About Us
Welcome to our website! We are a team of medical students located in Kenya who know first-hand the struggles of studying for exams and the importance of having a little extra support. We created this online resource to help other Kenyan medical students, particularly, succeed in their studies and achieve their goals. Our main objective is to provide Kenyan medical students with the resources and support they need to excel in their studies although, we acknowledge other health science students and practitioners may benefit from using our website. We offer a wide range of study materials, including but not limited to, notes, summaries and practice questions, as well as advice on effective study methods and stress management strategies. We believe that every student has the potential to succeed and we are here to help you reach your full potential. Hyperexcision represents precision and excellence. We are dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of quality and professionalism. We are also committed to inclusivity and accessibility in all that we do, as such, we try our best to keep our website free and easily accessible to everyone. We hope, as we grow, to build a community where all medical students can find like-minded individuals to relate to as well as support as they navigate through medical school. We hope you find our website useful as you work towards your own medical career goals.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We would love to hear from you!
Our History
We found that traditional study methods and materials did not meet our needs. Our “cheat sheets” began as a collaborative notebook where we compiled notes from our university lectures in question format. They are concise, easy-to-use, and cover the most important concepts in each subject. They were so helpful that we decided to share them with the rest of the medical student community. So we built this website from scratch to make them accessible to as many students as possible to assist them in achieving their goals as they progress through medical school.
Our Vision
To become the go-to resource for Kenyan medical students seeking high-quality and easily accessible study materials as well as provide support and guidance for their academic journey.
Our Mission
To provide Kenyan medical students with the study resources, support and guidance they need to successfully navigate through medical school and achieve their goals.
