Feedback

This is my comprehensive feedback of Hive academy in Manchester, highlighting the positive aspects. Hive academy was one of the main academies that I followed for my PLAB 2 preparation, and I have recently cleared my PLAB 2 in December

Handled by experienced consultants

Hive academy is run by experienced consultants who have been in the NHS for almost two decades. They are well aware of the UK system, and of what is expected from aspiring doctors and can definitely provide a good mentorship.

Flexibility

This was one of the key reasons I chose Hive academy. IMGs preparing for PLAB 2 would have varied requirements and Hive academy offers flexibility to suit their needs. There are options for personalised classes and mocks ( both online and offline) that are conducted one-on-one by senior consultants in the NHS

End to end support

medical pathway in the UK requires references, portfolios, audits and interview preparation. Hive academy can help with all of that! It’s not just a coaching platform for PLAB 2, but an academy that can support us throughout our journey in the NHS

( I didn’t know about this earlier, but references are an important part of the standalone FY2 application process, along with a higher cutoff for IELTS/OET )

And if someone is just starting out on the PLAB journey, they offer courses for OET/IELTS and PLAB 1 as well

Convenient location for PLAB 2

The GMC centre for PLAB 2 is located in Manchester, and so is Hive academy, so that’s a significant plus. They can even help provide accommodation and support to aspirants.

Overall, as with any academy, if you are clear and consistent with your goals and keep putting in your genuine efforts, Hive academy is definitely a great choice that can guide you in your journey to shine as a doctor in the UK. Thank you

Best Academy for Plab

First of all, I want to thank Lord Jesus for His grace and blessings that helped me pass my PLAB 2 exam. 🙏
I also want to express my heartfelt thanks to Hive Medical Academy for their excellent training and guidance throughout my PLAB 2 journey. The course was well-structured, detailed, and covered all the important aspects of the exam. Most importantly the timings were flexible.

A special thanks to Dr. Umar and Dr. Shakil, who were incredibly supportive, patient, and encouraging. I had only about a month to prepare for the exam and only with their guidance I was able to clear the exam. Their teaching style was clear and focused, and they made sure we understood every concept thoroughly. The mock exams were very realistic and boosted my confidence before the real exam. We also had one on one practice sessions everyday with Dr Umar sir and we were given detailed feedbacks everyday which was super helpful.

They were always kind, prompt, and helpful in every step, from class schedules to guidance before the exam. The environment was so positive and motivating that I felt constantly supported.
I’m truly grateful for this experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hive Medical Academy to anyone preparing for PLAB 2.

I m syed nayel hassan I wanted guidance for my PLAB journey, and that’s when I came across Hive Medical Academy.From my very first interaction, I was highly impressed by their prompt response and professionalism. The team immediately arranged a free consultation with the CEO Dr shakil malik, who took the time to explain every step in detail,from OET preparation to securing a job in the NHS.I decided to register for Hive’s Global Medics NHS Programme, and my experience so far has been nothing short of exceptional. With their support, I passed my OET with flying colors, successfully set up my GMC account, and have now booked my PLAB 1 exam for May, 2025. Currently, I am preparing for PLAB 1 under their expert guidance.If you’re planning to take the PLAB exam, I highly recommend Hive’s Global Medics Programme. It takes care of everything, making the entire process stress-free, well-supported, and expertly guided.
Thank you hive medical academy

Hive Academy OET

I recently completed a OET course with Hive Academy and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of their services. The course material was comprehensive and tailored to the needs of OET candidates, with a strong focus on the four key areas: listening, reading, writing, and speaking.
The lessons were well-structured, engaging, and easy to follow, making complex medical topics more accessible. The trainers were knowledgeable and supportive, providing invaluable feedback on my performance, particularly in the speaking and writing sections. They created a positive and encouraging learning environment, which made me feel confident in my preparation.
What I appreciated most was the realistic practice tests, which mirrored the actual OET exam format. This helped me understand the test's nuances and manage my time effectively during the exam.
I also would like to continue my plab course with Hive academy and share my journey in another post
