Playbooks and tools for your medical school application — everything I wish I knew. And in-depth A-Level guides for Biology and Chemistry, and 1-to-1 mentoring.
Built from what actually gets asked and assessed at UK MMI stations and shortlisting — not generic interview advice. Every paid playbook has a free four-page preview, so you can read the real pages before you decide.

MMI Interview Playbook
Station types, worked examples, and a scoring rubric matched to how UK MMI examiners actually mark. Our most requested resource — free when you sign up for updates.

Compare A-Level, GCSE, UCAT and interview requirements across every GMC-recognised UK medical school, then get matched to Safer, Competitive and Ambitious choices based on your own grades and UCAT score.
How to prepare smarter for the UCAT, avoid the mistakes that cost candidates the most marks, and hold your pace under time pressure — section by section, with a mock analysis system and an error log.
A structured walkthrough for writing a personal statement that survives shortlisting under the post-2024 UCAS three-question format — character budgets, reflective frameworks, and three annotated model answers.
How to shortlist which UK medical schools to apply to — reading entry requirements properly, weighing interview format against your strengths, and building a realistic four-choice list with the self-audit worksheet.
Finding placements without connections, the email templates that actually get replies, and the reflection frameworks that turn a single day of shadowing into answers you can use at interview.
Written from my own A-Level papers, not from a textbook summary. These are systems for turning a specification into marks — how examiners phrase questions, what the mark schemes reward, and how the topics connect.

The A* Biology Playbook — AQA 7402
Not revision notes. A complete system for AQA Biology: the explain-chain that mark schemes are built from, statistics and maths without the fear, required practicals as a framework, and the five master ideas that connect all eight topics.
Six modules taught as one connected subject: the calculation survival guide, mark-scheme dialect, the functional-group master flowchart, and the structure-elucidation workflow for any "identify the compound" question.
The whole AQA 7402 specification hand-drawn as colour-coded mindmaps. Mechanisms broken into numbered steps, labelled diagrams beside the theory they explain, and the required practicals sitting with the topics they test — so a topic is one page, not twelve.
Every OCR A H432 topic as a colour-coded mindmap: full reaction mechanisms with curly arrows, reagents and conditions on the arrow, and definitions next to the structures they describe. Built for active recall — cover a branch, redraw it, check.
Log every past paper and mock you sit, track marks and timing per subject, and keep a mistake log that feeds an automatic dashboard of your strongest and weakest subjects. Opens in Excel or Google Sheets.
Checkout and delivery are handled by Payhip — card details never touch this site.
03 — Mentoring
1-to-1 A-Level mentoring
I mentor students in Biology and Chemistry one to one — tutoring, coaching, whatever you want to call it. It is the same system the Playbooks are built on, applied to whatever you are actually stuck on — a topic that will not stick, exam technique that keeps costing marks, or a full run-up to a paper.
£20–£25 / hour
A-Level Biology mentoring
I sat AQA Biology 7402 and came out with an A*, so I know that specification and its mark schemes in detail. Sessions focus on the things that actually move a grade: building explain-chains examiners can follow, reading unfamiliar data under time pressure, and the statistics and maths most students quietly avoid.

A-Level Chemistry mentoring
I achieved an A in OCR A Chemistry H432, consistently hitting A/A* grades across my mock series. Sessions cover the parts that separate grades: calculations done reliably rather than hopefully, organic chemistry as one flowchart instead of forty facts, and the structure-elucidation questions that decide Paper 3.

Message me on LinkedIn or send me an email and tell me your exam board, your current grade and what you want to fix. I will tell you honestly whether I am the right person for it.
A live session on using AI properly for A-Level revision — turning a specification into active recall material, generating and marking practice answers against real mark schemes, and spotting the ways AI will quietly teach you the wrong thing if you let it.

What we collect
If you sign up for the Playbook or product updates: your name, email address, and academic stage (Year 12, Year 13, gap year, or other).
If you create an account in the app: your email address and a password — or, if you use “Continue with Google”, the email address Google shares with us.
As you practise: written transcripts of your answers, the feedback and scores generated from them, and your progress over time.
Voice recordings
Stations can be answered out loud. Your audio is transcribed so the answer can be scored, and the recording itself is not kept — we do not store voice recordings.
The written transcript is kept, along with the feedback and score generated from it, so you can review past attempts and track your progress.

Understand our user base to prioritise what gets built first
We never sell or rent your data to third parties for marketing.
Third-party processors
The app is built and hosted on Base44, which stores your account details and practice transcripts on our behalf. See base44.com/privacy-policy.
If you sign in with Google, Google confirms your identity and shares your email address with us. See policies.google.com/privacy.
Mailing-list signups are processed by Kit (kit.com), which stores your name, email, and academic stage to send you the Playbook and product updates. See kit.com/privacy.
Payments
Paid playbooks and Premium subscriptions are both processed by Stripe. Your card details are entered on Stripe's own checkout page and are never sent to, seen by, or stored by us. Stripe holds your email address and payment record as the processor for that transaction — see stripe.com/privacy.
For playbook purchases we use the Stripe order reference solely to confirm your purchase and release your download.
