Then I tell you, plainly, what to do next.
What consulting is.
Pick any one to read about. The list stays with you while you read.
We look at what you've already got and plan every step ahead. I give you a realistic read on your chances. Where you're strong, where you look the same as everyone else, where there's something to fix, and what would move the needle for the schools you're targeting.
Before we meet, I send you a detailed questionnaire and review everything you send back. In the session I share my assessment, look at your target and the time you have, and tell you how to make yourself more competitive for the schools you're aiming at. I help you build a path where you can be competitive rather than just eligible.
- Predicted and achieved grades
- Work experience
- Volunteering
- Extracurriculars and personal qualities
- UCAT or GAMSAT scores
- Personal statement strength and direction
- Your school list, target type, and what each school weights
- Year 12, starting out
- Year 13, close to UCAS deadline
- Gap year, planning a stronger second attempt
- Graduate or mature applicant working out positioning
- International applicant from Canada, Hong Kong, Australia, Singapore, India or the Gulf
- Re-applicant figuring out what to strengthen for next cycle
- Applicant choosing between A100 and GEM routes
How I work.
Prep time included, not charged separately.
All the prep I do before your session is included. Before we meet I spend hours reading your materials, reviewing your practice, looking at your application. I don't charge for that time, and it's not counted in the session hours you book. So when we meet, work begins from minute one. We don't waste thirty minutes catching me up on basics.
Ongoing access between sessions.
WhatsApp me anytime between sessions to ask questions as they come up. You'll have your own dashboards and trackers built for you, and I send targeted resources between meetings. You can check in whenever, share an update, or ask me to review what you've been working on. I also reach out proactively across the season when I see something worth flagging.
About me.

I'm Dr. Dibah Jiva. I've spent 19 years helping students get into UK medical schools.
I'm a qualified medical doctor and the founder of theMSAG. Every consulting session is with me directly. No team, no junior tutor, no handoff.
- MBBS, qualified medical doctor
- 19 years guiding UK medical school applicants
- 1,000+ students supported
- Founder, theMSAG
Pricing, all visible.
Pick by what you need. The £250 first session is a diagnostic across whichever service(s) you came for. Focused Support is depth in one. The Full Package is both, across the full cycle.
First session
90 minutes, one to one with me.
A diagnostic across whichever service(s) you came for. Standalone. You can do this once, take the plan away, and execute on your own. Most students do.
- I prep before we meet (form review for guidance, question-bank analysis for exam prep, prep-notes review for interviews)
- We meet for 90 minutes. I tell you where you stand and what to do next
- After, you decide if you want to carry on. No pressure either way
Focused Support
6 hours of one to one with me, used across the cycle.
For students who want me involved at key moments. Personal statement, school choice, mock interviews, final review before submission. We use the hours as your application needs them.
- Pick what you need: guidance, preparation, or a mix
- 1:1 hours never expire and can transfer to a sibling or someone you designate
- Message me anytime during the cycle
Full Package
20 hours one to one + my UCAT course + my Interview course + everything I run across the cycle.
For students who want me holding the strategy from the start of the cycle to the offer letter. I track every part of your application on my side. Nothing falls through the cracks.
- Both services in depth: guidance and preparation
- Mock interview tailored to every interview invitation you receive (up to four, normally £140 each)
- I review your application throughout the cycle and reach out proactively
Existing clients can add 10-hour blocks for £2,000.
What's in the Full Package.
£5,000. 20 hours one to one with me, plus my UCAT course (or GAMSAT 1:1 prep), plus my Interview course, plus everything I run across the cycle. Three categories: the guidance work, the preparation work, and how I work between sessions.
Service 1: Guidance and strategy
- 20 hours one to one with me, used across the cycle
- Pre-session intake questionnaire and full profile review against my data
- Strategic four-school shortlist built for your profile
- Personal statement direction and unlimited review rounds
- Application timeline mapped to your deadlines
- Volunteering and work experience guidance
Service 2: Preparation
- UCAT course: 12 hours digital, plus question bank. Or GAMSAT 1:1 prep with curriculum gap analysis if that's your route
- Interview course: 4 weeks of weekday topic sessions, plus 3 months of Sunday practice. Attend as many as you want
- Mock interviews: one tailored mock for every interview invitation, up to four (normally £140 each)
- A custom progress tracker built for your weaknesses, updated as you go
How I work between sessions
- Message me anytime during the cycle
- Parents welcome in every session
- 1:1 hours never expire and can transfer to a sibling or someone you designate
- I review your application throughout the cycle and reach out proactively
To start: book the £250 first session. If the Full Package is the right fit, I'll send you the link at the end of the call.

“She gives students their dreams back, families hope back and changes lives for the better.”
Dr Jiva did not give us any empty promises or guarantees. She gave us something better; she gave us hope. Hope that my youngest son, Rohan, would fulfil his dream of becoming a doctor and his desire to travel the world bringing modern health-care to people who need it most. When I looked for support, the consultants that offered similar services to Dr Jiva cost incredible amounts of money, and we had already spent thousands of dollars on someone who offered very little tangible help. Out of desperation, I started searching online. Luckily, I came across the MSAG and their mobile number. I spoke to a member of the team and shortly after, to my complete amazement and gratitude, Dr Jiva herself called back. And she listened. She listened patiently to my son's entire story and then gave us hope. If it wasn't for Dr Jiva, I know that Rohan would have had to have done something completely different with his life. Finding Dr Jiva was life-changing, not only for Rohan, but for us as a family. Rohan has now graduated from medical school and has his dream career ahead of him that will probably last his lifetime. Dr Jiva does so much more than help students get into medical school

“Without a shadow of doubt, Hugh would not have managed to achieve his goals.”
We first met Dibah when our son enrolled in the MSAG summer school in 2019. Dibah guided him through personal statement, UCAT, and MMI preparation. Every step of the way Dibah has been his sounding board. As it now stands Hugh has achieved 3 strong A's in his mocks of Chemistry, Biology and Physics. He has offers to study medicine at 2 Universities (AAA or AAB) and 2 alternative offers. I can say without a shadow of doubt had we not been lucky enough to choose this summer school and subsequently met Dibah, Hugh would not have managed to achieve his goals. She has shown a parental like pride in the achievement of her protege

Her knowledge of this process is head and shoulders above the mainstream, which I feel makes her unique and is the reason we trusted her to guide our son through the process. Dibah is someone who goes above and beyond in providing excellent service
Mousumi Chatterjee & Fahim Rahman
Parents · re: Ishaan Rahman · 1 September 2019
“Dibah was friendly and warm and made me feel like she was on my side”
Dibah is amazing. She herself is incredibly inspiring but what she got out of me went above and beyond. I decided 18 months ago that I wanted to return to university and apply for graduate medicine. I studied hard for the GAMSAT and honestly thought that would be hardest part of the application process. Little did I know. Three interviews, two rejections and 1 waiting list later my confidence and nerves were at an all time low and I'm not a nervous person. I decided that I needed to make one last attempt at securing a place for September 2014 and applied to St George's course run at the University of Nicosia. They offered me an interview and I panicked. How was I going to get over the final hurdle this time? I'd purchased Dibah's book 'Graduate Entry Medicine 2014-2015' earlier in the application cycle and had found this the most helpful in my previous preparation so I pulled this out again and visited her website looking for inspiration. It wasn't that I hadn't prepared but re-reading Dibah's website I opened up to the truth that I hadn't 'practised'. I was afraid of saying my answers out loud in case they sounded [censored]. Very nervously, I took the plunge and bought an hour of Dibah's time. Suffice to say I needed more than an hour but it is the best money I've spent to date. . She asked me questions so that she got a feel of the real me and helped me answer the questions based on what I had to say not on what some book said was the best way to answer the question. Dibah was brutally honest (but always in a nice way) which is what I needed. She enabled me to perform in the way that I needed to so that I could be successful at interview and gave me the confidence to ask those around me for help thereby giving me the interview exposure that I so desperately needed

Thank you for your excellent guidance and help. I am so delighted to inform you that . Without you and your team's timely help we wouldn't have seen this lucky day. Thank you so much to you and everyone at MSAG. You are making real difference in people's life
Dr Anup K Sarkar
Parent · re: Janessa · 14 August 2025
“Being the first in my school to be offered a place for Medicine is in large part due to Dibah's help”
Dibah helped with my application for UK Medical Schools. I had come from an American international school in London where no one had ever applied or been accepted by a UK Medical School before. Not to mention, my academic qualifications were abnormal for many UK universities. Dibah was extremely helpful in planning out my application, contacting universities for information and, in general, giving good advice along the way. Within the first few weeks of her assistance, I had a much clearer picture of what I needed to be competitive for each university in terms of grades, interview scores and extra-curricular activities. She also got in touch with many university admissions offices to ask them specifically about my application. Through her persistence, she managed to get clear answers about what each medical school expected from applicants, something that I had found very difficult previously. Her hands-on approach meant that I had help every step of the way, including preparing for entrance exams, writing my personal statement and practicing for interviews. She was always accessible throughout this time as well and I could always rely on her for an honest, balanced but positive opinion. Even when I doubted myself throughout the application process, she was always there for help and, crucially, gave me options for how to do better. As a result of her help, I managed to get offers of acceptance from almost all of the Medical Schools I applied to including my first choice university

“All support was tailored to me as a person, rather than just using a blanket formula.”
I feel as though the MSAGs support was so effective because they took the time to get to know me and knew what would help me most. I aced the interviews and got offers from all three Universities

I treasure having come in contact with you Dr Jiva and am truly grateful to God. We want to continue to stay in touch with you through her med school and very much hope you would be there for us thank you so much. No words to express my deep gratitude pavi”

“She helped me pull apart my experiences to find the right stories to tell to the medical schools”
Dibah was a great help throughout my medical school application. and the skills I had developed throughout my academic career. She asked me key questions that made me reflect upon my experiences in a deeper way. And hence, the personal statement I wrote, truly exposed my motivation for medicine, skills I have acquired and their application to the field of medicine. It is one thing to have had worthwhile experiences and some accomplishments, but without the right projection, I do not think you can really sell yourself to the admissions committees. Dibah has the insight and is very well informed into the selection processes of different medical schools. Her experience, editing skills and knowledge of the process are excellent and I would recommend her to anyone! This service is an excellent option for everyone looking for an edge in their medical school application

Applying for medical school is such a complex process with so much conflicting information, plus the medical schools seem to keep moving the goalpost. We needed an independent review, someone to look at our best attributes and match them to appropriate medical schools. This is exactly what we got from Dr Jiva ! At the end of the session we had 4 sensible options written down and felt much more relaxed about the way forward. We honestly felt this service was great value for money and after this experience have applied for further courses run by the company. Well done guys and keep up the good work”

Finding a medical school where you have a decent chance of being accepted is low even with outstanding grades and non-academics and decent UCATs, and Dr. Jiva will help you match your strengths to the school's application process and requirements.

“She gives students their dreams back, families hope back and changes lives for the better.”
Dr Jiva did not give us any empty promises or guarantees. She gave us something better; she gave us hope. Hope that my youngest son, Rohan, would fulfil his dream of becoming a doctor and his desire to travel the world bringing modern health-care to people who need it most. When I looked for support, the consultants that offered similar services to Dr Jiva cost incredible amounts of money, and we had already spent thousands of dollars on someone who offered very little tangible help. Out of desperation, I started searching online. Luckily, I came across the MSAG and their mobile number. I spoke to a member of the team and shortly after, to my complete amazement and gratitude, Dr Jiva herself called back. And she listened. She listened patiently to my son's entire story and then gave us hope. If it wasn't for Dr Jiva, I know that Rohan would have had to have done something completely different with his life. Finding Dr Jiva was life-changing, not only for Rohan, but for us as a family. Rohan has now graduated from medical school and has his dream career ahead of him that will probably last his lifetime. Dr Jiva does so much more than help students get into medical school

“Without a shadow of doubt, Hugh would not have managed to achieve his goals.”
We first met Dibah when our son enrolled in the MSAG summer school in 2019. Dibah guided him through personal statement, UCAT, and MMI preparation. Every step of the way Dibah has been his sounding board. As it now stands Hugh has achieved 3 strong A's in his mocks of Chemistry, Biology and Physics. He has offers to study medicine at 2 Universities (AAA or AAB) and 2 alternative offers. I can say without a shadow of doubt had we not been lucky enough to choose this summer school and subsequently met Dibah, Hugh would not have managed to achieve his goals. She has shown a parental like pride in the achievement of her protege

“Dibah was friendly and warm and made me feel like she was on my side”
Dibah is amazing. She herself is incredibly inspiring but what she got out of me went above and beyond. I decided 18 months ago that I wanted to return to university and apply for graduate medicine. I studied hard for the GAMSAT and honestly thought that would be hardest part of the application process. Little did I know. Three interviews, two rejections and 1 waiting list later my confidence and nerves were at an all time low and I'm not a nervous person. I decided that I needed to make one last attempt at securing a place for September 2014 and applied to St George's course run at the University of Nicosia. They offered me an interview and I panicked. How was I going to get over the final hurdle this time? I'd purchased Dibah's book 'Graduate Entry Medicine 2014-2015' earlier in the application cycle and had found this the most helpful in my previous preparation so I pulled this out again and visited her website looking for inspiration. It wasn't that I hadn't prepared but re-reading Dibah's website I opened up to the truth that I hadn't 'practised'. I was afraid of saying my answers out loud in case they sounded [censored]. Very nervously, I took the plunge and bought an hour of Dibah's time. Suffice to say I needed more than an hour but it is the best money I've spent to date. . She asked me questions so that she got a feel of the real me and helped me answer the questions based on what I had to say not on what some book said was the best way to answer the question. Dibah was brutally honest (but always in a nice way) which is what I needed. She enabled me to perform in the way that I needed to so that I could be successful at interview and gave me the confidence to ask those around me for help thereby giving me the interview exposure that I so desperately needed

“Being the first in my school to be offered a place for Medicine is in large part due to Dibah's help”
Dibah helped with my application for UK Medical Schools. I had come from an American international school in London where no one had ever applied or been accepted by a UK Medical School before. Not to mention, my academic qualifications were abnormal for many UK universities. Dibah was extremely helpful in planning out my application, contacting universities for information and, in general, giving good advice along the way. Within the first few weeks of her assistance, I had a much clearer picture of what I needed to be competitive for each university in terms of grades, interview scores and extra-curricular activities. She also got in touch with many university admissions offices to ask them specifically about my application. Through her persistence, she managed to get clear answers about what each medical school expected from applicants, something that I had found very difficult previously. Her hands-on approach meant that I had help every step of the way, including preparing for entrance exams, writing my personal statement and practicing for interviews. She was always accessible throughout this time as well and I could always rely on her for an honest, balanced but positive opinion. Even when I doubted myself throughout the application process, she was always there for help and, crucially, gave me options for how to do better. As a result of her help, I managed to get offers of acceptance from almost all of the Medical Schools I applied to including my first choice university

“She helped me pull apart my experiences to find the right stories to tell to the medical schools”
Dibah was a great help throughout my medical school application. and the skills I had developed throughout my academic career. She asked me key questions that made me reflect upon my experiences in a deeper way. And hence, the personal statement I wrote, truly exposed my motivation for medicine, skills I have acquired and their application to the field of medicine. It is one thing to have had worthwhile experiences and some accomplishments, but without the right projection, I do not think you can really sell yourself to the admissions committees. Dibah has the insight and is very well informed into the selection processes of different medical schools. Her experience, editing skills and knowledge of the process are excellent and I would recommend her to anyone! This service is an excellent option for everyone looking for an edge in their medical school application

We needed an independent review, someone to look at our best attributes and match them to appropriate medical schools. This is exactly what we got from Dr Jiva ! At the end of the session we had 4 sensible options written down and felt much more relaxed about the way forward. We honestly felt this service was great value for money and after this experience have applied for further courses run by the company. Well done guys and keep up the good work”

We will have a second meeting when the UCAT final scores are out. Thank you for the inspiration and guidance!”

“As a an international student we all know it’s really competitive to get into medicine in the UK. And we as international students are always worried regarding the ratio of applicants to places as well as how Universities select students. Most of such information I couldn’t find in the Universties websites. Thanks to Dr. Dibah not only for providing me with all of this of information but for showing me which universities I should apply to with my low UCAT score and being an international applicant.”

You asked. I answered.
Do I have to commit to a package after my first session?
Will I always work with Dr. Dibah personally?
Can I add more hours later if I need to?
Is there financial support available?
Are parents and supporters welcome?
How quickly can I get started?
I applied before and was rejected. Can you help?
Do you work with international applicants?
If you're not sure
Most students who book the first session aren't sure yet whether they need a full package or whether one session is enough. That's exactly why the first session exists. You'll know after we've met.
For parents
If you're a parent reading this for your son or daughter, bring them on the call. Most of the work I do is with the student, but the conversations with parents in the room often give me the most useful context.
If you're worried
Worried you've left it too late, or your grades aren't strong enough, or you don't have the "right" work experience: book the session anyway. I'd rather tell you honestly where you stand than have you stay anxious about it.
Start where you are
From first session to offer letter.
90 minutes with me. Standalone. No obligation to continue. After we meet, you choose the path.
