Preparing for Medical School Entrance Exams with Medic TOMAS

As many aspiring medical students gear up for their entrance examinations, it's crucial to adopt the right strategies to excel in these challenging tests. Medic TOMAS, a subsidiary of the Riso Educational Group, based in Toshima, Tokyo, is providing a stellar opportunity with its upcoming Spring Classes starting on March 21, 2026.

For many students, the distinction between passing and failing these exams comes down to the fundamentals – ensuring a firm grasp on basic and standard-level problems. Unfortunately, traditional preparation methods often focus excessively on challenging questions, leaving foundational skills neglected. In a group-learning environment, honing in on personal weaknesses can be exceedingly difficult. Many students are recognizing these limitations and are seeking tailored solutions.

Personalized One-on-One Tutoring

Medic TOMAS stands apart with its expert curriculum designed to address these challenges directly. With experienced instructors specializing in medical school entrance preparation, students can expect focused one-on-one instruction, allowing for the precise targeting of their individual weaknesses. This structure ensures that by April, students can solidify their foundational understanding, setting them on a clear path to success. For those eager to evaluate their current grasp of essential principles, now is the perfect time to identify and address any gaps before advancing to the next level.

Proven Success Stories

The effectiveness of Medic TOMAS’s approach is illustrated by numerous successful students. Here are a few inspiring cases:

Case Study 1: Overcoming Perfectionism

Student: O.A. (Tokyo Jikei University Medical School, Yokohama Futaba graduate)
Weakness: A tendency to fixate on achieving perfection, which led to wasted time.
Solution: “While perfection is important, I learned that ensuring I don’t drop the easy points others are able to secure is crucial,” O.A. shared. Over time, with guidance, O.A. transformed biology scores from the 50s to the mid-80s.

Case Study 2: Targeted Improvement

Student: I.S. (Yokohama City University Medical School, Eiko Gakuen graduate)
Weakness: Difficulty in crafting study plans and a significant drop in mock exam performance during the senior year.
Solution: Through focused attention on previously missed questions, I.S. not only tackled weak points but also expanded their understanding by exploring alternative solutions provided by the instructors. This strategic focus allowed I.S. to improve significantly ahead of crucial exams.

Case Study 3: Reinforcing Basics

Student: K.M. (Nihon University Medical School, Kaisei graduate)
Weakness: A lack of confidence particularly in physics and chemistry, compounded by underdeveloped foundational skills in English.
Solution: With remedial sessions starting from the very beginning of key topics in physics, K.M. experienced marked improvement. Utilizing TA (Teaching Assistant) support further ensured they tackled difficult problems effectively, ultimately elevating their academic performance.
