climb towards success since I was young.

And not to forget my beautiful brilliant and highly supportive study partners F*** A L***, N*** R*** and S*** A***. My AMC journey would have not been this easy without you girls. We definitely had a great time studying and role playing together.

Alan Roberts International Medical Graduates Support and Advisory Services. Thank you for moulding us to achieve this goal and also a big thank you to The highly recommended  AMC CLINICAL EXCLUSIVE group which helped me immensely.

Hi,

I’m A*** N*** K*** and I joined ARIMGSAS 8 weeks Clinical from Sep to Nov 2018. I passed AMC Clinical on 27th Feb and got the job interview at Alice Springs Hospital last Friday. And now, I just got the job offer to work as RMO there. So,thank you so much for everything.

I still remember Alan mentioning about Alice Springs Hospital and how it really likes working with Burmese doctors when I told him that I’m from Myanmar on the first day of class.

Regards,

Hi Alan,

Thank you so much for your support without which I wouldn’t have been able to clear the exam in first attempt.

The 7 day course was very useful.

And the mock exams too.

More than any thing, without your intervention I wouldn’t have gotten a date in Dec exam!

Thank you so much for your unconditional support and standing for us through the tough times of booking exam dates during December 2018.

I was in first trimester pregnancy during exam preparation and exam time. And hence, I was desperate to give the exam in December as it would have been tougher to study and give exam later.

Immensely thankful to you in securing Dec exam dates for your students. Only because of that I have enjoyed the rest of my pregnancy!

And soon will be eligible for general registration and can apply for ICU or anaesthetic  training programs.

I have been recommending many of my friends who are preparing for exam to ARIMGSAS.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Hello Alan:

It was really great to catch up with you a few weeks ago in Melbourne after my retest. I am pleased to say that the exam went well and I passed with a score of 7/8. I have highly recommended ARIMGSAS to my friends who plan on doing the AMC exams due to the high level of support I have received. I really appreciate the advice that you gave me during our meeting. As per our conversation, I have included you as a referee in my resume. I would really appreciate if you could inform me of any opportunities that may come to your attention. Thank you.

Regards,

Dear Alan,

Hope you are doing great!

I haven’t been in touch with you for a long time now but whatever I do in my academic/professional career in Australia, I always think of you!

I would like to share 2 good news with you! I have got my general registration today and also last week I have joined Monash health. As you know, this is still the beginning and a long way to go!

I remember the first day when I started my journey at ARIMGSAS with the ALS course with Dr Maria Perez followed by clinical course later on. During my course I used to be so nervous but I remember the way you hugged me like my own father and encouraged me to go ahead while I was crying so much and unable to talk even!

After passing my exam I started tutoring only because you believed I could do that even though I was so hesitant to do it. I continued to do it till I got a formal job offer and started working. I couldn’t continue teaching because of other personal issues. However, I have always found you beside me whenever I needed you!

I am really blessed and grateful to you for your kind support and love towards me and all the IMGs.

Stay blessed always!

I would love to come to ARIMGSAS and meet you soon!

Best regards

I attended Alans Roberts 10 week clinical bridge course 6 months back, and passed my clinical exam soon after in the first attempt! I’m out of words to express my gratitude to Alan and every turor and menber of the ARIMGSAS team, without whom I couldn’t have imagined this journey. I’ve always been made to feel a part of a big family I could turn to at any point when any hurdle came my way in these past few months. ❤

Dear Alan and Team at ARIMGSAS,

Today I received my AMC MCQ part 1 results in the mail – 310 points, top 25% in all patient groups!

I am really proud of my achievement, especially as I only decided to return to Medicine in June 2018. Of course, my result wouldn’t have been possible without the great preparation course offered at ARIMGSAS. The tutors were all helpful, friendly and professional, and the topics were covered in good depth and with attention to detail. I would definitely recommend the course to anyone hoping to take the MCQ exam!

Now I have passed this first hurdle, I will take time to deepen my knowledge and spend time with my children at Christmas before returning to ARIMGSAS in the new year to prepare for the clinical exam. I am looking forward to seeing many familiar faces and meeting more new friends and future colleagues along the way!

Thank you so much!

Kind regards,

K****

I came to ARIMGSAS one year ago and did the 8week clinical course , since then I have passed clinical and pesci, to be honest it would have been impossible to get through without Alan’s courses.
Alan and all the office members treat you as their own family and there have been times that they go beyond their responsibilities to help IMGs.
Alan I wanted to thank you for all the support and help

I had landed in Australia by myself the night before I came to ARIMGSAS, with 3 weeks for my exam, was completely overwhelmed, scared and to an extent clueless about the format of the exam. For the trial exam I was totally unprepared, I had passed one station out of the 16. One!!! But it was a learning experience and showed me what I am expected to do and what I don’t have worry about. The stations were I was sitting blank, the examiners took the time to teach me the important points about that case and I infact got one on one teaching during the exam. The discussions by the tutors, especially the ones who have recently passed were extremely helpful and gave me the courage to go face the exam 16 days later. Since my trip to Australia was short, i had to take ALS from ARIMGSAS 2 days before my exam. It was again a wonderful workshop and the interactions gave me confidence. The fellow IMGs I met there saw me struggling to cope with the new country, climate and language and were very kind and encouraging to me. I am glad I passed as it has opened the doors of my dreams for me, and will forever be thankful to ARIMGSAS for the help and warmth I got from everyone.
With regards

I am from the ARIMGSAS MCQ Part 1 group in January.I would just like to say a very big thank you, for all your amazing classes. I had truly enjoyed every single one of them. Loved the humour and enthusiasm that you bring to class. But most importantly, I’ve learned a great deal of medical knowledge from you. Just got my results today – I’ve passed MCQ already! So thank you.Hope to meet you again back in Australia!
regards

Hi, I am Dr. F*** T**, AMC Candidate no ***** recently passed my AMC clinical examination . I did my Clinical Course also from ARIMGSAS that held in February, 2017. Really I am grateful and obliged that I did my course from this Institute as I learned so many things that really helped me to pass my AMC CLINICAL examination .

Alan, I would like to take this oppurtunity of thanking you and your wonderful team for all your help. You have the most amazing tutors, trying their utmost to discuss all possible cases during the course that has been asked at the AMC exam. They have a way of making the students feel more in controle of the exam, which is great because one can feel very overwhelmed and lonely as an IMG. After the course the students in our group stuck together and formed a group to discuss and help each other with any questions (even just helping each other staying positive!) I would highly recommend your course for all candidates attempting the AMC exam. The approach I was taught during the time I was there, gave me a structure that I could apply to any case of the exam. Once again, thank you so much for everything you have done. Appreciate it!! There will be no doubt in my mind to use your services again in future for the PESCI/GP exam. Blessings to you and the staff. Regards Bridget

Dear Alan,
Good morning
by the grace of GOD, I passed my clinical examination on 28th of FEB.
I would like to thank you very much and all ARIMGSAS team for your incredible help and support for all IMGs. I would not do that without the comprehensive course that I had.
I seriously recommend ARIMGSAS to all IMGs who want to pass this tough exam and start their career in Australia.
Wish you all the best and prosperity and I hope to be one of ARIMGSAS team soon.
sincerely
Dr A** A***

The ARIMGSAS programme and staff are incredibly passionate and driven to enable its participates to gain all the skills and tools necessary to achieve registration and employment here in Australia. There is an understanding and empathy shown to all the variety of circumstances IMGs have encountered, which is a tribute to the vast experience shown by Alan Roberts whom has been leading this movement for over 20 years.

My own circumstances would include very regular offers of observership and employment in both GP and hospital settings as well as mentorship regrading my CV and interview technique culnimating in a offer of employment in a Metro Hospital in Melbourne. All of this was on top of the extensive 12 week full time programme which both refines all aspects of performing well in the AMC clinical examinations and well as making you a complete clinician.

Dear Mr. Alan Roberts,

Thank you for every thing you offered during the 5W preparation course.
I appreciate the way you treated me. You gave me a chance to sit for a formal exam too. I am glad I attended your course, it was a great experience for me starting from you ,staff , tutors and my colleagues all are amazing.
I do not know how to express my feeling at the moment but what is coming to my mind . I am missing every one and I will never forget any one.
Just now I realised that how my husband was feeling toward you. He was pushing me to do this course , I was afraid about my kids how to cope with my absence. He stopped his work to let me to attend the course 5 days a week.

Dear Alan,
I am writing today to thank you for all the support that you have extended to me during my time at ARIMGSAS. I am very pleased to share with you that I have passed my clinical exam on the 26th of November, after the preparation course I attended in October last year. It was a huge effort to successfully complete the two AMC examinations in the same year (MCQ and Clinical) and it wouldn’t have been possible without hard work, and without the help and guidance of your team.

S*** has finally cleared the AMC MCQ exam and this would not have been possible without your support. I am so glad I was able to connect with you.

Thank you for everything and we are definitely looking into getting him started for the 10 week Clinical Course in February, so that he can clear his clinical exams at the earliest.

Dear Alan,

I have successfully passed my AMC Clinical last month on the first attempt and I have achieved my AMC certificate.
In the era of an extremely poor passing rate, I am thankful to God for helping my hard work & continual practice and get me over the line – Putting me in the list of only 4 passed candidates out of a possible 36 on the 8th June Exam.

I am also sincerely thankful to ARIMGSAS for all the support and guidance I have received, in particular I extend my profound thanks to Dr Tarik for his valuable guidance in the physical examination workshop (I passed all 4 physical examination stations) and to Dr Anitha rajeev who offered very strong & positive critiques in my trial exam related to gynae & paedia (I passed all gynae plus all paediatric stations) and overall 14 out of 16.

I am looking forward to receiving more employment related guidance from you and more PESCI online workshops in upcoming days.

Many Thanks,

Parul

Dr Christian

Dear Alan Roberts,

My name is Charlene Fungai Chideme and I attended the AMC Clinical 7 day bridging course from 18 April 2017 to 24 April 2017. Had AMC Clinical Retest on 29 April 2017 and I am happy to report that I passed!

Thank you for putting together such a helpful course, I found it addressed all my areas of weakness and helped know exactly what the examiners are looking for.

Many thanks to you and your team!!!

Submitted papers for RACGP experience assessment as I have been working as a General Practitioner in Zimbabwe since 2013, though I have no postgraduate GP qualifications. Will probably be coming soon to attend PESCI course.

Will be forever grateful to you all and hope to see you soon.

Warm Regards,

Charlene

To the ARIMGSAS team
I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who was involved in the course I attended from 27th February to 5th March. I passed my AMC Clinical in first attempt with a score of 15/16. The course and trial exam was immensely helpful. Keep up the good work and thank you again for the help.
Regards

You have made a difference through your expertise, encouragement and continued support of international medical graduates, such as myself.

They were always so kind and professional.
I feel confident that the future will bring great experiences to my professional life and I am grateful to be a successful candidate of ARIMGSAS.
Thank you again and I hope to visit you soon.

Dear,

Alan and ARIMGSAS team,

I would like to thank you for providing me all the support and guidance throughout my journey of part 1 and clinical.

I passed my clinical exam today and without you all it would not have been possible.Thank you for being there for international medical doctors guiding them step by step and supporting throughout.

Thank you once again.

I really want to express my gratitude to all the team of ARIMGSAS. As a new IMG here in Australia I found it very challenging to familiarise myself with the Australian medical system and the AMC process. At ARIMGSAS I found all the support I needed. Starting by orientation to preparation of my AMC exams. The team is very helpful and the centre offers a nice learning environment and provides study rooms and Wi-Fi access after-hours. We had an amazing experience during the course with different tutors from different backgrounds who were very generous by sharing their knowledge and experiences with us. I was really fortunate to enrol on the clinical course which helped me to clear my exam on the first attempt. I highly recommend their services to all my colleagues. Thank you ARIMGSAS for all the guidance you provide to IMGs.

I write this email to confirm to you that I sat AMC MCQ exam on 20th July and I got through, thanks to God and with the excellent guidance & encouragement of you and your team of tutor, who put in incredible time and effort to teach us the maximum in short time. This course most certainly helped me a lot, when I did exam last time, I did not have same approach to questions or this specific knowledge as required in Australia. I acquired those through the MCQ course. It was vast material in short time, but with Absolute benefit to us all. I came out of exam room, being unsure, as I found the exam tough. But Thanks to God and all you & your team, and support of my family & friend, I Got through the MCQ.

 Much Gratitude to you for all your efforts and encouragement and guidance you provided together with a great team.

Just wanted to share that I passed the AMC Clinical exam and did well on the Pesci as well – though I think I will take the hospital job versus the GP position as there will be much more support and fellowship.
Thank you Alan Roberts and the entire ARIMGSAS team for all of your help. You guys are the best and I had a blast whilst there – the entertainment value and laughter was worth the price of admission.
Miss and Love you all

I attended the 5-week bridging course in Dec/Jan at ARIMGSAS.
The good news is that I passed my AMC Clinical in February and I am truly thankful to your team whose efforts and hard work made all this possible.
It was a gruelling five weeks and got me thinking how tough the 10-weeks course might be. I am glad I came to know of the 5 week course at the nick of time through a friend who had attended a course at ARIMGSAS.

The ARIMGSAS trial exams felt like a boot camp all together and the examiners and role players were very helpful and friendly. The role plays that I did in front of the class, under the guidance of the tutors, during the course were definitely a rehearsal that aided me through all the stations.

I have found memories, Dr. Anitha’s systematic nature and attention to detail, Dr. Dilpreet’s passion and simplified format in teaching, Dr. Awad’s humor and Clinical skills, Dr.Apoove’s easy going nature that made him very approachable  not forgetting  Alan Roberts; an astute leader. Alan is truly inspiring, he believed in us and his frequent visit to the classroom meant that he was cheering us on.

I would like to inform you all that I have passed my clinical examination which was held on 25th February. I attended the clinical bridging course at ARIMGSAS and I found it really helpful. It was a wonderful experience indeed. I am really grateful to you all for being so kind and cooperative, thank you.

“The ARIMGSAS programme and staff are incredibly passionate and driven to enable its participants to gain all the skills and tools necessary to achieve registration and employment here in Australia. There is an understanding and empathy shown to all the variety of circumstances IMGs have encountered, which is a tribute to the vast experience shown by Alan Roberts whom has been leading this movement for over 20 years.

All of this was on top of the extensive 12 week full time programme which both refines all aspects of performing well in the AMC clinical examinations and forging you into a complete clinician.
The exposure and fellowship with like-minded IMGs is also an invaluable resource here. I cannot underscore how valuable it is to develop study partnerships and to be critiqued by colleagues whom are just as invested as you are. The investment you make will be repaid for many years along with the friendships you will undoubtedly forge.

I have no hesitation in recommending ARIMGSAS and its members for all colleagues who wish to seriously wish to aggressively pursue employment and/or registration in Australia.”

“ARIMGSAS has been providing support throughout the AMC examination preparation by providing study rooms after hours so that students can study until late, even until the morning if you wish so and this has greatly benefit us as we often studied until late. Furthermore, after the exam, Alan and all the tutors are very helpful to clients in guiding them with their CV preparation and being their referees, which is very important for us. I was really fortunate to meet ARIMGSAS team and has been a pleasure to know ARIMGSAS, see you guys again soon. Keep in touch.”

“I’d like to thank the team at ARIMGSAS for their professionalism and continuous support. I found the bridging courses really beneficial in reducing my preparation time for AMC exams. The practical role plays and trial exams, in particular, helped me to identify where I needed to focus my study energy.  Alan’s extensive networking advice and the variety of workshops to choose from prepared me for my jobs. In addition to my hospital job, I’m currently enjoying the opportunity to give back by sharing my knowledge and experience by teaching the bridging course to other IMGs.”

Alan Roberts is the person who helped me in every step to get in to the system. When I was so upset and I was feeling helpless he just showed me the light at the end of the dark tunnel. After getting a refusal letter from AHPRA, I was about to give up but he encouraged me and gave me hope. I was lucky to have his guidance which put me in my current position. Now, I’ve started working as a GP, which initially was a big challenge for me. Alan helped me to find a job, gave me a good reference and helped in every step to finalize my registration.
It is not enough to say thank you to Alan, it’s more than that. He is so kind hearted to help everyone not only his students and I am a good example of that.
Thank you Alan and ARIMGSAS for everything.

I did not have much friends in the medical field when I moved to Melbourne. Came to know about ARIMSAS through a friend.
Joining Alan’s course helped me a lot. He is a lovely person! Alan lends u a helping hand even after the course..The course will give you guidance as what to study, how to study and u will get opportunities to practise recalls, u will have tutors to get ur doubts cleared, valuable frends to study with..
I did both my MCQ and Clinicals at the ARIMGSAS..! Cleared both in the first attempt..! Of Course with lots of dedicated and planned work after the course!
Had a lovely experience at ARIMGSAS! Now I am not alone..! We are a big group! :)

I can never fully acknowledge the attention and the guidance that I got from Alan Roberts to help me become a better professional, nonetheless, I am extremely thankful for their help and support on every step of the way, and really appreciate the tremendous amount of time and energy that they have spent in getting me across the line. Thank you so much every one!
