Why I built Vettamed.
When I sat the Humanitas admissions test in early 2026, I had spent eight months preparing. I still did not know what the exam actually looked like.
That is not exaggeration. HUMAT is the entrance test for Humanitas University's Medicine and Surgery and MEDTEC programmes. Humanitas publishes no past papers, no full practice tests, and no question bank. Most major Italian medical-school exams have at least some third-party preparation infrastructure. HUMAT had nothing serious.
I sat the test anyway. I was admitted to MEDTEC and, in the same admissions cycle, to Humanitas Medicine, UniSR, where I ranked third, and UniCatt. I was grateful. I was also frustrated. The format itself is not unfair; walking into it without a realistic way to rehearse is.
So in the months between admission and the start of school, I began rebuilding the test environment for the people who would sit it next. Not the protected exam questions, but the shape of the questions, the timing, the pressure, and the feel of the exam screen when the clock is running.
That work became Vettamed.
What Vettamed is
Vettamed is a desktop application that delivers full HUMAT-format mock examinations in a hardware-locked, kiosk-mode browser. Every section follows the same timing rules as the real test. The scoring engine gives separate Medicine and Surgery and MEDTEC readouts using the weights Humanitas publishes. There is no AI tutor, no adaptive engine, and no webcam proctoring. There is the test, the timer, and a clear result.
The mocks were written by me and refined with my tutor Alev Süner, whose students have been admitted to more than thirty places at UniSR, eight at Humanitas, and several at UniCatt in recent admission cycles. Vettamed brings that rehearsal layer to candidates who would otherwise walk in cold.
Three things I want to say clearly
It is not a guarantee. Every exam carries variance. Vettamed reduces the gap between what you can do and what you can show when you already know the format.
It is not generic exam software. Today there are seven full mocks in the library. The Concierge tier includes personal review calls with me because, at this stage, that is the most honest way to keep quality high while I begin medical school.
It is built for people who take the exam seriously.The price reflects that: EUR199 for Standard, EUR499 for Complete, EUR899 for Concierge. The secure browser exists because the people paying expect preparation to feel like the real thing.
Where it goes from here
I start MEDTEC in October 2026. Vettamed will keep growing alongside that path. The next step is the Founding Cohort, a four-week sprint that ends with a synchronised live mock-exam day. After that, the same frame - secure browser, scoring, review - extends to UniSR and UniCatt. IMAT is not on the roadmap. That market is already well served.
If you are sitting HUMAT in 2027 or 2028, the rehearsal layer I wished existed now exists. Use it well.
