Edward Mak is a Graduate Coach at InGenius Prep specialising in Oxbridge and top-
tier UK university admissions for Life Sciences. He graduated from University of
Oxford with an MBiol (Integrated Master’s) in Biology, securing his offer a year ahead
of entry. His academic work focused on infectious disease and quantitative biology,
with research experience spanning cancer vaccines, sepsis, and antimicrobial
resistance. He has contributed to projects linked to the World Health Organization,
presenting findings at international conferences and to pharmaceutical companies
and healthcare start-ups.
Edward brings nearly a decade of tutoring and admissions coaching experience,
having worked with 100+ students across the UK and internationally. He has
supported successful applications to Biology, Biochemistry, Biomedical Sciences,
Medicine, Chemistry, and related disciplines, with students repeatedly securing offers
from Top 25 UK universities, including Oxford and Cambridge. At InGenius Prep, he
currently holds a 100% Oxbridge offer rate.
His approach centres on three areas: academic profile building, application strategy,
and interview execution. He advises students on high-impact supercurriculars,
independent projects, and application positioning, with a focus on building credible,
academically competitive profiles rather than generic extracurricular lists. He has
deep familiarity with A-level syllabuses, Oxbridge admissions standards, and tutorial-
style teaching, allowing him to train students using the same style of questioning and
discussion encountered in interviews. Students working with Edward receive direct
feedback, structured preparation, and clear performance expectations throughout the
application process.
