About

99.35 ATAR + 99 UCAT (3310) + WSU MED __________________________________________________________________________ Hey! I'm Nevin, and I graduated in 2022 from the academically selective Hurlstone Agricultural High School, South-Western Sydney's consistently highest-ranked school. I scored Band 6's in four courses, with my strongest subject being Physics (96 Mark for both internals and HSC), and am now entering my first year of medicine at Western Sydney University, after spending a year studying provisional medicine in Queensland. I've had experience in teaching from an early age and I know firsthand what it takes to succeed within a diverse range of schooling contexts. Having scored a 99+ ATAR despite never taking notes and without rote-learning content years ahead of school, I'm passionate about sharing my secrets to beat the HSC! I'm also a really strong advocate for more holistic mentorship, such as through extending my guidance far beyond the classroom setting and into extracurriculars. I'm determined to help you make the most of your high school experience and be equipped with the skills to succeed after school. Lastly, I'll incorporate FREE tips on the UCAT and Medicine Interviews in my lessons throughout the school year, and I'll even provide personalised advice on Scholarship Applications and HSC Exam Technique. Having turned down the opportunity to study at some of Sydney's elite selective schools, I strongly believe in the notion that you can surpass all expectations no matter what school you go to– It's this vision that drives me in my mission to widen access to quality education for students of all walks of life.
