Jump directly into third-year medicine.
The Graduate Entry Medical Programme (GEMP) at the University of the Witwatersrand allows graduates from any discipline to enter the MBBCh programme at the third-year level. Instead of spending six years in medical school, GEMP students complete their degree in just four - joining students who started two years earlier.
No first year. No second year. Straight into the heart of medical studies.
WITS Additional Placement Test
The WAPT is the gate. It covers three components:
Cardiovascular, respiratory, renal and neurophysiology systems and their integrated functions.
Gross anatomy, histology and embryology - the structural foundations of medical science.
Biochemistry, molecular biology and genetics at the cellular and molecular level.
Not a backup plan - an accelerated path to becoming a doctor.
You've already come further than most.
If you're here, you've likely been on a longer road to medicine than you planned.
You might be:
The common thread: you didn't give up.
You've maintained +75% through multiple years of undergrad. That's not luck. That's commitment.
This is your final structured pathway to medicine.
One test. Last opportunity. Make it count.
Before you go further - make sure this pathway is open to you.

Why preparation matters
The WAPT is the final gateway to medicine through GEMP. It tests three components drawn from university-level content - and you need to pass all of them. Without structured preparation, even strong students fall short.
It's not just about knowing the content - it's about understanding how to apply it under pressure - across disciplines you may never have studied together.
You've worked too hard to leave this to chance.
Comprehensive WAPT preparation. We don't just provide the content. We prepare you to master the test.
Both options include all three WAPT components.
Full preparation on your schedule.
Live, in-person preparation with full support.
Monthly, March → August. Final payment due 23 August.
+86% pass rate. 300+ doctors created.
Our GEMP preparation is one of three routes we support for students pursuing medicine. Each pathway has its own entry point, but they share the same commitment: structured preparation that produces real results.
These are not competing programmes - rather, they are complementary pathways into the same goal. Students who start with NBT preparation sometimes transition to GEMP later. Others come to us after university, ready for the WAPT.
Either way, you get a team that's helped hundreds into medicine.
We don't use flashy testimonials or curated case studies. What we have is a preparation pass rate above +86% and hundreds ofstudents who are now practicing doctors.
The results speak for themselves.
We've done this before. We'll do it with you.

Just wanted to let you know that I got 90% for my NBT MAT test. Thank you so much for the great math prep classes! It made a huge difference
Honestly the best way to go over such a large amount of content in a small amount of time. I don’t know how I would have done it without Seventh Star. The lessons were extremely beneficial!
I have recently done your NBT course, and would like to say that it has been a tremendous help with my NBT prep. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent support and guidance throughout the course. Your dedication and patience made a huge difference in my learning experience, and I truly appreciate it. Thank you very much for everything.
