The Contour Podcast

Contour is more than just a tutoring company—it’s our vision to reshape education, one student at a time. So far, we’ve helped over 3,500 students excel in their studies, by providing them an ecosystem of resources, tutoring, and support. We’ve also built an amazing team of 120+ people, who are all passionate about our mission, and focused on ultimately empowering students to achieve their true potential. Through The Contour Podcast, we’re going to showcase more of what makes Contour, well, “Contour”. You’ll meet some of the very top high-achieving students and tutors in Victoria and Australia—from Premier’s Award Winners, to Perfect ATAR Scorers, to School Duxes. They’ll talk about their high school journey, personal growth, the ins and outs of how they achieved the results they did, and they'll also talk about real-world strategies and insights (i.e., actionable advice) that you can actually implement. Our first series of episodes is our Medical Student Interviews by Contour MedPrep. In this series, our host, James Blanch, interviews several high-achieving medical students about their journey into medicine, and life as a medical student. These episodes dive deep into some of the proven methods we’ve used that have seen countless students gain entry into Medicine. This is your chance to learn from current medical students about exactly what it takes to get into medicine. We break down the challenges of the medical admissions process, provide practical strategies, and share inspiring success stories from students just like you, or who were in your shoes not too long ago. If you’re serious about your medical career, we think you'll enjoy listening to this series, and will hopefully take away some valuable insights or guidance, too. If we’re able to help even one student in their academic journey with some actionable advice that helps them improve and achieve their potential, we’re fulfilling the goal of these episodes! What is Contour MedPrep? Our medical preparation branch at Contour, which is currently Australia’s most effective medical preparation program. We’re not just your run-of-the-mill UCAT tutors—we provide comprehensive medical preparation, with the overall goal of maximising your chances of entry. With our programs, we take you from start to finish in your journey to become a doctor or dentist, from UCAT tutoring, to Interview Preparation, to Application Writing. Our past results at Contour speak for themselves—we not only tutored the World Record UCAT Scorer (3590) just last year, but we also have truly record-breaking UCAT results that are quite literally unheard of anywhere else: - 3590 (Official World Record) - 3060 Median UCAT (90th Percentile) - 1 in 10 Contour Students Scored 99th Percentile - 5 in 10 Contour Students Scored Above 91st Percentile - 3590, 3560, 3550, 3540, 3490, 3470, 3470, 3460, 3450, 3440, 3440 , 3430, 3430, 3430, 3430, 3430, 3430, 3420, 3410, 3410, 3400, 3400, 3400, 3400, 3400, 3400, 3400, 3400 are just some of our top scorers.
