Ramodh Jayasinghe

Head of Medical Preparation

Hey! I'm Ramodh and I can't wait to help make your medicine goals a reality!

Having been through Medicine entry, I’ve seen first-hand how it’s often over-complicated and misunderstood as a daunting and complex process, which requires hours of daily preparation to even stand a chance of getting in.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Personally, I adopted a completely different approach, which focused on developing the precise set of skills tested with an emphasis on mastering the mindset needed to succeed in medicine entry.

During the program, we'll focus on these exact high-yield methods of UCAT preparation.

Through engaging tutoring and personalised support, I'll make it my goal to give you (or your son/daughter) a clear pathway on how to prepare for the UCAT, and get the result you deserve.

Together we’ll maximise your chances at getting into medicine.

I also believe it’s not only the tutoring or resources that make a good tutor, but importantly the support you receive during, and outside of class.

That’s why I’ll always be there with prompt replies to any questions or concerns you have, and I’ll always be working hard behind the scenes to help, motivate, and coach you along your journey to Medicine!

I found Contour really helpful for my UCAT prep; everything, from the content lessons to the live mock testing centres, is fine-tuned based on student feedback to make the journey easier. Also, the tutors are great! Their advice and care really helped me lock in, but also made everything a lot less daunting and stressful. Definitely recommend.

Contour has honestly been one of the best decisions I made for UCAT preparation. They break everything down into clear, manageable steps - the roadmap and priming workbooks were super helpful resources for knowing exactly what to work on. I’m so glad I joined - it completely shifted my mindset and how I approached the UCAT. Would 100% recommend.

Enrolling in Contour provides a clear advantage in the UCAT. While success is not limited to those in the program, Contour makes the path to it far more focused and effective. From core strategies to personalised guidance, they tailor support to each student's needs. The ultimate goal of the UCAT is to feel confident and prepared - and Contour consistently delivers that experience, not just for me, but for countless students year after year.

I joined Contour MedPrep earlier this year and found it to be one of the most structured and supportive preparation programs. The combination of content lessons, practical sessions, and other resources gave me more than enough to approach the UCAT confidently. Their material is detailed and well thought out, constantly seeking feedback to make sure that they provide the most effective and helpful resources.

I would absolutely recommend the Contour MedPrep program to anyone looking for a more guided and supportive approach to UCAT prep, because it not only taught me the skills I needed to ace my UCAT, it also gave me a support network of people who knew exactly how I felt before, during, and after my exam! Thank you, Contour!

Contour’ UCAT tutoring provides detailed schedules and effective learning methods. This has helped my son to quickly build up the skills and confidence on the UCAT journey. The eventual satisfying score has proven the great value of attending the program. Thanks again for Contour’s accompaniment. We wish Contour to continue providing excellent service for all attendees to achieve their dreams.

My daughter had a brilliant experience with Contour. She especially loved the one on one support she received from her mentors at Contour which made her feel like she wasn’t going through it alone. As parents we felt it was worth every dollar we spent and would recommend Contour to anyone attempting the UCAT.

Ramodh and the entire Contour team are so insightful. Lessons are so well formulated and structured, and flowed well from one to the next to truly deepen understanding, familiarity and comfort with the exam. Contour truly encapsulates everything I could want in a tutoring course -- I couldn't imagine anything more well-rounded for the UCAT journey.

My daughter is doing interview preparation with Contour, and I am equally confident in the quality of their program for this next stage. Ultimately, whether you want to invest in UCAT exam and interview preparation is a personal decision. However, based on our experience, I can say it is definitely worth the money.

Very happy with Countour’s MedPrep course for my son. He enrolled in December last year and had just done his UCAT exam, peaking on the actual exam. A big relief that all the hard work paid off! I found Contour to be a very good tutoring company and their services friendly, well thought out, and beyond expectations.

Contour is AMAZING!! After sitting the UCAT in 2024 and feeling upset about my score, I tried again this year with Contour. The entire process was very well-structured and helped a ton in improving/maintaining my focus, mindset, and performance towards the UCAT. They provide the structured framework to help you succeed in UCAT. Probably the best decision I ever made for my UCAT prep. I can’t recommend them enough.

The tutoring program provided excellent support for my daughter’s UCAT preparation. The intensive timetable and tutorial sessions kept her on track, and the practice exams gave her valuable experience that closely reflected the actual exam. Highly recommended for anyone preparing for UCAT.
