i guess that should be it. thanks!!

Is any1 there hv applied for MBBS in Mahsa Uni College?

any1 wan sell moore's anatomy 6th edition??pls pm me!!!thx!!!

Hey there , any good anatomy book for recommendation? im using Netter for now. Has anyone heard about chaurasia anatomy?

And do you know where can i purchase skull back in malaysia? i need it to refresh my memory. The skull has tons of names.

Thanks in advance

Are you look for skull anatomical models or digital scanned pictures?

Anatomical models would be better

I used netters and b.d chaurassia during my first year. Used to come in 3 volumes. Not to sure about now though.

i use moore + gilroy(atlas). love gilroys pictures. =) netter is kinda messy for me.

regarding above, i've used chaurasia before and i think it's quite good...really simple to understand and made revising a breeze! especially the clinical references...

i was wondering also if anyone has done their clinical attachments?? mind sharing your experiences please...much much appreciated...

Okay i was told that mmc has approved us (foreign studying) students to do our practicals back home? How does the procedure go about?

As in what? Housemanship? everyone does that.

But if you are referring to practicals prior to graduating... then yes.

Here is an example:

Nop , im not speaking about housemanship. Practicals prior to graduating. Like last time people from indon/russia did their practical lessons during their break back at malaysia and a few years later MMC said that one should do their practical lesson at the place where he/she is studying right? So yeah today our president said that its official that we get to do our practicals back at home. Thats what i meant

totally! sometimes the arrows and stuff are too small and too many, and certain things like limbs look a little exaggerated even though it's to show surface markings.

Okay i just saw this. They are saying that as of April 12 if anyone desires to enter med school must have a minimum of 5B in spm ( add math chem bio phy and math ) 3.0 > in foundation and so on right.

So for those who joined med school before april 12 goes by the old ruling of 5credits , 3.0 and recognized uni?

And i got a friend which is leaving to indon soon. Sometime aug (which is after april 12) and he doesnt have the 5b's , but he'd get into a recognized uni by msia. Upon graduating , can he work back home ? he has a recognized degree , or will they still look at his spm even tho he is a doctor that has graduated by their listing. hmm irony much

he should not even be doing medicine.....should not be allowed to.....

no wonder there are hordes of indonesians leaving for spore and msian for treatment......

it's really sad that it's come to this. i personally want to encourage people to follow their dreams, not barred them from practicing after they graduate. Maybe malaysian school leavers need some serious counselling about career options.

it becomes a problem when the authorities fails (does NOT want) to control doctor training.....and every tom d*** and harry thinks he is 'passionate' about wanting to 'help people in africa' and thus should be allowed to be a doctor......and there are so MANY pathways which allows very weak students to enrol, study, and pass a medical course and automatically becoming a doctor..........

this is a phenomenon peculiar with some 3rd world countries, in particular msia (and apparent india as well)...........

it does NOT happen in developed countries........where prospective students are informed in no uncertain terms, that they will have to be the cream de la creame to even think about applying......and few backdoors left open...........

Medicine there cannot be compared to 3rd world countries (hence the name duh). Some universities even have 6 years courses. Not disagreeing, but I still can't see why u keep comparing obvious stuff like that. Fact is, you cannot expect top class treatment in every local clinic you walk in too. In fact, you might as well go on comparing everything they have in 1st world countries that we don't. It has always been that way, I don't see it changing anytime soon.

Wrong........it was never like this..........We did have good quality medical training.......and our graduates in the past were recognised in many countries......over the years we deteriorated......and this decay accelerated the last 10 years.......with the adoption of the airasia model.......now everybody can be a doctor.......

If one's attitude is like that, u are condemned to be 3rd world forever.......

10 years ago? Then where did those middle aged doctors in our local hospital come from? Do you think they're proficient enough?

And about the recognized graduates in other countries (if there are many at all), why do you think the numbers went down? Is it solely based on our education here, or is it rather their education?
